Damage and Health

Silver

Silver weapons inflict aggravated damage. Werewolves must be wounded by these weapons, contact is not sufficient. The silver must be sufficiently pure. Silver is a poor choice of materials and imposes a -1 penalty for use of the weapon.

Regeneration

  • Regenerate 1 Bashing at the beginning of action for the turn (reflexive).
  • May spend 1 Essence to regenerate 1 Lethal INSTEAD of 1 bashing (reflexive). This may be done even when unconscious.
  • Without spending Essence, 1 lethal is regenerated every 15 minutes.
  • Aggravated is healed at 1 point per week.
  • Dead/unconscious Uratha immediately revert to Hishu.
  • Immune to mundane infection and disease.

Drugs, Toxins, Poisons and Diseases

The Werewolf line is not entirely clear on this. However:

  • Werewolves are immune to all mundane diseases. Supernatural ones may still affect them, but will probably be affected by a Werewolf's regeneration rate.
  • Werewolves are not immune to, but are resistant to most mundane and supernatural poisons, gaining a +2 to any roll to resist, which stacks with the Merit Toxin Resistance. They may also experience a reduced duration when it comes to the effects of drugs, both positive and negative.
  • Werewolves may spend a point of essence to purge themselves of one dose of any drug, toxin or poison. In the case of toxins or poisons, this reduces the toxicity rating by 1. Reducing it 0 completely purges the Uratha's system.
  • Yes, this means Werewolves have a hard time getting drunk, so go ahead and kill your liver with massive amounts of alcohol.

Renown

Dots in tribally affiliated renown earn you brownie points among others of your tribe.

Total Renown Dots Honorary Rank Among Spirits
0-7 2
8-15 3
16-23 4
24 or more 5

Shapeshifting

Shifting: Stamina (Hishu) + Survival + PU, Instant (ES: Reflexive action), OR Spend 1 Essence for automatic, Reflexive, OR automatic Reflexive under Auspice moon.

  • Returning to Hishu is always a Reflexive action without a roll
  • Automatic reversion to Hishu when knocked out or killed
  • Fighting Style Merits usable only in Hishu and Dalu
