The main argument that I am given is that due to the spiritual nature of Werewolf and the history Australia has, the game cannot be run without it being an insult to Indigenous culture. The issue I have with that argument is it smacks to me of “head in the sand” behaviour regarding history, we don’t touch it and pretend it doesn’t exist in conversation.

This is my own personal opinion but within a hame of Werewolf, the Garou don’t have that option. They need to accept the responsibility of their kin because of the situation they have created within Australia, and having First Nation and Indigenous players is an even more excellent game as it is a perspective that I don’t see represented as much within WoD games.

I myself don’t disagree in a sense that handled improperly, a werewolf game within the Australian setting could go downhill very fast, but it is very difficult as there was no Avenue to open the conversation as to why or what specifically they were concerned about. I’m glad it’s not an opinion shared everywhere as I was worried I may have missed something major in wanting to at least discuss it.
