=Litany of Survival=
 
*'''Preserve The Veil, Which Ensures Your Survival'''
 
:The Rats only have one dictum that's enforced as law: maintaining secrecy about the existence of our kind. If you disobey, it'll do far more than endanger your pack; it threatens everyone's existence. Of course, if the humans find out the truth about what you did, the Delirium might distort all of their memories of what happened, but other supernatural creatures who prey on humans are not so easily fooled. Our race has little regard for human law, but if a wererat breaks the laws flagrantly enough that the authorities investigate, a colony has every rite to contract a Knife-Skulker to silence him... Permanently.
 
----
 
*'''Shred The Wyrm's Tentacles Whenever They Constrict You'''
 
:We fight the Wyrm, but only in the interest of our own self-defense. Unlike the Garou, we don't launch into self-serving crusades to purify the world from corruption - fighting to survive is difficult enough. The Garou whip themselves into religious fervor because they are trying to prevent the apocalypse, but we want the End Times to come. What else could heal the world? My Warriors rejoice when the Wyrm kills off Garou or destroys a few humans. Why not? As long as the Wyrm isn't directly threatening your tribe, leave it be. Don't destroy the enemy of your enemy... until it turns on you. The Wyrm is destined to destroy itself, and if it tears down human civilization in the process, my pack's got no problem with that.
 
:A rat's got to be watchful of the Wyrm. You cannot ignore its presence - learning from its minions is essential to survival. The servitors of the Wyrm corrupt our kind as well, more often than most would care to admit. Wererats corrupted by the Wyrm become monstrous, taking on many of the same deformities and afflictions as Fomori - I've seen it first hand. Believe me, any Ratkin infected with Wyrm-taint must be found and killed before it infiltrates one of our breeding grounds. If Black Spirals or Wyrm spirits came sniffing around our territoru, we're honor-bound to protect our young. And, of course, the most valiant of Rat's aspects, the Plague Lords, feels duty-bound to infiltrate the ranks of our enemies and investigate first-hand...
 
----
 
*'''Sever the Weaver's Threads Wherever They Calcify Chaos'''
 
:Hey, I don't think we're ever going to tear down all the cities in the world. Why bother? They're doomed to self-destruct. The day that the buildings come crashing down, I'll dance in the streets. Then again, there's nothing wrong with giving them a little push. One rat cant change the world, but a thousand rats can, right? If you want to know what the Weaver's spirits are really up to, take a peach into the spirit world. That'll tell you where to strike.
 
----
 
*'''Survive So That You May Breed'''
 
:Survival cocmes first. Mankind's days are numbered. The end of the Age of Man is coming! You might believe it's going to happen during your lifetime or years from now, but if you die in some pointless fight for honor and glory, you wont be ready for the Final Battle against the Wyrm. If you waste your life, you'll end up as some dumb-ass spirit in the Umbra. If, however, you can develop your skills as a Warrior, you'll be able to pass on what you learn to the generations that follow you. Let the werewolves fight to the death, I intend to live.
 
----
 
*'''Respect Strength. Exploit Weakness'''
 
:The strong breed. The weak die. Does that sound harsh? That's evolution. We must be stronger than our enemies, especially with the Final Days so close. If we let the weakest rats survive, they'll breed thousands and thousands of even weaker rats. Instinct will tell you when to kill, so follow it. You'll also feel an overriding need to breed - do it. We need an army to overwhelm our enemies. Too many of the other Changing Breeds have given up, but we must outnumber and overwhelm anything that gets in our way. Then, when the time is right, the force of the Wyld will overwhelm everything, returning us to the ideals of the Impergium.
 
:Some Ratkin have taken their obligation to breed a bit too far, spawning with materialized spirits and the like. I still do not know if this is wise. Does it strengthen the race by bringing more lost aspects to the world, or is it a way for "weaker" Ratkin to breed more children? Other wererats use similar excuses to destroy our metis. After all, Ratkin bred from incestuous relationships are rarely "strong"; instead, such children are usually more susceptible to disease. I firmly believe we need all the warriors we can get, but don't waste too much time on the metis. They are little more than shock troops, and that is the way it should be.
 
----
 
*'''Conflict Breeds Strength'''
 
:If only the strong breed, then you must prove your strength before you can reproduce. Don't be some addle-witted warf rat who breeds with any half-dead body in the sewers. You, soldier, are the paragon of your race. You have the option of breeding with common rats, desperately trying to diversify our gene pool, but it's fairly likely that all you'll do is create a lot of common baby rats who vaguely look like you. Such egotism! If you want the glory of breeding strong kits, remember: The strongest children come from the purest Kinfolk. Our purest Kin are kept under the watchful gaze of the Rat Mothers, so you'd best have proof of your prowess before trying to reproduce. It's that simple.
 
:Regardless of what we do, the population of any nest eventually reaches a sort of 'critical mass', when all of the wererats who come of age must victimize each other until the balance is restored. That is nature's way. If the population of creatures in any one area is too high, a few can be killed or a great number will starve. Now that the Age of Man is drawing to a close, of course, humans and rats are competing for the same resources in the largest cities. You can see where I'm going with this, cant you? When the Age of Man ends, the law demands the elimination of the weakest creatures... just like in the Impergium, before the Wolves intervened. Only then will the balance be restored.
 
----
 
*'''Build, Steal, and Suborn To Strengthen Your Breeding Grounds'''
 
:Property is relative. If I can take it, it's mine. If you cant defend it, you don't deserve to have it. Humans don't seem to understand. They buy far more than they need, go to great lengths to defend what they have, and insist that they have the right to determine who owns what. Not very practical, is it? If you own more than you can carry, you're wasting what others can use. The humans are wasting what they've got, so we've got every right to take it.
 
----
 
*'''Trust Your Own Kind Before Outsiders'''
 
:Here's a word of advice before you go out into the world. Trust your Kin before  you trust strangers. Betray others before you betray your own kind. If someone's going to be betrayed, choose a human as the victim before you choose a Ratkin. If that doesn't work, find some other shapechanger to frame. If that doesn't work, then remember there's a straggler in your pack. We're running into the world together kid, so we've got to stick together. You ready to go? Um... You first...
 
----
 
*'''When Someone Is Responsible For Injustice, Make Sure Someone Pays'''
 
:When a rat pack fails, someone's got to take the consequences. Hopefully, it will be someone weak; preferably, it'll be someone who isn't Ratkin. Some of us like to take this argument a bit further. The Twitchers, for instance, are really quick to place all blame on the humans, so punishing them at random is seen as justice. The term "race war" isn't really appropriate, since Twitchers don't discriminate based on the color of someone's skin, his religion, or his ancestry. White, black, yellow or red - humans bleed the same. I just feel this rage in my blood that's been there since the dawn of time. And I just feel like acting on it. Show me your true face, and it's my call whether I want to slash it off.
