Scientist
Archetype
To a Scientist, existence is a puzzle which she can help to reassemble. A Scientist logically and methodi-cally examines her every situation and maneuver, looking for logical outcomes and patterns. This is not to say that the Scientist is always looking for a scientific or rational explanation, but rather she examines her surroundings rigorously and with a critical eye. The system a Scientist attempts to impose on the world may be completely ludicrous, but it is a system, and she sticks by it.

The Scientist Archetype isn’t necessarily obsessed with literal science — rather, this represents the desire to understand. A Scientist looks for patterns at play around her, and wants to see how things follow from a logical sequence of events. She’s interested in the systems that govern the world. Among the Garou, the Scientist may be found anywhere from techno-savvy Glass Walker information junkies to Uktena Theurges fascinated with unraveling the enigmas of the spirit world.
