== The Factions ==
=== Sept of the Western Eye ===
In the wake of our working on the rebase, the two Septs - the Painted City and Ambergalde - are being rolled into a single Sept, to avoid fragmentation of Garou Nation and an unreasonable amount of faction bloat. Instead, the only Garou Nation faction will be the Sept of the Western Eye, a sept kept by the Children of Gaia with the Ghost Council at their side. This is hoped to both encourage internal conflict and politicking, as well as helping with maintaining the thematic connections with Gaia.

Mechanically, there will be five roles within the Sept. Keepers will be the lower role, available to Kinfolk as well unlike the others. Guardians will be the bulk of the roles, with alternative titles available for differing positions as preferred. Warders and Truthcatchers will be available as higher ranks, filling the role of martial leaders in conflict and of judges and representatives outside of conflict respectively. And finally, a role will be open for Elders to be the true leaders of the Sept.

=== Beast Courts ===
Watch this space. Developments will come when Kuei-Jin arrive, but for now they are not a significant consideration.

=== Forsworn ===
Ronin are being renamed ‘Forsworn’ as a default term, but ‘Ronin’ remains a valid in-character term amongst many others.

== The Tribes ==
=== Gale Stalkers ===
Despite the name, we are otherwise largely using the 20th Anniversary Edition lore for this tribe; essentially renamed Wendigo.

=== Ghost Council ===
Despite the name, we are otherwise largely using the 20th Anniversary Edition lore for this tribe; essentially renamed Uktena.

=== Hart Wardens ===
Despite the name, we are otherwise largely using the 20th Anniversary Edition lore for this tribe; essentially renamed Fianna.

=== Stargazers ===
The Stargazers are currently of Garou Nation, though have been known to have ties to the Beast Courts. It is possible that if the Beast Courts were to somehow become present in San Francisco, the tribe’s loyalties could be found with one foot in each.

== Other Things ==
=== Breeds ===
The breed formerly known as ‘Metis’ is being renamed to ‘Crinos’ to avoid the invocation of a real-life ethnic group, and to use the same naming scheme as Homids being Homids and Lupus being Lupus. They will also be restricted from leadership roles in the Sept.

=== Stolen Moons ===
While Stolen Moons are implemented partially on Dark Pack, our upstream, they will not be enabled until they are reworked to function as a tribe rather than an auspice. There is no time estimate for this, nor a promise it happens any time soon. Consider it a request for help!

=== Whitelists ===
This has been policy since the rebase itself, but with likely an increased demand for whitelist after this, it must be noted that whitelists granted without application - such as those in the early days of the trusted player system, or those transferred from elsewhere - will need to be reapplied for via the standard method. Those who have not transferred other whitelists since before rebase will need to request them from staff via an accelerated process as well.
