Tribebook: Children of Gaia is the revised version of the old Children of Gaia Tribebook. Unlike the rest of the Revised tribebooks, fans were divided in their reception.
Summary[]
- For a Mother's Love
- Since the birth of the tribes themselves, the Children of Gaia have suffered under the heaviest burden ever laid on any werewolf - the struggle to end not just the War of the Apocalypse, but war itself. But even with the blessings of Gaia, this is no easy task - the Children must fight not only to sway others to their cause, but they must struggle against the violence that beats within their own hearts. For the sake of the world, they must succeed. For their own sakes, they must be ready to die trying.
- Born to War; Chosen for Healing
- Tribebook: Children of Gaia takes a long look at the peacemakes of the Garou Nation, from the mediators of the Patient Deed to the militant warriors of the Imminent Strike. From the end of the Impergium to the End Times, from the freely shared gifts of healing to the tribe's dark secrets, it's all here. The longest, hardest struggle of all awaits - can your character shoulder the burden of bringing peace to a world that doesn't want it?
