The Wolf and Coyote Cults

Wolf Cultists

THE GREAT WHITE WOLF, N/N Demigod of Wolves, is Patron of the Wolf Cults and dwells at the Sacred Heart of The Moonlit Kingdom, Dreamworld of Wolves and Coyotes.  In His Aspect as THE GREAT WHITE COYOTE, He is also Patron of the Coyote Cults of the Grasslands and Desert.  In Northern Kyr (which is a hotbed of Wolf Cultism) they worship THE GREAT WHITE WOLF ESCUS, Who is an Aspect of THE GREAT WHITE WOLF with ESCUS providing the Clerical Magic in exchange for their Faith.  Similar arrangements exist in the Grasslands, where some Mist Warriors worship THE GREAT WHITE COYOTE ESCUS, and in the Underworld, where some Beastmasters worship THE GREAT BLACK WOLF ALTIS.  Some Coyote Cults, especially in the Underworld, are Sponsored instead by JAKK, the Trickster and E/N Demigod of Wickedness, with ALTIS providing the Clerical Magic.  JAKK adopts a number of different Aspects, for example THE RED COYOTE.  MIRIMI is also widely worshipped by Wolf and Coyote Cultists, but as The Moon rather than in a Wolf or Coyote Aspect.

The Wolf and Coyote Cults are organised in Packs, which are effectively tribal extended family groups.  They live out in the wilderness and are mostly nomadic.  They have Thievish Scouting abilities and are great hunters, including through the Otherworlds.  Wolves and Coyotes are their companions.  Underworld Wolf Cults breed Wargs, which they use as mounts and sell to the Orcish Armies of the Underworld.

Lycanthropy is endemic in the Wolf and Coyote Cults, with most followers actively seeking to become Werewolves or Werecoyotes.  In some Werewolf Packs it can be hard to distinguish which were originally People and which Wolves.  They hunt and feast at the Full Moon and sleep and dream at No Moon.

JAPAL supports the Cults’ Beastmaster Druids through Her Wolf and Coyote Spirits.  Wolf and Coyote Beastmasters have a specific Druidic Spell List, with Foxglove as the unique medium for their Lupine Cycle of Spells.  All Wolf and Coyote Cults are Mystical and their Shamen can lead their Packs into the Moonlit Kingdom, using their Enter Power or via the Sacred Circles and Totems of their Cults.  They dwell in Dreams and are unafraid of Madness.

Cultist Binders Summon LUPUS, Demon of Wolves and Coyotes, N/N Demon Lord and Servant of THE GREAT WHITE WOLF, Who appears as a huge Wolf or Coyote, provides Wolf or Coyote Familiars and grants Powers of Lycanthropy, Shapechange to Wolf/Coyote, Scenting and Enter the Moonlit Kingdom to Cultists.

Wolf Cults are enemies of the Boar Cults.  Coyote Cults are enemies of the Cougar Cults.

Wolf Cultists have affinities with Cold and Water, but an aversion to Fire (though they do not count as Fire Vulnerable).  Their Elementalists favour Cold and Water Spells.

Wolf and Coyote Cults are separate from (but generally friendly with) the much less common Fox and Dog Cults, which are Sponsored by RUFF, N/L Demigod of Dogs, but share Foxglove as their Druidic medium.
