Garou can change forms at any time they wish, not just during full moons. The moon plays a much bigger part in the life of a Garou than that. The moon that a Garou was born under influences their whole outlook on life. The moon is more than just a Garou Zodiac, it is a source of power. The more full your birth moon, the more rage you have. |

These
are the lightest in spirit of all the Garou. They have a much better
sense of humor, and use it often to teach others. Many times this humor
has a dark side, and the most successful of them know just how far is
too far.
These
are the shamans and the mystics of the Garou. They deal with the arcane
and the spirits. They perform many of the rituals and are consulted by
leaders for their knowledge.
Perhaps
the wisest of the auspices to be born under, the Philodox are seen as
the judges, lore keepers, and moderators. They make sure that the Garou
laws, known as the Litany, is kept. When the litany is violated, they
quickly and may times brutally enforce justice. Unlike human justice,
Garou justice is swift and severe.
Galliards
are much like the warrior bards of the British Isles. They are the story
tellers, teachers, singers and moon dancers. They play hard and fight
hard.
Like
the brightest moon, Ahrouns are the shining example of what the Garou can
be... glorious warriors defending Gaia. But they have a tendency to do
what most really bright shiny things do, burn out in that blaze of glory.
Ahrouns are the toughest fighters, cunning hunters, fierce combatants, but
lack in many of the social skills that make one want to be around them
very long. Usually, the Philodox of the Garou have to prevent the Ahrouns
from killing the Ragabash.
