Nunnehi House Rules

FW Nunnehi House Rules
2/17/2013

(i) Philosophy
Nunnehi can be a complementary genre for Werewolf:the Apocalypse. Nunnehi have a similar history to the native Garou tribes, and share much of the same worldview. Sheets which are not complementary to Werewolf will not be approved (IE: If your character can't get along with Garou, there's little point in allowing him). Nunnehi can have background in Totems, can travel to the Umbra, and can fully join Garou packs.

We will have three slots for Nunnehi as a trial run. If these characters can integrate themselves and function well in the game, then more will be allowed. While we may end the Fae experiment, any sheets we approve will remain playable even after we abort.

(ii)
Character Gen:
Same as usual, 5 Freebies, 30xp

The following Families are allowed for play in Falling Waters:
Canotili, Inuas, May-may-gway-shi*, Nanehi, Pu'gwis, Rock Giants*, Surems, Thought Crafters, Tunghat*, Yunwi Tsundsi*

* = Accepted as part of local (Six Nations) mythology

(iii)
Backgrounds & Powerz

Totem - May only learn Totems listed in Shining Host Players Guide unless specifically approved by ST

At Character Generation, all Nunnehi select three Arts as “Family” Arts. These Arts are purchased at usual cost and do not require a teacher. Other Arts cost 1xp more per dot and require a teacher.

Arts - The following Arts are banned for Nunnehi PCs:
Aphrodesia, Sovereign, Chronos, Naming, Dreamcraft.

Art (Chicanery): Captive Heart -- A target of this cantrip may only retest with willpower once per hour.

Art (Primal): Elder Form -- You do not require Holly Strike in order to learn this power.

Art (Pyretics): Second Basic is Willow Light --

This cantrip will allow you to illuminate or cast auras of light upon objects or places. With this cantrip you can cause objects or people to glow, or even cause an entire place to become lit by this phosphorescence. This effect will last for one hour for each point of Glamour spent on its creation and has an intensity equal to the number of bunk traits used when activating the power.

1 Bunk Trait -- Dim light (Christmas tree light)
2 Bunk Traits -- Visible light (60 watt bulb)
3 Bunk Traits -- Bright light (100 watt bulb)
4 Bunk Traits -- Incandescent light (Halogen bulb)
5 Bunk Traits -- Blinding light (10,000 watt bulb)

Type: Chimerical or Wyrd

Art (Pyretics): Second Intermediate is Burn & Boil

"This cantrip allows you to engulf a chosen target in searing fire, generally consuming the target within minutes or even seconds. This flame becomes a normal flame once it is released, igniting and burning the target of the cantrip just as normal flame would. Fire causes two Aggrevated damaged to living targets in the first round, then normal fire damage thereafter. Non-flamable targets will go out after the initial strike.

Type: Chimerical or Wyrd"

Art (Soothsay) : Augury is an intermediate Art. In lieu of asking questions about the future, the player is also immune to Surprise for rest of the night.

Art (Soothsay): Dance with Destiny : Item of value must come of your sheet (IE: One perm Trait, Background or Ability Trait).
