Shifter Camps
Revision as of 18:38, 20 February 2020 by WhoopingCrane (talk | contribs)
Camps (aka houses, lodges, etc.) are optional sub-groups within tribes. A follower of a camp may still pack with others, but sometimes perform personal tasks for the camp, and maybe try to recruit his pack to help. (WtA 43)
Some camps are considerably more selective than others. This is a (not necessarily complete) list of camps, a brief summary of their mindset, and where to read about them in more detail.
