Shifter/renown

Renown House Rules Renown in WWCore 20th is modified for MUSH play. The book is written for table-top play. MUSH players are daily contributors. With 24 hour play, it is easier to accrue Renown. Therefore, renown tables have been modified for story pacing value. Renown is modified based on Rank Level and story value. The Spirits are the ultimate judges for Renown based on deeds. Shifter Litany and Creed is weighed for rewards vs loss. Monthly participation in a ST event/story is required to earn monthly Sept duties & responsibilities rewards. You may submit a monthly renown request for Sept Duty participation. +0.2 Honor (awarded if criteria is met). You may earn temporary Wisdom for teaching rituals. +0.1 Wisdom per ritual (max +0.2 per month for teaching 2+). You may earn temporary Wisdom for learning rituals. +0.1 Wisdom per ritual (max +0.2 per month for learning 2+). You may craft 1 talen per week if linked to story events/missions. +0.1 Wisdom per talen (max +0.2 per month for making 2+) Talens are crafted for missions and the spirit releases when it's complete. Recommended: Share the Talen making with your sphere mates! Recommended: Make a variety of Talens by coordinating with others. Talens must be +noted and approved by staff before use. Spirits do not live in talens forever for stock-piling. Timed agreement must be made. Learning Rites: You may learn only one rite at a time. Learning Rites: You may opt out of xp cost for Rite learning at a cost of waiting 1 week x ritual level. Otherwise, you may earn it immediately with xp cost. Learning Gifts: You may learn only one gift at a time with xp. Learning Gifts: It takes 1 week x gift rank level to learn it. You may earn temporary Wisdom for Fetish Making monthly. +0.1 Wisdom per Fetish (max +0.2 per month for making 2 Fetishes) You may craft a Fetish equal or lower than your Shifter Rank with no penalty. Requires appropriate Rites. You may craft up to 2 Fetishes monthly that are between Rank 1-3. (2 week wait per fetish, capped 2 per month.) You may craft a rank 4 fetish with a 1 month wait period. You may craft a rank 5 fetish with a 2 month wait period. For every level the fetish is above the creators own rank, add one month to represent the extensive effort of getting the materials, research, and finagling spirit assistance. So a rank 3 character making a rank 4 fetish would take 2 months versus the single month it would normally take a rank 4 character. House Rules are subject to change upon staff review. We do our best to measure best practices for our gaming community. Back to Top Garou Renown Types of Renown: Glory, Honor, Wisdom.
