Lycanthropes being the sum of their parts are social by nature. This means they gather in groups not just for special occasions but as a way of coping with their status as infected. There is huge interplay between the drives of the beast and the drives of the man. One of the best teachers of how to cope and not only live but thrive is ones own type of infected. There is a saying that blood calls to blood and that is a truism for lycanthropes on more than one account.
So a basic primer is as follows Starting with the most contagious forms through to the rarer and believed nonexistent:
Rats are called the Rodere as a species and a swarm occasionally but swarm is falling out of use.
They have a national King but locally each Rodere is led by their own Rom or Romni if the head is female
Wolves are called Lukoi as a species and Group occasionally they are referred to as a pack but as a whole they are called Lukoi. They are led by their Alpha and while usually male Ulfric occasionally they are led by an Ulfreya
Leopards are called either the Pard or Leap depending on region of the world they are from. They are led by their Nimir-Ra or Raj.
Coyotes are Known as Picaro and rarely have a constant leader as they generally lead situationally.
Hyenas known as the Cackle are militantly matriarchal and led by the Oba.
Jaguars are called the Jamboree and led by either their: Onca is a king who serves a higher king/cause or
Olmec is one who rules by their own strengths or Malkia Jamboree’s queen
Bears are known as the Sleuth and Led by their Female Ursa or Male Ursus.
Tigers are called the Streak and led by their Chang no ifs and or buts though occasionally if a hang i not preset and no little queens are in the wings a Male the Khan will lead.
Lions are known as the Pride and led by their Rex and or Regina
Foxes are known as the Skulk and led by either their male Seigneur or female Dame.
Snakes are one of the rarest and rarely congregate but when they do they are called a Nest and led by either the male Kashayapa or female Kadra
