<div class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" id="mw-customcollapsible-gmerit">
Welcome to the Renown page!
===Basic House Rules===
*Renown in W20 Core and W20 Changing Breeds is modified for MUSH play.<br>
The book is written for table-top play. MUSH players are daily contributors.<br>
With 24 hour play available, it's easier to accrue Renown.<br>
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 Litanies and Creeds are weighed for rewards vs loss.


{| class="wikitable sortable" border="1"
===Monthly Awards===
*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 chore and duty participation.
**+0.2 Honor (awarded if criteria is met).
*These awards are open to Fera and Garou alike.
*If you forget to request something right away, that's okay, but we'll only back-date renown by 30 days.
 
===Mystic/Crafting===
*You may earn Wisdom for teaching and learning rituals.
**+0.1 Wisdom per ritual taught (max 0.2 per month for teaching)
**+0.1 Wisdom per ritual learned (max 0.2 per month for learning)
*You may earn +0.1 Wisdom for crafting Talens and Fetishes.
**+0.1 Wisdom per batch of Talens made (max +0.2 per month for Talen crafting)
**+0.1 Wisdom per Fetish made (max +0.2 per month for Fetish crafting)
*These awards are open to Fera and Garou alike.
 
===Ranking requirements===
*Aside from renown point requirements for a new rank, staff has further stat and activity requirements for rank.
**Gaining rank isn't meant to be solely a means for more power and authority, it's a symbol of leadership and active duty to Gaia/Sea/Ananasi/etc.
*These requirements will be listed alongside each breed's renown charts.

=Garou Renown=
*These are samples and suggestions, not a fixed list of exact deeds and awards. Staff will use this as a guide and adjust accordingly to match the involvement of plots at hand and keep the game as balanced as possible.

''System:'' You receive three extra dice to resist attempts to manipulate your mind, and may spend a Willpower point to shake off the direct mental control of a vampire.

| W20 Core, pg 483
| ''Synopsis:'' You’ve got a knack for knowing when something bad is about to happen. <br>
''System:'' When you are in danger but not aware of it, the Storyteller should make a secret roll against your Perception + Alertness; the difficulty corresponds to the immediacy of the danger.

