Long-River-Runs

Long-River-Runs is a rank 2 homid Warding Mokolé.[1]

History

Raised by unknowing Kinfolk, Monah journeyed to the remains of Crocodilopolis with her family while still a child. There, the Hem-Ka Sobk noticed her, and explained (to the best of their knowledge) what she was. She returned to the oasis periodically over the years to hear their stories, and when they were old enough, her younger sisters came with her. Both of her sisters witnessed her First Change, and were awestruck by the magnificent creature that Monah became. Now all three girls are adults, and Monah works as a schoolteacher in Al-Jizah. She is not a member of the Black River Shore clutch, but is on good terms with the Mokolé there and has learned much from them. She spends much of her free time on the banks of the Nile, searching the Memory for a clue on how to find Khepri's descendant.

Storyteller's Note: Any Silent Strider could, in theory, be a descendant of Khepri, including any of the Striders mentioned in this book, even (here's a thought) a player's character. The character need not know anything about Khepri of the Dam, or have any inkling on how to "save" the Mokolé, because the Striders are, after all, cut off from their ancestors. If Monah attaches herself to a character and starts asking for recompense for Sabah's aid to Khepri, this is likely to confuse (and hopefully intrigue) the Strider in question. But if there is no way to verify her feeling , how does the Garou know he is truly a descendant of Khepri? And honestly, does it matter, so long as he can somehow help the Mokolé?

In human form, Long-River-Runs is called Monah, and is a lovely Arabic woman in her late 20s. She does not wear the veil, preferring to wear comfortable, casual clothes (which are often dusty or muddy). In suchid form, she is a 10-foot Nile crocodile. In archid form, she retains her crocodilian shape (and buoyancy) but is much longer (nearly 35 feet!) and manifests a cluster of spikes on her tail and a poisonous bite.
