Werewolves
From Sinanju
Return to Notes
Werewolves (Garou) have the same attributes as normal humans (Brawn, Guts, Wits, and Luck). In addition, werewolves have two additional attributes; Rage, which is a measure of the beast's power, and Gnosis, which is a measure of the werewolf's connection to the spirit world.
