Warder is a word synonymous with trust and duty within the Garou Nation. A werewolf who claims such a position is entrusted with the sacred obligation to ensure the protection and maintenance of a caern.

As the chief guardian of a caern, a Warder is otherwise separate from the authority of the Council of Auspices. In matters regarding the security and safety of the caern and its bawn, the Warder has complete command, even over the Council of Auspices, so long as she holds office. However, should the Warder fail in her duties or be unable to perform her required tasks, she may be voted out of office by the Council of Auspices. Any member of the sept who demonstrates her worthiness to the Master of the Challenge may challenge the Warder whenever the caern is not in immediate danger. If the Warder falls in battle, the Sept Leader can appoint a temporary replacement to hold the post until the Council of Auspices confirms a new Warder.

THE WARDER’S AUTHORITY AND DUTIES INCLUDE:

  • Organizing the security and protection of the caern and its bawn.
  • Empowering Guardians to protect the caern.
  • Vetoing any decision that threatens the security of the caern or its bawn.
  • Enlisting any Garou within the protectorate in active defense of the caern or bawn, no matter their position or Rank.
  • Protecting the shard seed at any personal cost, even death.
  • Using any force necessary to defend the caern
  • Exiling undesirables from the caern.
  • Holding immunity from prosecution for actions taken in defense of the caern.
  • Determining who is allowed to commune in the caern to regain Gnosis.
