Description

The Choleopa are a gentle, slow race that likes its privacy and guards it well. They spend most of their time in the trees and high places, disliking the ground. They are soft-spoken people slow to anger. Once they have been roused they become dire foes. The Choleopa roam the jungles of South and Central America.

Opinions

Garou: They are brutal and quick. They kill the Wyrm for us on the ground so that we do not have to go there. We are grateful for this.

"I have never seen one, but once heard a Bastet tell a tale of the slow ones"

Bastet: We know the Balam well. They often help us when we are in danger. We do what we can to help them when we can.

"The slow ones are weak, but have much spirit and fury when need be."

Mokolé: Crocodile is of the water. He bothers us little and we do the same.

"The slow ones are wise and respect wisdom. We have no ill feeling for them."

Others: I have heard stories of coyotes, rats, and spiders. I have yet to met any though "I have seen the sloths. We are quick; they are slow. Otherwise we care not about them"
