Juniper Cross Caern

Rank: 2
Caern Totem: The Juniper Tree
Community Totem: The People
Gauntlet: 4
Moon Bridge Distance: 1000 miles
Grid Jump: +hangout/jump Juniper

Special Mechanics:
• One People, One Tongue (Rank 1): Members of the Sept gain the ability to understand each other no matter the spoken language. This does not grant the ability to understand those outside of the Sept, without the appropriate language merit. Nor does it convey the ability to speak/read/write the language. Only to understand another Sept mate using it. Spirit Speech and other 'magical' languages are exempt from this Caern Power and must be learned the traditional way.
• Small, But Mighty (Rank 2 Power): NPC mortals of Juniper Cross are mechanically treated as Kinfolk in regards to lunacy and delerium. PC Kinfolk of the Sept gain enhanced resilience and begin play with attributes 7/5/3 and Abilities 13/9/5. In addition kinfolk who have obtained renown are able to join packs, and contribute one point of totem per dot of renown.

Notes:
The Closed Juniper Cross Community School represents a unique Caern type. The surrounding community has the unofficial totem of The People, and it works in a synergistic relationship with the Caern's Juniper Totem. The more you invest in the well being of the community, the stronger the Caern becomes.

The Forest Caern

Rank: 5
Caern Totem: Eldrin the Verdant, the Last Druid
Gauntlet: 3
Moon Bridge Distance: 10,000 miles
Grid Jump: +hangout/jump Forest

Special Mechanics:
• Successfully performing Rite of the Opened Caern grant +1 Health level per Caern's Rank (+5 in this instance). This is considered an extremely dangerous act, Caern's don't like giving up their power. Failing the rite can result in taking Caern levels in in Lethal damage, or even Agg in case of a botch. This is only to be done with Staff permission and the benefits only work in direct defense of the Caern.

Notes:
The area surrounding the Caern are regularly patrolled and home to the spirit Meridian who is irrevocably tied to the forest. The last spirit of the forest was killed by a Name Breaker (mage), and will not find a hospitable welcome here, nor should they so close to the Caern.
