Everything

Responsibilities: The Gatekeeper maintains the caern’s moon bridges, opening and closing them for certain rituals or at the request of Garou who wish to travel through the Umbra to another sept. The Gatekeeper also keeps and defends the caern’s Pathstone. Not all Gatekeepers are Theurges, but all must know the Rite of the Opened Bridge and the Rite of the Opened Caern, at least. The Gatekeeper is usually tied to the caern, especially when the moon bridge is in demand, making this an unattractive position for most young and ambitious Garou.

Like the Caller of the Wyld, the Gatekeeper’s responsibilities are primarily spiritual. As a result, Gatekeepers are rarely Kin.

Benefit: The position of Gatekeeper conveys three bonus dice to Social dice pools when dealing with the sept’s totem spirit. Although the Gatekeeper doesn’t enjoy a bonus when dealing with the Garou of his sept, many Garou seek his favor, since he can either expedite or delay their requests to use the moon bridges.
