So I'm inspired by a Lancer lore Video below about the many colorful (fictional) political movements in the Karrakin Trade Baronies (basically the Technofeudal faction in the LANCER TTRPG setting)

Which inspired me To jot down some rough garou equivalents in the Context of the upcoming WtE setting, which are as follows:

Crown Tribe: So this political movement basically wants one tribe to directly rule all the tribes of the garou nation or outright disbanding all the tribes to merge them all into one supertribe or kingdom. Of course, this is an extremely fringe movement among all the tribes for a verity of reasons. Mainly the complex logistic need to put the idea into practice is beyond the nation even at the best of times, most tribes simply isn't open to the idea in the first place, it would leave the nation venerable to a decapitation strike by Pentax or other servants of the wyrm and there simply no consensus on who should be a theoretical king.

The Sliver Fangs the tribe is stereotypically associated this movement due to the arguable legitimacy provided by the Sliver Crown. Of course the supporters of this movement have been pretty quite since it lost in the deep umbra alongside Albrecht after his sacrifice to seal the storm eater. This doesn't stop some crown tribes to back efforts to scry for location of the lost crown and Albrecht and some have clamed to have contacted directly, although most were proven to be lies or efforts by the wyrm servants to mislead them. The glass walkers of all tribes have some believers of the Crown Tribe theory, basically they believes that they're mastery over technology could solve and/or make up the many shortcomings and possibly even surpassing the Sliver Fangs, (really putting the Tech in Technofeudaluium) the Glass Walkers tribe's official stance on this is that those afrmentioned are purely fringe elements and won't condone they ideas (especially if it involve the pats the involves them being better candadate than the sliver fangs), though this still spawn some rumors about they loyalties to the greater westcon… Talking about rumors one shouldn't touch on the many colorful theories surrounding the shadow lords many plots to become the crown tribe, with they're role in the founding of Eastcon being seen as the first step of they're latest plot…

Tribal separatists: They believe of those garous can be summed up simply that the nation has failed for various reason and they decide to leave it. This poetical theory is on the rise after the Apocalypse. Though the fact that most of cearns are blown up during said Apocalypse and the rites needed to create them are rendered useless raise some doubts on the practically of the concept. Well that's before the discovery of the shard seeds…

The Only tribe that really separated from the Nation is the Red Talons though they're current state after separation is held by some for what a example of what a tribe shouldn't do not to do when leaving the nation (Like having control over at least one Cearn before leaving the nation…). The Stargazers has also considered leaving the nation before they ultimately they joined up with the children of gaia though some stargazers did defect to the beast courts before the moon bridge network collapsed.

The WrymFighters: If a political movement can be summed in a simple sentence, it would be the following: "the Wrym doesn't care about politics, so neither should we". This political movement believes that that the garou should focus on what the garou was born to do which is to fight the enemy of gaia politics (especially human) be dammed. It's arguably the "default" political movement of the garou for the majority of they history. Of course many tribes through the ages have very different standardbreds on what's "non political" and "it's discacts from gaias mission" is a distressingly common excuse for elders to crack down on progressive movements in the nation.

Most of the tribes in the Western Concordat subscribe to some variant of the WrymFighters with the main holdouts being Sliver Fangs, Get of Fenris and Skysingers though they has taken some steps to Liberalization under the direction of the now absent king Albrecht while his son and defacto regent Jason are expected to continue he's father's policies there's still some concerned that he may lack his fathers charisma and will to sway the more consultive elders and thus be pressured to appease more traditional wing of his tribe. Meanwhile the Get well known for they efforts to separate themselves from human politics in response to the actions of a creatin sept. Though there are argument that some of they actions to that separation such as septs forcibly isolating all of they members garou and kinfolk from the human influence can be seen as gross over-correction, Along some other darker rumors surrounding the tribe. Still one should hope all the Get will stay vigilant, least they tribe goes down a path both they and the nation would regret.

Progressives: This is a blanket term for the many progressive movements throughout the Nation's history that faced varying level of favor and resistance depending on the time frame, tribe and current hot button issue throughout the nation. In the post it's tech usage and by extension the garou's response and relationship with humanity as whole, currently kinfolk and warborn rights.

The Eastern Concordat as a whole are all made up of the more progressive tribes in the nation are mainly focused on granting more rights to both kinfolk and Warborn while the Western concordat tribes by contrast are much more conservative with they views with two major exception. The Get of Fenrir which are competitively more egalitarian view with they knfolks though some of they detractors would say it's closer to social darwinism due to high standards some septs hold they kinfolk to. Though if a kinfolk actually met said standards are treated a true Get no matter how thin they fera blood are while the Glass walker are one of the progressive tribes on the matter of tech usage while on the matter of kinfoik rights well... "One shuffle forward, one skip back" is a common saying among the glass walker kinflok for a reason... It's suspected that they spotty history with the kinfolk is partly the reason the glass walker ultimately withdraw they support for the Eastern concordat and joined Western Concordat and it has cause some level of discontent with some non corporate septs and younger garous whose views are closer to east cons, while it's mostly just grumbles from some garous dissatisfied with they leadership it could just as easily be a start of a schism in the tribe.

The VeilBreakers : As it said on the tin this political movent believes that the Veil one of the most important tenant of the lantry is actively impeding the garous mission and should done away with. Either so the nation can openly mobilize all they warriors to fight the forces of the wyrm in open battle or more recently allow them to show humainty the true extent of Pentex's crimes and inspire them to take action against them.

There are VeilBreakers in both concordats. Most of them were quickly dissuaded by they Elders before they can do something truly drastic. Though some of the same elders do have plans for if/when the Veil finally falls...

AN: This is written for Werewolf the Essentials Fan edition in mind but feel free to modify the lore and names for your own games and even forsaken if you feel like it.

Presenting the RDU Sióg, a solid core mech with swappable appendages and attachments based on bio-synthetic muscular technology. The RDU (raid deployment unit) Sióg uses a central neural cockpit, basically a glorified tube, that connects directly to the pilots nervous system and brain, and compresses around the pilot to prevent cramping and strain, making the signature "vacuum sealed womb" cockpit the production company is famous for.

A common augmentation is the use of an electromagnetic held ballistic shield, often used on medical and evac units. These units are nicknamed "Evac Fairies."

Red star with a planet passing up - wip

Close up Wip of the illustration that’ll start the mini comic of the Lancer Crew doing their normal habits when they’re not doing a mission

This illustration will make up the color palette for the crew pieces. If you’re interested in the story! The early draft is up on my patreon! Additional with some extra lore and wips of other mechs, and aliens they’ll be meeting. All for just a dollar that really helps me achieve my dream of being a living artist and storyteller.

You don’t need to knowing Nothing about the Lancer rpg for the story to make sense. It’s very character driven, and they might bump into some big existential things.

But if you do! You can see the campgain I wish I could run or write all the different options for players to make their own choices. Things could Very differently (and I haven’t read the full rules. I mainly read about the mechs and who’s making them so- some lore might be right, the rest is Ya Boi)

Because no one would turn a star into a power source, build a factory + resort planet around it, and try to make Massive mechs using star power cells. No one would and if they did it’s a Fantastic idea with no draw backs
