The werecat Renown fits fairly well with their feline nature.  Based on individual achievement first and foremost, the cats do not concern themselves too much with their servitude to Gaia when measuring Renown.  Their three categories are as follows.

===Cunning===
 +
Cunning is awarded through the werecat's capability to discover secrets, manipulate rivals, her riddle craft abilities, or her commercial talent.
 +
 
 +
| style="vertical-align: top; width: 30%; padding-right: 25px" |
 +
===Ferocity===
 +
Ferocity is awarded through cool and conquest; the Bastet's abilities of being a bad ass with an attitude, pure and simple.
 +
 
 +
| style="vertical-align: top; width: 30%" |
 +
===Honor===
 +
To gain Honor Renown, Bastet must display that they are loyal and honest, but also prideful.

=Rank Requirements=
 +
Advances in rank are awarded at a taghairm, though it is not unusual for solitary cats to demand an increase in rank, and have their petition granted by spirits, who they bring the word to elders of the cat in question.  If they agree, the rank is awarded to him. In either case the Bastet has to perform a Rite of Recognition.

If a player is approved at Rank 0 and then goes through their First Year to Rank 1, then they gain gifts and renown as usual for Rank 1 and their Breed/Tribe, assuming they have earned their first Rank.
 
* These gifts don't cost XP.
 
* Any previous renown unconnected to the Rite of Passage is retained on top of the rank baseline.

Revision as of 22:03, 16 September 2023

  • A Guide to submitting Renown Requests.
  • A Renown FAQ if you have questions about the system


Renown

Source: Players Guide to the Changing Breeds pg.#169

The werecat Renown fits fairly well with their feline nature. Based on individual achievement first and foremost, the cats do not concern themselves too much with their servitude to Gaia when measuring Renown. Their three categories are as follows.

Categories

Cunning

Cunning is awarded through the werecat's capability to discover secrets, manipulate rivals, her riddle craft abilities, or her commercial talent.

Ferocity

Ferocity is awarded through cool and conquest; the Bastet's abilities of being a bad ass with an attitude, pure and simple.

Honor

To gain Honor Renown, Bastet must display that they are loyal and honest, but also prideful.

Creeds

Cunning

The Clever Cat's Creed

  • I shall be silent and quick
  • I shall watch my own shadow
  • I shall follow the whispers
  • And survive, learn and prosper

How good is a werecat at discovering hidden secrets? How well can she manipulate rivals? Is she good at riddles or successful at business? If she excels this way, she wins her Renown. A cunning cat is a famous cat. Cunning measures a Bastet's skill for misdirection, trivia, wits and bravado. If you're good at pranks, puzzles and hidden meanings, the others will recall your name.

(Category was originally called 'Cleverness' in Breedbook: Bastet)

Ferocity

The Warrior's Chant

  • I shall stand my ground
  • Govern my hatred
  • Master my fury
  • And scatter foes to the wind

Bastet are not the warriors that Garou are, and their quests are far more personal. Even so, combat savvy, strength and raw savagery are prized among the cat-folk. Ferocity measures a Bastet's temper, kills and sheer attitude. You don't have to be nine feet tall to have a fierce reputation. Sometimes, you just have to look fierce. A few withering stares and dark rumors will have others making room at the fire.

Honor

The Code of the Honorable Folk

  • I shall be bound by my word
  • I shall act with good grace
  • I shall govern my tongue
  • And defend those like myself

Some say cats have no honor. They lie, of course - most people just don't understand cats well enough to see it. An honorable Bastet knows her responsibilities, sets a code and lives by those rules. She helps both friends and strangers, pursues justice when need be, and acts fairly and with integrity. Some tribes, especially the Khan, Pumonca and Bagheera, set a lot of store by Honor; any monster can kill people, and any sneak can live by her wits. To be a true Bastet, you must be loual, honest, and full of pride. Let the dogs roll in blood - you're better than that.

Rank Requirements

Advances in rank are awarded at a taghairm, though it is not unusual for solitary cats to demand an increase in rank, and have their petition granted by spirits, who they bring the word to elders of the cat in question. If they agree, the rank is awarded to him. In either case the Bastet has to perform a Rite of Recognition.

Rank Any Combination
1 (Tekhmet) 3
2 (Akaa) 10
3 (Tilau) 15
4 (Ilani) 20
5 (Bon Bhat) 25


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 the Bastet's purpose, then go ahead and submit a request.

  • Awards given once per combat, not per enemy

The following types have been tinted for ease of reading and browsing:

  • These awards and penalties are directly from the established renown lists found in Players Guide to the Changing Breeds pgs.#170-173

Items in Black are positive renown awards.

Items in Red are negative renown penalties

  • These awards and penalties are directly from the established renown lists found in Players Guide to the Changing Breeds pgs.#170-173
