Description
The Horned god of the Celts, Lord of Animals, Hunting and Fertility. Fond of wild revels, he embodies the abundance of nature and appears as a naked man with stag's antlers and a torc, and occasionally as a ram-headed serpent. An ancient diety, perhaps even predating the Celts, he fell in power as Christianity identified him with Satan. A totem of the Fianna, he still holds their respect and is thought to be an aspect of Stag, or vice versa.
Traits
His chosen learn the nature of beasts and the wilds (+3 to Animal Ken and Survival dice pools). The chosen become fertile indeed, the beast breeding truer (3 in 10 chance of Garou offspring). Being chosen by him is a great honour (gain 2 Honour).
Bans
Followers of Cernunnos are forbidden the use of 'non-natural' birth control, and may only eat the flesh of beasts they have captured and slain themselves.
