Editing Leviathan: The Tempest (section)

=Schools=

Factions Leviathans join to deal with their condition in the company of the like-minded.

'''School of the Abyss'''

Leviathans of this school take one look at what their relationships with humans look like, and decide not to bother. They retreat from the world to explore the depths of the ocean, and are the foremost experts on the Rift.

'''School of Clay'''

The school of [[Humanity, Fuck Yeah!]]. Leviathans of Clay think that since humans are much better at this whole 'civilization' thing, they should copy how humans do things.

'''School of Fog'''

The School of Fog looks inward for answers, studying the nature and history of the Tribes. Because of how familiar they are with the Tribes, they're very good at forming inter-Tribe alliances.

'''School of the Moon'''

A school that constantly seeks change and evolution, in hopes of eventually rediscovering the primordial glory of the Tribes.

'''School of the Reef'''

Leviathans who seek challenge and self-improvement, believing that the only thing a Leviathan can truly rely on is their own power.

'''School of Sand'''

Techno-Cthulhu who like to solve all their problems with modern technology.

'''School of the Sun'''

The School of Sun embraces the divine nature of Leviathans, and work on enlarging and improving their cults.

==Antagonists==

Because anyone as dangerous a Leviathan, and as prone to destroying human lives without intending to, is going to make loads of enemies. 

'''The Marduk Society'''

The modern students of Marduk, who slew Tiamat. Have a lot of nifty toys like a space station and orbital death ray. They used to be controlled by a secret cabal of Marduk's original disciples who went evil and started eating Leviathan flesh to make themselves immortal, but the modern members [[Awesome|discovered they were being used and purged the society of the secret cabal]]. This has left them one of the most idealistic and actually good factions in the World of Darkness, but they've also lost half their number and now they have to deal with the fact that ''oh shit, running a worldwide conspiracy is really hard''. They're terrifying when they manages to get their asses in gear, but that's a very rare event.

'''Ahabs'''

Named after the obsessed ship captain in ''Moby Dick''. Ahabs are people who were affected by the power of Leviathans, but unlike normal people who become obsessively devoted cultists, they become obsessed with hunting down the Leviathan in question at any cost, and as long as they're doing that, they have superpowers called Damnations. Since these Damnations are actually manifestations of the Leviathan's power and self-hatred, they lose the powers when the unwitting donor dies. Which can be a bit of a problem if they were using Damnations to survive in some sort of hostile environment.
