Meoquammi's Circle

Meoquamme's Circle, lead by a Kindred of the same name, are a smaller and oft-antagonized group of Kindred. Reviled by the other Crones as heretics and dangerous blasphemers, prior to the take-over of the Carthians, their group was banned from practicing in Portland.
Their beliefs revolve around the concept that every Kindred's beast is a spirit animal, in the native american tradition, and that through meditation and mythic practices one can commune with it, and help guide it during frenzies. Unlike other Kindred, Meoquamme leads them in preferrably non-violent dealings, although they have never shied away from defending themselves.
The circle's leadership is Meoquamme and his childer Three-Bird. The circle's organization is very non-formal with alternating meeting locations and times for protection. Most of the meetings comprise of thoughts and insights discovered while meditating, as well as magical lessons and teachings to learn the many rituals to teach newcomers. It is considered highly uncouth to show up hungry, and non-violent feeding is always encouraged by the members.
Despite their seemingly kind disposition, some of Meoquamme's more impressive rituals require sacrifices and blood letting, with the penultimate ones requiring human sacrifices. Meoquamme and his circle have no qualms with meeting the demands of these rituals.
Their practices are completely disimilar from Fabienne's circle, and if not for Meoquamme's ancient potency, many Kindred believe that Fabienne would have wiped them out.
Its importlant to note that although Meoquamme based his beleif structure origionally off of a circle that he was a part of a very long time ago, it has since diverged almost completely from those roots. To the point that they are basically completely seperate. Theres even rumors of certain kindred within Meoquamme's Circle that wish to spread their their version of Kindred Animism to other domains. 
Rumors spread of Meoquammes religous blood magic actually being slightly different in its application and how it is taught then other crone cruac. And some say that Meoquamme has even developed or discovered somehow completely unique disciplines that capitalize on his peoples beleif structure.
Unlike other Covenants, their membership is secret.
