ZHONG LUNG: UNBALANCED?

Players may be inclined to wonder: Doesn’t the Zhong Lung’s position among the Beast Courts give them a leg up on other Mokolé, me­ chanically? They effectively have two Auspices, thanks to their universal access to Galliard Gifts.

The answer is — well, yes. It does. The Zhong Lung have been treated as the enlightened ‘heart’ of the Beast Courts since time immemorial, and have better relations with the spirit courts of Asia than just about any other shen. While the rest of the Mokolé have hidden away in their wallows in isolation, the Zhong Lung have moved openly, enjoyed widespread support, and accumulated great power. Of course, as the Zhong Lung themselves would be the first to point out, the quantity of power laid at one’s feet matters far less than how one uses it.
