Companion guide that fills the gaps.
The Werewolf Storyteller's Companion is all the extra items that just wouldn't fit in the main Werewolf: the Apocalypse rulebook. This slim volume contains 60 pages of extra information that you can use to enhance your game and provide new opportunities for your players to enjoy.

It is divided into four chapters: 'The Beast Blooded', detailing the recently seperated tribe of werewolves (the Stargazers), a brief summary on other shapshifters and some optional rules for tribal weaknesses; 'Caerns and Septs', briefly overviewing these two fundamental parts of werewolf life; 'Rivals and Enemies', providing new antagonists to torment your players with; 'Odds and Ends', which has rules for underwater combat, new weapons, a timeline of history and expanded Renown rules, as well as a 4-page spread of character sheets.

Also included is a fold-out 5 page Storyteller's Screen, which provides many of the charts and rules you need all in one place, as well as providing a shield for making secret rolls or just hiding your notes from potentially nosey players.

The information in these chapters is very helpful, and this should be considered extra material that would have been in the main rules if not for lack of space. If you are new to Werewolf, this book is a great addition to the main rules. However, if you have the full Storyteller's Handbook, this may simply be repetition of things you already knew. While some of the rules provided here are newer than those in the Handbook, most of the 'flavor' is the same.

For the price, the Storyteller's Companion is a great deal, and useful to anyone playing Werewolf: the Apocalypse, even if you have the older Handbook. These extra pages that belong in the main book, so pick up a copy and complete your Werewolf experience!
