Specifically player characters usually are supposed to have undergone some training as Garou and succeeded in an initiation rite known as the Rite of Passage.

If anyone has any questions feel free to ask as I'm a huge fan of WtA (more so than VtM though I do love both) and have access to every book they ever released for the game.Werewolf: The Apocalypse is a role-playing game from the Classic World of Darkness line by White Wolf Publishing. You can check out the Heart of Gaia cutscenes on youtube wihich I do recommend for people unfamiliar to get a rough idea about the setting. I've been waiting for something with this IP as far back as Heart of Gaia which was another Werewolf game that got canned. Still, I'm glad I'm getting any kind of werewolf game as their are almost none on the market. from assassins to investigators to "warriors of Gaia (mother earth essentially who is why the garou exist in the first place) and even to mostly healing the land and the people. I'm a bit sad they removed a lot of the character creation as their are many tribes of werewolves that are very different as well as plenty of different ways they can be played out. The game is looking to be in a third person perspective. Interaction with spirits as well as other garou and even normal humans will be a heavy part of the game. Frenzy will give massive bonuses to combat but at a cost of losing control and attacking friends and foes indiscriminately.ġ2. Rage will be the blood pool mechanic equivalent with the player needing to balance their rage and handle the cost/benefit of going into frenzy. Fomori, humans who are possessed by evil Wyrm spirits (called Banes) are in the game.ġ1. Not that some vampires aren't on a Pentex company board, but the majority are just humans twisted by the Wyrm (the cosmic "evil" entity) empowered.ġ0. They deviate a bit from the lore by making the majority of board members vampires (so vampires are in the game). Pentex is basically your stereotypical evil corporation that has the backing of a cosmic being of entropy. Main villain is a Pentex subsidiary called Endron Oil. In this case the Caern ( a magical site that werewolves protect as they serve as a strong connection to the Umbra as well as a place of power for Garou and other beings).ĩ. Focus more on giving players the freedom to choose how they want to play (stealthy, gadgets or pure combat) rather than doing it through a typical RPG system.Ĩ.

Lupus = stealth, fast travel, scouting and investigating the spirit realm (Umbra)ħ. Human form = stealth, gadgets, dialogue interaction Dialogue and story will be linear as well instad of more open ended like Bloodlines to allow for a more coherent story (don't necessairly agree it has to be this way). Homid (human), Crinos (big scary werewolf monster form) and lupus (regular wolf form).ĥ. Will be able to change into 3 of the 5 forms. Story revolves around the character's son going missing and he goes to investigate.Ĥ. The Fianna are essentially irish and irish related werewolves that have a strong tie to the fae (changelings, which is another game provided by White Wolf) that are very passionate.ģ. The character is a man of irish heritage and is part of the Fianna tribe (this is the clan equivalent with vampire). Static character about a garou (what the werewolves refer to themselves as a people) who went Ronin (which is a garou that either chooses to leave their pack or to be ostracized). I've posted this information in other topics in the past but don't remember which one's.Īnyways, here's all the info we know thus far about the game.ġ.