| General
| Social
| V20 Core, pg 487

|-
|-
| '''Mixed Morph'''
| Extreme Valor in the face of death || .25 Glory
| 1 or 5
| Shifter
| Physical
| W20 Core, pg 472
| ''Synopsis:'' You find the art of partial transformation relatively easy.<br>
''System:'' Make the required Dexterity + Primal Urge roll at difficulty 6 rather than difficulty 9 (W20 Core, pg 286). The five-point version of this Merit eliminates the need for a Willpower point; you can achieve partial transformation almost at will.<br>
''Notes:'' <br>
|-
|-
| '''Wolf Sight'''
| Surviving an incapacitating wound || .25 Glory
| 1
| Shifter
| Physical
| W20 Core, pg 472
| ''Synopsis:'' In all your forms, you see colors and intensities of light as a wolf does. Your color vision is slightly less distinct than that of humans, though you embrace the full spectrum of colors. Your night vision, however, far surpasses human nocturnal vision. You also notice movement more readily.<br>
''System:''  You gain an extra die to all visually-based Perception rolls that involve movement or take place at night.<br>
''Notes:'' <br>
|-
|-
| '''Bad Taste'''
| Exposing Wyrm-tainted kinfolk || .25 Glory
| 2
| Shifter
| Physical
| W20 Core, pg 472
| ''Synopsis:'' You are gamey to the palate and revolting to the taste buds; plainly put, you taste nasty.<br>
''System:'' Anyone who bites you (vampires, Garou, fomori, Wyrm monsters) is immediately nauseated. The biter must spend a Willpower point or retch uncontrollably for a scene. There is a drawback, however: lupus Garou and wolves are unlikely to lick or groom you, and even affectionate nibbles are affected by your foul flavor.<br>
''Notes:'' <br>
|-
|-
| '''Fair Glabro'''
| Exposing a Garou as Wyrm-tainted || 1 Wisdom
| 2
| Shifter
| Physical
| W20 Core, pg 472
| ''Synopsis:'' You have a Glabro form that can pass for human, though it’s still larger than normal people. <br>
''System:'' You have no penalties to Social Attributes in Glabro form.<br>
''Notes:'' <br>
|-
|-
| '''Lack of Scent'''
| Having and following a vision that benefits the Sept || .5 Wisdom
| 2
| Shifter
| Physical
| W20 Core, pg 472
| ''Synopsis:'' You either have no scent at all or only a very faint odor.<br>
''System:'' Any humans, animals, or Garou who attempt to track you by scent have a +2 difficulty to do so. You may find it difficult to deal with lupus Garou or wolves, as they tend to mistrust your lack of a “natural” scent.<br>
''Notes:'' <br>
|-
|-
| '''Natural Weapons'''
| Discovering Talens, Fetishes, Lost-Lore || .25-.75
| 3 or 4
|-
| Shifter
| Being asked to participate in a Moot or Rite || .25 Honor, .5 Wisdom
| Physical
| W20 Core, pg 473
| ''Synopsis:'' You are greatly in tune with your wolf physique. Your balance and physical acuity in Lupus form are greater than in Homid form.<br>
''System:'' Subtract one from the difficulty of any attack roll with an innate natural weapon (e.g., claw, bite, kick, etc.) when in Lupus form. However, add one to the difficulty of any such attacks made while in Homid form. There is no change to your attack rolls in other forms. This Merit costs 3 points for lupus or metis characters, and 4 points for homid Garou.<br>
''Notes:'' <br>
|-
|-
| '''Huge Size'''
| Being asked to help guard a caern || .25 Glory
| 4
| Shifter
| Physical
| W20 Core, pg 473<br>V20 Core, pg 480
| ''Synopsis:'' You stand close to 7’ tall and may weigh as much as 400 pounds in your Homid form; your other forms are also proportionately huge. <br>
''System:'' This Merit gives you an extra health level, which acts as an additional Bruised health level for purposes of calculating damage and wound penalties. Of course, with your immense size comes other problems (blending into a crowd, finding clothes that fit, fitting into an airplane seat, etc.).<br>
''Notes:'' <br>
|-
|-
| '''Metamorph'''
| Refusing to fight in defense of a caern || -.75 Glory, -.25 Honor
| 7
| Shifter
| Physical
| W20 Core, pg 473
| ''Synopsis:'' Shapechanging for you is as easy as breathing.<br>
''System:'' You do not need to roll to change forms, nor is it necessary to spend a Rage point for an instantaneous shift. You make your changes as if you scored five successes on your roll to shift forms. If you lose consciousness from wounds or for some other reason, you may roll Wits + Primal Urge (difficulty 8) to choose which form you assume rather than reverting to breed form.<br>
''Notes:'' <br>
|-
|-
| '''Berserker'''
| Serving your tribe faithfully monthly Sept Duties || .25 Honor
| 2
| Shifter
| Mental
| W20 Core, pg 476
| ''Synopsis:'' You have uncanny control over your inner anger, and can use your Rage as most Garou cannot.<br>
''System:'' You can enter a berserk frenzy at will, ignoring your wound penalties. You still suffer the consequences of any actions committed in the throes of frenzy. When circumstances might cause you to frenzy, you must make a standard roll to see if you do so or not.<br>
''Notes:'' My love for you is ticking clock, berserker!<br>
|-
|-
| '''Seldom Sleeps'''
| Maintaining Relations with other Kin that benefit Sept || .25 Wisdom
| 2
| Shifter
| Mental
| W20 Core, pg 476
| ''Synopsis:'' Whether due to a strong constitution, a frenetic nature, or even a hint of ancestral magic in your blood, you require significantly less sleep than the average Garou. While rest is still required after exertion, sleep is seldom necessary<br>
''System:''  One hour a night is fine, and even an hour every three days won’t make you more than a little bleary-eyed. You are not immune to sleep-causing supernatural effects, and you must still rest (no combat and no efforts requiring rolls) after using taxing rituals or Gifts. You are not always perky, bright-eyed, and bushy-tailed, but you suffer no penalties or ill effects from remaining awake for extended periods.<br>
''Notes:'' <br>
|-
|-
| '''Calm Heart'''
| Bearing Shifter Offspring (After Born) || .25 Honor, .25 Wisdom
| 3
| Shifter
| Mental
| W20 Core, pg 476<br>V20 Core, pg 485
| ''Synopsis:'' You remain calm and collected even in the most trying of circumstances.<br>
''System:'' You receive two extra dice when attempting to resist frenzy.<br>
''Notes:'' Actual rule intention: +2 diff to resist frenzy. White Wolf's text makes no sense, more dice would actually make it easier to frenzy.<br>
|-
|-
| '''Untamable'''
| Answering a request for sage advice || .25 Wisdom
| 5
| Shifter
| Mental
| W20 Core, pg 476
| ''Synopsis:'' You are a wild soul who has never bent to the leash.<br>
''System:'' You are immune to vampiric Domination (but not emotional manipulations via Presence) and these Gifts will not work on you: Roll Over, Obedience, and Mastery.<br>
''Notes:'' <br>
|-
|-
| '''Family Support
| Protecting Shifter not of your tribe || .25 Honor
| 1
| Shifter
| Social
| W20 Core, pg 479
| ''Synopsis:'' Your family knows what you are and accepts your new life wholeheartedly. Perhaps your parents are Kinfolk and have prepared themselves for the potential that you might be a full Garou. However they need not be actual Kin (of the sort purchased through the Kinfolk Background); they may not understand what you’ve become, but still believe you are “special” or “gifted.”<br>
''System:'' While you can’t assume they will risk themselves for you or your pack, you can rely on their moral support and understanding — and maybe a place to crash on occasion.<br>
''Notes:'' <br>
|-
|-
| '''Favor'''
| Rudeness || -25 Honor, -.25 Wisdom
| 1-3
| Shifter
| Social
| W20 Core, pg 479
| ''Synopsis:'' You have earned the favor of someone more powerful than yourself because of something you did in the past. Work out with your Storyteller who exactly owes you the favor — perhaps an elder of your sept, an influential member of your tribe, or even a powerful pack of Garou.<br>
''System:'' A 1-point Merit indicates that you provided a minor service; a 2-point Merit means that you have done something significant for them; a 3-point Merit probably means that you saved their life (or the life of someone important to them). You can ask for (and expect to receive) a similar level of favor in return. You can only call in this favor once; after that, your previous service holds no particular sway. While it stands, however, other Garou may know that someone important is indebted to you and react to you accordingly.<br>
''Notes:'' <br>
|-
|-
| '''Camp Goodwill'''
| Speaking Badly of Garou/Shifters of Sept || -.75 Wisdom
| 1
| Shifter
| Social
| W20 Core, pg 479
| ''Synopsis:'' You have earned the attention and favor of a particular Garou tribal camp (see pg. 491). Perhaps you’ve done them a favor, or maybe they’re trying to recruit you.<br>
''System:'' Regardless, all Social rolls when interacting with that camp are made at –1 difficulty. You may not be a member of this camp when you first take this Merit, although you can become recruited into the camp during play at the Storyteller’s discretion. You may take this Merit multiple times for different camps, and may take it for tribal camps other than your own tribe, each with the Storyteller’s approval.<br>

