A pack runs on loyalty and old law, and it notices everything you do. Join one that doesn’t trust you yet, hide the change from the people you love, or challenge the alpha who runs the valley. LoreWeaver keeps each oath and each scar in the story’s memory from one full moon to the next.

“Put the lantern out. If the alpha sees a light on the ridge tonight, he’ll think you came to hunt us, and he won’t wait to ask.”
The short answer
LoreWeaver suits werewolf stories, which run on loyalty and history. The storyteller plays every wolf in the pack as its own character, lore cards hold your pack’s laws and territory, and memories keep each challenge and promise from one session to the next. Romance is welcome too, and adult players can take it further within LoreWeaver’s published limits. It costs nothing to start, with 20 replies in any community world before you sign up and 25 premium replies a day on the free plan.

Werewolf on LoreWeaver
Lore cards
Write the pack’s laws, its territory, and how the change takes hold on lore cards. Each card joins the scene when its name or a tag comes up, and a pinned card stays in view every turn, so the law in front of the storyteller in the tenth session is the one you wrote in the first.
The Loom
Companion Bond gives a packmate a loyalty meter that rises when you defend them, share with them, or confide in them. Once it runs high enough, they prove it at a moment that counts.
The Loom
Rising Tension climbs on its own every couple of turns. Rename it for the wolf inside you, and when it peaks the storyteller throws a sudden complication into the scene before the meter settles back down.
Recap
A running recap, read before every reply, holds the time and place, who matters and where they stand, and every promise still open. Edit it in your own words, or lock it so it stays exactly as written.
The Loom
Clock & Weather moves the hour forward with every turn, keeps a day count, and tells the storyteller when night falls. After dark, something nearby now and then makes itself heard before it is seen.
Your own world
Describe it in a line, such as a mountain town where the pack and the sheriff keep an old truce, and the world builder writes the premise, the wolves, their lore cards, and the opening scene.

FAQ
Yes. Start a world where you were just turned, and the storyteller plays the pack deciding what to do with you. Companion Bond can track how far a packmate trusts you, and a lore card for each wolf keeps their rank and manner steady.
Yes. Romance is welcome, from rivals who circle each other to fated mates. Accounts are for adults, who can take a story further within LoreWeaver’s published limits, and a short list of hard limits never moves, starting with nothing sexual involving minors.
Yes. Memories cover the whole story, so the wolf who stood with you at your first challenge still remembers it many sessions later, and recall brings those memories back whenever that wolf is in the scene.
Yes. Play the hunter, the bitten, or the alpha. Boss Fight starts when you name the beast and gives it a health bar to wear down, and Skill Checks roll a d20 when you sneak, climb, or dodge.
Yes. Search the Hub for community werewolf worlds and play any of them free for 20 replies with no account, or pitch your own pack in a sentence and let the world builder set it up.
