Cries-at-Night

Cries-at-Night is a Silver Fang Galliard Keeper of the Land of the Sept of the Crescent Moon, in Russia.[1]

Biography

Cries-at-Night had her first litter of pups just before she was taken for her Rite of Passage. After the rite was over, she returned to claim and raise her pups. She found they had been recently slain, the victims of a large Siberian oil spill. It was at that point that Cries-at-Night underwent her true rite of passage. In her grief, she managed to summon up and destroy all of the Banes present in the oil spill area. Afterwards, it was her wish that no one speak of what had happened. The other Garou agreed to this, but her fellow Galliards placed an image of her on the Wall of Heroes. The picture is one of a pure silver Crinos standing over five dead wolf cubs. She is clawing a Bane with each hand and is herself being mauled by a third. If anyone watches this picture for very long, they will see the Garou go on to kill all three Banes and then lay the bodies of the cubs to rest. Continued observation of the wall will show Cries-at-Night tending the lands about the caern while the spirits of the cubs play at her feet.

Appearance

Cries-at-Night is a very average looking silver wolf. In Homid form, she appears as a woman in her late twenties. Anyone paying close attention will notice that she has scars running from her neck to her knees along her underside.

In order to attune to it, the Garou must permanently give up two points of Gnosis, and the fetish may not accept the Garou even then.)
