Summary: Another breed of shifters....
Comment: Just what we needed. Another sourcebook on another group of creatures that have the need to change at a whim. It would appear the writers at White Wolf didn't learn from their Rokea ( *knock-knock* Land shark) nonsense and slapped together a group of sneaky snakes that can also shift. Lump them with the changing alligators, and wolves, and lions, and tigers, and bears, oh my. The book itself is not as poorly written as some of the shifter material WW shovels out anymore, but it comes across as somewhat unnecessary. The role explained for the Nagah in the World of Darkness can certainly be filled by another breed, or camp within another breed. As with any creative storyteller you can certainly weave the Nagah into your stories, but you could fill the same stories with any of the other numerous shifter breeds already out there. The book is fine for what it is. Though it feels as though the shifter writers at White Wolf have been reaching for a reason to work with these past few releases. Nothing has been inspired, and Nagah is no exception to that sense of apathy.

Summary: Great book for last
Comment: The Nagah are cool. Everyone likes the idea of Assassins, and the snake is the coolest animal to do the job. They are probubly one of the most complex group of shifters as well. People believe that they are extinct, but they still conduct their duties.
See, the Nagah have the job of playing the judge (the every supernatural group in a White-Wolf game has). They are basically a group that hunts down offending shapeshifters and plays judge, jury and exicutioner. Of course, due to past circumstances this can only be done by a group of Nagah, and as such they travel in groups of three.
Rules wise these guys are monsters. They have Venom which essentially makes them killers without anything else, as even one bite of the venom, could kill any person who can't soak aggravated damage. They are also adept at being sneaky and have numerous gifts to hide their passing. These guys would seem perfect for powergamming but ironically, they are rather limited in fighting purpose. This book is a rather good book for a person who really wants to spice up their Werewolf game.
Rating: 5
Summary: Last Changing breed book, too bad
Comment: White Wolf overall has done a great job with the other were-creatures and this book is no exspection. If you ever wanted to play white wolf campaign with a cloak and dagger approach this is it. Too bad they don't plan on making any more material like this,the changing breed books are some of the best stuff white wolf has put out.