|-
|-
| '''Animal Magnetism'''
| Acting without Honor || -.25 to -1.25 Honor
| 2
| Shifter
| Social
| W20 Core, pg 480
| ''Synopsis:'' Others of your breed (humans if you’re homid, wolves if you’re lupus; metis should pick either humans or wolves, not Garou) find you especially attractive.<br>
''System:'' Your rolls to attract, persuade, charm, or seduce those individuals is at –2 difficulty. This effect does not apply to threatening or intimidating actions.<br>

| ''Synopsis:'' Your direct family line is particularly renowned, either in Garou society or in the human world. You must choose (with your Storyteller’s approval) which world your heritage relates to, and detail your family line accordingly.<br>
=Rank Charts and Requirements=
''System:'' You are at –1 difficulty to all Social rolls when working in the appropriate society (with Garou and Kinfolk who are aware of werewolf society, or when dealing with humans who are aware of your heritage). You are expected to live up to your lineage’s reputation. If you fail to do so, you may find the Merit dwindling over time as stories of your own failings begin to outweigh the high regard your family receives. This Merit may not be taken by Bone Gnawers.<br>

| Shifter

| W20 Core, pg 480
| ''Synopsis:'' Your reputation among the Garou of your sept does you credit. You may have earned this good name independently, or through the actions of your pack.<br>
''System:'' When you deal with the Garou of your sept, you gain three extra dice to your Social dice pools. Reputation should not be confused with Renown; you may have a good “name” with your sept while possessing relatively little Renown. You may not take the Flaw: Notoriety.<br>

