The more I've grown, the more I've noticed that I like there to be non-typical factions in my settings. With WtA, I feel it could do more to invokveactual werewolf myths and tropes at times.
Hence, this thread.
These are just my ideas, but you are free to add your own or use these.
Curers- Sometimes, a garou changes from a very distant ancestry or even in a place where no garou exist. While some learn to embrace their nature, others seek to cure their condition any way they can. Some try to drink wolfsbane tea, others seek help from faiths. Those who are lupus and cannot accept their growing mind often try to still live as wolves, rejecting any tries from the Nation or the Wyrm to convert them.
The guardians- Sometimes, garou can group together and hang out without truly knowing what they are.These garouare like a small gang, protecting an area they somehow know is sacred.
The Rejecters- Some garou just feel the Nation is not for them. Whether the militaristic way of life or just a feeling they do not belong, these garou become ronin voluntarily. Often, they live on the edges of human society taking odd jobs to survive.
The Currs- Currs want to destroy the Nation for the sake of humanity. They heard the tale of Impegrium and they decided that the Nation cannot exist. These garou are often very short lived, as their tries to undermine the sept will end up in Punishments rites like the Hunt. Most are part of a tribe, but only because that allows them to hurt it from the inside. The most clever of the Currs will seem to be jusr normal cliaths, never reaching fostern but being relatively useful. Yet they slowly are dismantling the sept from the inside.
The Ubermensch- Those garou who reject the Nation and the Wyrm not due to any moral claim. But rather because they feel any ties might make them -weaker.- These garou find hidden places where they can rule in peace, controlling the human population or area like a hungry beast.
The Escapists- Sometimes, you just never feel right in the body you were born in. You wanted to be something, ANYTHING else. These garou(mostly homids, but some lupus are among their numbers) do not as much reject the nation but their birth breed and seek to live as either as wolves/humans or never leave the sept as they get to live as true werewolves.
