Lars Johannssen

Lars Johannssen, "Jarl Torgus Firemane" is a Homid Ahroun Get of Fenris Sept Leader of the Sept of the Blood Fist.[1]

Torgus Firemane died during the battle for the Schwarzwald by a Black Spiral Dancer wielding a fetish called Wyrmblade. His sacrifice allowed the remaining Get of Fenris to capture and destroy the blade.[2]

Biography

Torgus Firemane has only recently become the Jarl of the Blood Fist Sept. Late last year, he was forced to challenge the previous Jarl, Raven Corpse-Killer, to a battle for the leadership of the sept. Raven was accused of consorting with the Wyrm, and his defeat was both brutal and final.

In truth, it was Raven who had started dealing with the Sabbat, trying desperately to find a way to slow the hideous creeping problem of growing old. The pain that Torgus felt at being forced to kill his own teacher was lessened by the knowledge that he had saved the old lupus from being fully corrupted by the Wyrm.

Over the last year, the trials of being Jarl have increased and Torgus often wonders if he is up to the challenge. He keeps his doubts to himself and will accept any challenge to his right to lead the sept - provided the challenger has just cause for the challenge.

Appearance

Torgus Firemane is of average height and is brutally wide. He has a chest span of four-and-a-half feet, and the rest of his body equally heavyset. Torgus' size as often reminds people of a tree. In all of his Garou forms, his hair is dark red with light blond highlights, Torgus has just turned 42.