''System:'' Because of your reputation as a reliable messenger, you can pass through other Garou territories without your presence causing offense, and you may be allowed into any sept (or other locale where your reputation is respected, such as spirit courts or Fera holdings) unchallenged, as long as you carry a message for someone residing there. However, you are expected to behave in accordance with your reputation; if you take offensive actions, act indiscreetly, or speak rudely while in the line of duty, it may affect how you are treated (and may cause the Storyteller to deem that you lose this Merit).<br>

| Shifter
| Social
| W20 Core, pg 480
| ''Synopsis:'' You have a friend or ally who happens to be a vampire, mage, wraith, changeling, or other non-werewolf supernatural creature.<br>
''System:'' Although you may call upon her in time of need, she also has the right to call upon you (after all, you are friends). This relationship, however, does not have the sanction of your kind or hers, and you’ll likely face scandal — or worse — if you are found out. Meeting places and methods of communication are always risky. The Storyteller creates and controls your companion, but does not reveal to you her full powers (or secret motivations).<br>

Flesh out your special ancestor with a name, personality characteristics, significant abilities or powers, details about her life, and her reputation among Garou. To purchase this Merit, you must have Ancestors as a Background.<br>

Obey the Mother-Queen in All Things<br>
| ''Synopsis:'' You naturally attract the attention of the spirits whenever you cross the Gauntlet into the Umbra. Most of the time, the Umbral inhabitants are simply curious, gathering around you to see who you are and what you’re doing in their “neck of the woods.” Occasionally you attract more than you bargained for — Banes are also likely to come calling.<br>

| '''True Love'''

| Shifter

| Supernatural

| W20 Core, pg 483
| ''Synopsis:'' You have a true love — a Kinfolk, human, wolf, or perhaps even another Garou. Simply the knowledge that this individual exists provides joy and strength to you even in the darkest hour. The Wyrm may be winning, the battle may be endless, but you know there is something beyond the esoteric to keep fighting for. When you are suffering, the thought of your true love gives you strength.<br>
''System:'' In game terms, this Merit allows you one automatic success on any Willpower roll, but only when you are actively striving to protect or come closer to your true love. Also, the power of your love may be strong enough to protect you from other supernatural forces (at the Storyteller’s discretion). However, having a true love may also be a hindrance, and they may require aid (or even rescue) from time to time. True Love between Garou (even if it is not acted upon) may be seen as near-enough to a breach of the Litany to cause scorn or even scandal if it is suspected by others, making it appropriate justification for a Dark Secret Flaw as well.<br>

Share what you know.<br>
''System:'' This can come in handy when being chased; not only are pursuers unlikely to confuse a man for a woman, but the character’s scent even changes in order to throw off Garou and other keen-nosed hunters. Aside from the sex switch, this doesn’t grant a radical change in appearance — both sexes have similar features and look sufficiently alike to be siblings.<br>

''System:'' You and your Storyteller should work together on constructing the item and establishing how it came into your possession. Five points equals a Level One fetish, six points a Level Two fetish, and seven points a Level Three fetish. If you do not have the Gnosis Merit, you may not be able to attune the Fetish to yourself or use it.<br>

| W20 Core, pg 383
| ''Synopsis:'' More than any other blessing, the possession of Gnosis among Kin is a special mark of Gaia’s favor. It’s extremely rare for mortals to be so gifted. Having Gnosis grants many privileges, such as the ability to learn a broader range of Gifts, use fetishes, and — if Embraced by a vampire — the chance to die with dignity and honor, rather than suffer unlife.<br>
''System:'' Kinfolk lucky enough to possess Gnosis recover it in the same manner as Garou. Five points spent on the Merit grants one point of Gnosis; six points, two points of Gnosis; and seven points, three points of Gnosis.<br>

| W20 Kinfolk, pg 64
| ''Synopsis:'' This Merit is not intended for mortal Kinfolk. If, however, you intend to play a vampire, mage, wraith, or changeling character who is also Kinfolk, you must purchase this Merit. Despite your supernatural status, your Garou tribe (or other Changing Breed) accepts you as Kin. They may not rejoice in it, but they don’t automatically deny or reject you. Individuals outside your family, including other Garou, may not like you. Other tribes may not acknowledge you as Kin. Most Garou view mages as Gnosis-raiders. They see vampires as Wyrm-spawn, wraiths as un-natural, and changelings as untrustworthy. In fact, you may experience a conflict of interest in walking a fine line between your two supernatural worlds. You find, nevertheless, that there is merit in knowing about both your supernatural and your Kinfolk backgrounds.<br>
''System:'' Supernatural Kinfolk costs four points for mages, changelings, and wraiths. Vampire Kinfolk costs 5 points due to the inherent hostility between Garou and Kindred. Sometimes even family ties are hard-pressed to bridge the gap between the two gestalts. Kinfolk characters created with the standard rule (i.e., those who are not either dead, Awakened, Embraced, or Kithain), may not have this Merit. It is reserved exclusively for characters constructed as wraiths, vampires, mages or changelings based upon the rules for those games.<br>

