User blog:SensibleCenobite/Some skills I picked up from clan Gangrel and the Bone Gnawers.

Here are some real world tactics clan Gangrel and the Bone Gnawer community have taught me along the way. I was homeless for six months to prove to them I could be trusted with this information. I wanted to give you neonates a heads up when hanging out with the wolves. I’m not divulging anything they specifically asked me not to talk about. My pain is your gain. These are in no particular order, just off the top of my head.

1). Don’t take more than you need. You would be surprised how quickly one or two back packs can get filled. You don’t need clean pants and/or shirts. Bring lots of clean socks and clean underwear.

2). Black beans straight from the can are really good and keeps you full all day.

3). Some restaurants like the pizza joint Little Tweeter's throw away their product separately from their cleaning supplies and don’t purposely put cleaners on top to keep us wolves out. Kind of fresh, right out of the box!

4). Be kind and don’t break the law. Drop your ego.

5). Stay mobile. Don’t blow up the same street corner day after day. Bus tickets are cheap.

6). Find something clever to do like read a book, play a board game well, or play music.

7). Graveyards are a quiet place to sleep at night.

8). Get to know your local Magi, Werewolves, and Changelings. They have great hideouts on the outskirts of town.

9). Don’t be afraid to get out of town and hit a festival. They are great places to meet contacts.

10). Get to know whoever is in charge and help make them happy and/or rich.

11). If you got company trucks at the office, the boss will probably let you sleep in them.

12). Food banks and second hand stores are your best friends. Some cities have food boxes on the street.

13). Stay debt free and live simply. One acre of land and a class B RV are pretty cheap.

Lastly, I wanted to say that clan Gangrel and the Bone Gnawer community are some of the nicest people I’ve met. They are usually really content and generous, and if you treat them like they exist, they are pretty cool back. It always helps if you bring some food, tobacco, or clothes to share.

Hope this helps any budding Gangrel, Bone Gnawer, or neonate,
