Elektra Daygreeter

Elektra Daygreeter is a Homid Philodox Black Fury from Appalachia.

Overview

Born into the Greek Orthodox community of western North Carolina, Elektra constantly rebelled against the traditional female roles encouraged by her family. Her obvious intellectual curiosity was a source of both pride and embarrassment to her parents, who failed to understand why their youngest daughter could not be satisfied with "girlish" expectations. Only Elektra's grandmother, a matriarch from the Old Country, seemed nonplused by her granddaughter's discontent, assuring her that "everything you are going through now has a greater purpose which will be made clear to you in time."

Just before Elekrta's thirteenth birthday, her grandmother announced that she intended to make a pilgrimage, to return to Greece for what might be a final visit. Furthermore, she insisted that Elektra accompany her on her journey. Thus it was that on the secluded isle of Eccube (see Caerns: Places of Power), among the Black Fury Garou who regarded her grandmother as Kinfolk and sister, Elektra underwent her First Change and came into her legacy.

Elektra's family noticed a marked change in their rebellious daughter upon her return from Greece, but attributed it to the maturing process. To all intents, Elektra became a model child, although somewhat secretive. She developed an interest in hiking and camping, using supervised camping trips as an excuse to make contact with the Sept of the Grandfather. After finishing high school, Elektra enrolled at Appalachian State University in Boone, NC, where she quickly became active in local efforts to help abused women and children.

Elektra now divides her time between the wilderness, where she serves as a liaison between the Sept of the Grandfather and other local Garou, and the nearby urban centers where she pursues her guardianship of the area's human population, specifically women and children. As a volunteer for several women's help groups in western North Carolina, she specializes in helping women extract themselves from abusive situations - a difficult task in a region where violence is often regarded as a normal mode of communication. She usually succeeds. She pays particular attention to the safety of female hikers and campers who make use of the Appalachian Trail and the many campgrounds in the Blue Ridge mountains.

In Homid form, Elektra is a compactly built woman in her late 20s, with olive skin, dark curly hair, and piercing dark eyes - evidence of her Greek ancestry. She favors loose clothing such as flannel shirts and denim and wears no jewelry except for small gold studs in her ears. Her Lupus form is that of a chunky black wolf with white streaks running through her slightly crinkled fur.
