Though ancient, Cockroach has come into its own in the modern age. In every city, around every corner and seam, Cockroach waits for the dark. Persistent and incredibly hard to kill, this totem’s chosen folk share Spider’s uncanny patience; where she is delicate, though, Cockroach is tough… and its people know things… things they’re really not supposed to know.

Manifestations: Large roaches, roach swarms, titanic roaches, and people with the nightmarish ability to grow antennae or dissolve into vast carpets of… ugh…

Associations: Toughness, persistence, secrets, filth, infestation, survival.

Brood: Roach spirits, gremlin-imps, electrical impulse spirits that glide through machinery, street people, and especially strange hoarders.

Abilities: Streetwise, Survival, or the Stamina Attribute

Bans: Cockroach doesn’t like people who kill its kind or who keep their living spaces too clean. This totem’s favored people leave offerings to Cockroach’s insect children and regard them as good luck.
