Betweeners

Not all Rokea, however, remain in the water. Although it is considered an abomination and a blasphemy to do so by most Dimwaters, many Rokea, especially Brightwaters and Darkwaters, often come unto Unsea and are so fascinated with it that they decide to stay. Some Betweeners have other reasons - maybe they are being hunted by other weresharks, for instance - but most come out of curiosity and stay out of satisfaction. Betweeners earn their name because they cannot truly stay on land nor do they desire to live in the water. A wereshark who does not return to Sea regularily will lose his shapeshifting ability forever. To avoid such a fate, Betweeners travel along shorelines, spending some times as humans but always returning to the ocean for sustenance from Sea.
Dimwaters across the oceans often call for Betweener hunts, gathering slews to send to the surface to kill the blasphemers.
Betweeners were the first weresharks to discover the Glabrus shape, although few use it, given its hideous appearance. The Gladius shape of betweeners often lacks a tail, as it is useless on land (however, should they chose to, they can grow it back at will).
Betweeners, according to the Beweener Bleeds-Night, a Darkwater that appears in the Rokea sourcebook, furthermore explains that Betweeners have made their own changes to the Rokean Law, and call their code of survival the Betweener Law. Its tenets are as follows:

• Survive: This tenet does not change. The Rokean purpose is to survive and endure, and doesn't change no matter where they live.

• Humans Are Not Prey: The devouring of humans simply raises too many questions for the Betweeners to be acceptable behaviour among them.

• Stay Near Sea: As the sea gives sustenance of the soul to the Rokea, and they lose their ability to shapeshift if they are away from it for too long, the purpose behind this law is fairly obvious.

• F.E.A.R.: An acronym with the (rather crude) meaning "Fuck Everything And Run", which Betweeners often take literally. They mate with humans whenever they feel the urge to, but usually can't stay around to take care of their offspring, as the Betweener Hunts issued from the ocean-dwelling Rokea often force them to flee.

Rokean Law

The Rokea have a code of law similar to the Garou, except simpler and more straightforward:

• Survive: The race must survive, no matter what. The Rokea believe that there is only foolishness, not honour, in fighting a battle they can't win. No Rokea will accuse another of cowardice if they swim away from a fight that is hopeless. The only exception is sacrifice in the name of a Grotto, which is expected to be defended to the last breath.

• Hunt: Rokea have duties as both shapechangers and sharks. They were designed to be predators of the highest order, and their actions affect the sea around them. This tenet reminds Rokea that they are warriors and predators above everything else.

• Spawn: Rokea breed slowly but deliberately. Each wereshark is expected to breed at least once during their lives. This part of the law code also obliges weresharks to teach and mentor young weresharks in the ways of the Rokea.

• Swim: The weresharks consider it a duty to continue to swim, explore, and move. They need to watch for dangers threatening Sea. and the best way to do this is to move around and keep one's eyes out.
