Werewolves and Fera have a genetic condition. In order to reproduce, they require kinfolk. Kinfolk also act as informants and communicators for those shifters too rage-filled to interact normally with humans. It's a thankless job, but someone's got to do it.
Advantages to playing Kinfolk:
- Potential access to Rank 1 Shifter powers
- Parent shifter type Knowledge equivalent to Type/Subtype 2
- Shifters usually want to protect their Kin
- Immunity to Delirium
- Native Realm: Realm
Disadvantages to playing Kinfolk:
- You get limited (if any) respect and are expected to do tasks for your shifters.
