I'm running a Werewolf game and, after the pack managed to root out a Bale Hound and make the only other Rahu in the local area stand down, it seems like they want to take the time to handle mortal antagonists in their backstories. What I'd like to know is what NWoD books could provide good resources for kinfolk, criminal (mob or hackers especially), law and/or political characters.

Thanks for the suggestions.

One great resource for the criminal and law aspects of your question is Tales From the 13th Precinct, a sourcebook from the core World of Darkness line that approaches the setting from a law-enforcement perspective. It not only prepares you to make characters on both sides of the law that can encounter the supernatural world, but it adds a few new merits and system tweaks to make them able to be a challenge for the Pack.

How did this book escape my notice? Thanks for the recommendation. – Bigeshu Jun 14 '12 at 21:30
@Bigeshu It had a really small print run; a lot of the nWoD books in the core line did. – Jadasc Jun 14 '12 at 23:17
Well that explains it. I wonder if my flgs has a copy in the for sale bin. IF not, to amazon or troll and toad I go. I read about the book and it looks exactly like what I'm looking for. – Bigeshu Jun 15 '12 at 12:25
@Bigeshu Good luck. If you don't find it there, you can acquire it through DriveThruRPG; I've turned the reference above into a link to the store. – Jadasc Jun 15 '12 at 13:20
