I am currently making a comprehensive list of rites, but it's hard to do without the Players Guide. None the less one is forthcoming. These are some great detailed ones. Check out the rules for learning Rites. Cool huh. It was right there in the book, I had forgotten the rules for them.
Rites: System, Variants and Auspice Roles Noted By: EKC
Type: Roll: Difficulty:
Accord Cha + Rituals 7
Caern varies (max. Gnosis) 7
Death Cha + Rituals 8 –Rank
Mystic Wits + Rituals 7
Punishment Cha + Rituals 7
Renown Cha + Rituals 6
Seasonal Sta + Rituals 8 –Caern Lvl
Minor none none
A rite takes a minimum of ten minutes per level to cast, while minor rites take from two to five. Rites always require some form of trinket or special material.
For every five Garou beyond the base number required (usually three) who are present and helping perform the rite to the best of their ability (in addition to the rite master), the difficulty level of the rite decreases by one (minimum to 3).
In particular, Theurges and Philodox are groomed for such positions from the time they enter the sept. In general, Theurges tend to learn mystic rites, seasonal rites and caern rites. Philodox traditionally learn rites of Accord and rites of Punishment.
Galliards are likely to lead rites of Death and rites of Renown. Ragabash and Ahroun may also learn rites that may fit a situation. An Ahroun may lead his war party in a Rite of Wounding after a cub’s first battle.
Rites of Accord: Any Garou attempting to perform a rite of Accord must possess a talen, a fetish or some piece of Gaia never touched by minions of the Wyrm or by human hands. Char + Rituals roll Diff 7 unless stated otherwise.
Caern Rites: These rites may only be performed within a Caern. Dice pools varies, but the max number of dice may never exceed the ritemaster’s Gnosis. Diff is 7 unless stated otherwise.
Rites of Death: Packs and sept take release from the debilitating poison of grief and fear. Ritemaster must make a Char + Rituals roll Diff is 8 minus the Rank of the Honored Garou.
Mystic Rites: These rites are direct contact to the Spirits and the Umbra. Unlike most other rites, a Garou normally performs these rites alone. Ritemaster must make a Wits + Rituals roll Diff 7 unless otherwise stated.
Punishment Rites: These are performed only for major transgressions. By joining in the punishment, each Garou strengthens her commitment to the pack over the individual. Char + Rituals Diff 7 unless otherwise stated.
Rites of Renown: These celebrate both specific accomplishments of an individual Garou and his achievement of a new station in pack or sept. Char + Rituals. The rites of Accomplishment and Passage are most common.
Seasonal: These must be performed at the exact time of the year and at least five Garou must be present. Ritemaster makes a Stamina + Rituals roll Diff 8. If performed at a Caern, the Diff is 8 minus and Caern level.
Minor: The minor rites are incorporated into everyday living. Almost all Garou know a few of these and practice them regularly. Players may purchase minor rites at half cost. They may by learned at half time and only take a few minutes to perform. Werewolves who perform a minor rite regularly find it easier to achieve certain goals.
