A lodge is a subdivision of a werewolf tribe, with specific beliefs and goals shared among its members.[1]

Overview[]

A lodge share a larger goal in common with the parent tribe, but have specific beliefs that may not be shared by all members.[2] An analogy is a tribe as Christianity, while each lodge represents a specific Christian sect such as Catholicism, Baptism, Anglicans, and the like.

Additionally, some few lodges cross tribal boundaries[2], analogous to how Christianity, originally an offshoot of Judaism, transcended to become a separate religion.

But no matter what kind of lodge a tribe member becomes part of, it doesn't sway his loyalty towards his tribe. But some Uratha does choose to keep her membership of a certain lodge a secret, rather than set themselves apart from their tribe mates.[2]

A member can only be a member of one lodge at a time and it is considered very dishonorable if a member quits one lodge only to become member of another.[2]

Lore of the Lodge[]

An adherent gains access to the hoarded resources of his Lodge: its repertoire of hunting traditions, secrets and armaments. Lodges can offer special training, unusual rites, potent fetishes and the like.

A Lodge usually possesses at least one rite, merit, or other advantage that an adherent can learn or gain, acquired at the usual cost in Experiences. Oaths, honor and secrecy mean that teaching the sacred arts and mysteries of a Lodge to a werewolf who is not an adherent is a grave crime; the mentor who breaks the sacred trust of his Lodge in this way suffers a Breaking Point towards Flesh, and the totem immediately becomes aware of his transgression. Even then, a non-adherent being taught in this way faces three times the usual cost in Experiences for the advantage. Plundering the secrets of a Lodge is an expensive and risky endeavor.

Non-adherents can make and use the unusual fetishes that a Lodge employs, with some rare exceptions, but an adherent finds it particularly easy to construct them. When an adherent constructs such an item with the Fetish Rite, she can add her highest Renown to the rite's dice pool.

As well as unique abilities, Lodge adherents may be able to access one or more of the Lodge Merits listed below. Not every Lodge has access to all of these Merits; the Merits that a Lodge can provide are listed in its entry.[3]

  • Lodge Armory (••• or •••••)
  • Lodge Connections (• to •••••)
  • Lodge Lorehouse (• to •••••)
  • Lodge Sorcery (••• or •••••)
  • Lodge Stronghold (•• or ••••)

Mots[]

Mots are lodges that are linked by theme, culture, and tradition[4]; they tend to be characterized by dangerous ritual oaths that bind the members to one another and, at times, to members of other packs or mots.[4] These groups are often locally-focused in nature.[4]
