- A Guide to submitting Renown Requests.
- A Renown FAQ if you have questions about the system.
Categories
Glory
- I shall be valorous
- I shall be dependable
- I shall be generous
- I shall protect the weak
- I shall slay the Wyrm
Defeating mighty enemies and succeeding at noble quests are both ways to gain Glory. Fighting on through overwhelming odds and triumphing will ensure the Garou his fair share of Glory. But just the fighting isn't enough. The cause must be clear, and, in the end, you must never surrender, regardless of the cost. Many young Garou have found their Glory stripped for entering into fights they could not hope to win. The best way to win great Glory is by attempting the impossible, and living to tell the tale. Even so, a grand death gives the deceased a large share of the Glory they strove for in life.
|
Honor
- I shall be respectful
- I shall be loyal
- I shall be just
- I shall live by my word
- I shall accept all fair challenges
Honor is the moral imperative to uphold the laws of the Garou. It refers to a fundamental belief in the wisdom of society's laws, up to and including the ultimate standard of Garou behavior: the Litany. To gain Honor Renown in Garou society shows an individual to be of honesty, integrity and respect. Honor can sometimes be a rare trait, but werewolves strive to maintain their honor with ferocity for fear of losing it.
Werewolves on the path of Honor hold themselves to the highest possible standards. They don't do so to feel superior to others, for the Garou who looks down his nose at his compatriots finds his Honor Renown slow to rise, while those who tolerate the braggart soon surpass him.
Honor requires a large share of self-control, not only to uphold strict principles when easier alternatives abound, but also to keep from falling into a frenzy. When berserk, a Garou is capable of all sorts of evil, and more than a few young Garou have awakened to find themselves covered in blood and bereft of honor.
|
Wisdom
- I shall be calm
- I shall be prudent
- I shall be merciful
- I shall think before I act and listen before I think
Garou with a reputation for Wisdom are the ones most likely to be listened to and deferred to at moots. High Wisdom Renown marks a character who thinks through her words and actions before sharing them, and is adept at sensing when others have not done the same.
Werewolves rich in both wisdom and glory are a rare breed. The two ate often at odds, with the glory-seekers charging into battle at any opportunity and those who quest for Wisdom picking their battles carefully. Both have their advantages, but those who lose on the quest for Wisdom are most likely to be able to try again. A werewolf who is both wise and valorous knows when to fight and how, and he is, therefore, the most valuable of allies.

If a player is approved at Rank 0 and then goes through a Rite of Passage to Rank 1, then they gain gifts and renown as usual for Rank 1 and their breed/tribe/auspice.
- These gifts don't cost XP.
- Any previous renown unconnected to the Rite of Passage is retained on top of the auspice baseline.
Sample Renown Awards
Note: These are not uniformly objective. They may be rejected/reduced/increased based on circumstances.
Note: These are not exhaustive. If something doesn't seem to fit here, or isn't found in this list, but still serves one of these types and Gaia's purpose, then go ahead and submit a request.
The following types have been tinted for ease of reading and browsing:
- These awards and penalties are directly from the established renown lists, with changes limited to specifying Garou use.
Items in Black are positive renown awards.
Items in Red are negative renown penalties
- These awards and penalties have been either created from scratch, or taken from lists and more heavily modified for Garou use.
Items in Blue are positive home-brew renown awards
Items in Purple are negative home-brew renown penalties
