OWBN Canon

This page is dedicated to cataloging the major changes to the World of Darkness canon/metaplot that OWBN has done over the years. This is NOT a collection of In Character knowledge your Character may automatically posses. Instead this is a collection of our own OWBN Canon that differs from White Wolf, so players can be aware of the changes our organization has made to the canon/metaplot. If you have a doubt if your character can know about of these evens on an In Character levels, please ask a Storyteller first. You may not default to knowing what provided in this page with your characters without express permission from a Storyteller.