| ''Synopsis:'' You have flashes of insight that allow you to see patterns and portents of the Jyhad. Whilst other Kindred live their unlives in ignorant bliss, you feel the full weight of the Ancients bear down on you.<br>
''System:'' You see patterns in the lines of someone’s face, currents of air, or dreams you have during the day. Whilst these patterns are ever present, they are couched in symbolism, and interpreting them requires a [Perception + Occult] roll. The difficulty of this roll varies from six to nine, depending on the complexity of the pattern. Seeing the immediate future is difficulty 7, whilst unraveling diffuse manipulations is difficulty 9. Close familiarity with the people involved, or a recurrence of the same pattern, lowers the difficulty by one. If the roll is successful, the blood matures the player asks the Storyteller a question about the omens observed. More successes yield more information (i.e. “That man is your enemy” versus “That man is your enemy, because he hates your sire”). Failure yields no information, while a botch yields perfectly believable yet false information.
 
This Merit grants insight into Cainite affairs only, though these are widespread indeed. Your Storyteller is encouraged to use this Merit to foreshadow events, reveal plot threads, or simply reiterate missed clues. Alternatively, you can ask the Storyteller if you see a pattern around a subject.<br>

''System:'' This Merit should be played like a 1-dot Mentor with a specific interest. However, unlike a Mentor, Useful Knowledge does not imply a permanent relationship.<br>

| ''Synopsis:'' You spend an unusual amount of time in Elysium. You see and are seen to such an extent that all of the movers and shakers of Elysium at least know who you are. <br>
''System:'' Extended time spent in Elysium also gives you extended opportunities to interact with the Harpies and other Kindred of that stature — and they’ll know your name when you approach them. This Merit is generally taken by vampires that respect and attend Elysium on a regular basis.<br>

''System:'' The publicity can be good or bad; what matters is that everybody knows your name. Whether individuals outside of your immediate social circle know enough to match your face to your name is a different matter.<br>

''System:'' You only have that single favor owed you (unless you take the Merit multiple times), so using it properly is of paramount importance. Depending on status and other factors, the vampire who owes you a favor may well resent his debt, and might go out of his way to “settle” it early — even going so far as to create situations from which he must “rescue” you and thus clear the slate.<br>

''System:'' He’s inclined to overlook your minor trespasses and let you in on things you’re not supposed to know about. He even gives you warnings about occasional crack downs and times when the higher-ups aren’t feeling generous. Of course, abusing this connection might well turn a friendly vampire into an enemy — and the change might not be apparent until it’s too late.<br>

Renown House Rules

Welcome to the Renown page!

Basic House Rules

  • Renown in W20 Core and W20 Changing Breeds is modified for MUSH play.

The book is written for table-top play. MUSH players are daily contributors.
With 24 hour play available, it's 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 Litanies and Creeds are weighed for rewards vs loss.

Monthly Awards

  • 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 chore and duty participation.
    • +0.2 Honor (awarded if criteria is met).
  • These awards are open to Fera and Garou alike.
  • If you forget to request something right away, that's okay, but we'll only back-date renown by 30 days.

Mystic/Crafting

  • You may earn Wisdom for teaching and learning rituals.
    • +0.1 Wisdom per ritual taught (max 0.2 per month for teaching)
    • +0.1 Wisdom per ritual learned (max 0.2 per month for learning)
  • You may earn +0.1 Wisdom for crafting Talens and Fetishes.
    • +0.1 Wisdom per batch of Talens made (max +0.2 per month for Talen crafting)
    • +0.1 Wisdom per Fetish made (max +0.2 per month for Fetish crafting)
  • These awards are open to Fera and Garou alike.

Ranking requirements

  • Aside from renown point requirements for a new rank, staff has further stat and activity requirements for rank.
    • Gaining rank isn't meant to be solely a means for more power and authority, it's a symbol of leadership and active duty to Gaia/Sea/Ananasi/etc.
  • These requirements will be listed alongside each breed's renown charts.

Garou Renown

  • These are samples and suggestions, not a fixed list of exact deeds and awards. Staff will use this as a guide and adjust accordingly to match the involvement of plots at hand and keep the game as balanced as possible.
