believe the original conversation centered around questions on what exactly constitutes "meta-gaming" for Wild Fauna. I'm also curious about this, since the general rule from the guidebook seems to stifle creativity when it comes to Wild Fauna x Wolf interactions:

These characters may be close companions to wolves but cannot be used unfairly to meta-game or aid in combat. It will be the responsibility of involved players to report any suspected abuse.

What exactly does this mean? To me, and based on what I read in chat, it means that my weaksauce cougar Umi would be unable to help a wolf she was best friends with if they were in trouble.

It was mentioned that using a bird Wild Fauna to learn about pack whereabouts is considered meta-gaming, but I don't think this should be the case. If I'm a player willing to play a bird, and I'm willing to put in the time to have my character cross a large swath of map and try my best to listen in on a conversation, then go all the way back and tell (potentially incorrect information) to a wolf, why is this a problem?

For NPCs, this rule makes more sense, since in general NPCs can't be used to gain new information or aid in combat. An actual character makes less sense, and I'm honestly not sure where the line is or why it's there.
