Fellowships

Fellowships are groups of Kinfolk who work together for a common purpose. Some are exclusive to certain tribes, while others may encourage membership from all tribes. Some are simply small groups of friends in a local area, while others are highly organized and mobile. Some have membership requirements based on both tribe and skill, yet others have open-door policies. The common goal though is to keep the lines of communication among werewolves and Kin strong worldwide.
