Sept of Grinding Stone

The Caern

The Sept

Tribal Structure
There are three packs, one of Black Furies, one of Shadowlords and one of Get of Fenris, held together by the Silverfang Sept Leader, Commands-the-Waters. Each pack seems to have a section of the bawn that it protects and patrols.

Elders

• Sept Leader - Commands the Waters
  (Female, Lupus, Ahroun, Silver Fang, Rank 4)
  A mighty and noble warrior who commands the respect of all her sept, Commands-The-Waters is a great silver-white wolf with ice blue eyes. Her wisdom, gained over her forty-odd years, eases many of the clashes that flare up between the tribes. Commands-The-Waters lives at the Caern.

• Caern Warder - Huros Bathes-in-Blood
  (Male, Homid, Ahroun, Get of Fenris, Rank 4)
  Huros is the sort of Get that gives the tribe its reputation. A great muscular man in his late thirties with short blond hair, blue eyes and many scars, Huros is a complete beserker who never does things by halves. When clothed at all, Huros wears flannel shirts and fatigues. He lives at the Caern.

• Master of the Challenge - Ivana Howls-the-Storm
  (Female, Homid, Galliard, Shadow Lord, Rank 3)
  Ivana is responsible for keeping track of local, state and federal policy that impacts on the area. Ivana is a slim woman of around forty, with stark white, almost luminescent skin, straight black hair, green eyes and narrow features. Ivana has at least one address in Melbourne.

  (Male, Homid, Theurge, Uktena, Rank 4)
  In sharp contrast to the nordic Get of Fenris, Malajimbarra is a thin aboriginal man of around fifty. Malajimbarra is old beyond his years: his face is a mass of wrinkles, his long hair and beard are grey, his skin is rough and leathery. Malajimbarra wears little but a loin cloth. He lives at the Caern.

• Gatekeeper - Anastasia Evenhand
  (Female, Homid, Philodox, Black Fury, Rank 3)
  Anastasia is from the Balkans; a handsome woman in her thirties. Her hair is completely white and her eyes are grey. Anastasia usually wears rugged outdoor clothing and sturdy hiking boots.

Gaia's Rage

  Athena appears to be in her late 30s. She has black hair and brown eyes and habitually wears a hoodie. Her metis deformity appears to be a form of conjoined twin - on the back of her head is a dead and deformed face that changes form with her.

• Amelia Vedi (Female, Homid, Galliard, Black Fury, Rank 2)

  A woman in her mid twenties, Amelia has long black hair, dark skin and brown eyes. Unlike the others, she wears simple robes and dresses. She seems reserved and slightly unsure of herself

Blood Claw

• Mark Sutherland - Pack Leader (Male, Homid, Ahroun, Get of Fenris, Rank 3)

• Ingrid Gruber (Female, Homid, Theurge, Get of Fenris, Rank 2)

  Although born in Germany, Ingrid is of Jamaican descent. A tall woman in her mid twenties, Ingrid has long wavy black hair, mocha-coloured skin and grey eyes. Ingrid prefers to wear leathers, most of which she has hunted herself. Ingrid lives at the Caern.

Heralds of War

• Sveta Dotashkoi - Pack Leader
  (Female, Homid, Ahroun, Shadowlord, Rank 3)
  Sveta is a fledgling puppet master: travelling far, making contacts, influencing events, controlling people. A woman of forty, with short brown grey hair and blue eyes, Sveta is often underestimated. Sveta dresses appropriately to the occassion. She has a house in Durdidwarrah, and may have others.

• Peter Beauchamp
  (Male, Homid, Galliard, Shadow Lord, Rank 2

• Night-that-Screams
  (Male, Lupus, Theurge, Shadow Lord, Rank 3)
  Night-That-Screams is a lean wolf with very long and matted black fur, and green eyes. His face has been heavily tatooed with ritual patterns.

Fallen Garou

• Hans Dieter
  (Male, Homid, Galliard, Get of Fenris, Rank 1)
  Hans had covered his body with tatoos and scars, and so usually goes around topless, the better to display his art. He was killed by Huros Bathes-in-Blood for unknown reasons.

• Rakes-the-Earth
  (Male, Lupus, Philodox, Get of Fenris, Rank 2)
  Rakes-The-Earth was a virtual Red Talon when it comes to the issue of humans, and it was often only the influence of his pack that kept him in check. Rakes-The-Earth was a large grey-brown timber wolf with brown eyes and a missing left ear. He was killed fighting the Wyrm
