Andrew Blood-from-the-Shadows

Andrew Blood-from-the-Shadows is a Blood Talon Elodoth member of the Lodge of Swords.

Overview

Andrew is skinny, unattractive and a little slack-jawed, with an overbite that could open beer bottles. Always the omega of his first pack, something about his attitude always seemed to trigger insults and derision from even bonded packmates. He took his new life as a balancer of the Shadow and defender of the hunting ground very seriously - gravely so - but this too seemed to draw ridicule even from his pack. They laughed long and hard when he declared his intent to join the Suthar Anzuth, though the pack members soon stopped when he returned after passing his Rite of Initiation with eerie speed.

His life took another turn when his pack's territory began to erode under a powerful infestation of strange, previously unknown shartha. The pack lost fight after fight, and soon had to fall back to a secondary locus that offered little more than a trickle. Andrew, sick and tired of the whining and the defeat, decided to take matters into his own hands. He tracked out each locus in the area, assessed the creatures swarming over them, and then set about promising other local, stronger Forsaken packs huge slices of the hunting ground in return for striking at the invading spirit Hosts.

When he returned to his pack, he had given the other Forsaken enough information to succeed in destroying most of the invading creatures. His packmates were disgusted that he had surrendered their hunting ground to other packs, however. Andrew relayed the locations of each pack's loci, and led his own pack on a dark crusade, driving away those Forsaken who were still weakened from the assaults against the shartha and, in some cases, even butchering his rivals. In the space of a single night, he had removed the threat to the hunting ground and reduced all the rival packs to pathetic pockets of resistance. His own pack, now the only strong group in the region, moved to a more choice area and defended it easily against the broken packs that remained.

That was six months ago. The nerd still endures some derision from his packmates, but they all listen intently when he clears his throat and calmly suggests whom they should slaughter next, and how it fits into his greater plan. He is a young man always thinking of the potential successes and failures in any situation, and is ruthless beyond measure in ensuring his own hunting ground remains inviolate.
