Owen Robinson

Owen Robinson is a Wendigo Hockey Player.

Overview

"It's a pack war. It's not six Owen Robinsons out there, And please shoot me if I ever refer to myself in the third person again."

More than 100 National Hockey League players have come from a single high school in Wilcox, Saskatchewan: the Athol Murray College of Notre Dame. The motto of this school is "Lucor et Emergo" - Struggle and Emerge. The Hounds have won countless provincial and national championships, and any young girl or boy who loves hockey would fight for the chance to be admitted to Notre Dame, with dreams of following in the footsteps of glorious alumni like Owen Robinson.

With Owen's amazing three goals in the last 5 minutes of the playoffs, leading the team through its most electrifying season in history, the Edmonton Oilers won their first Stanley Cup since 1990, and the media is having a field day. He doesn't exactly try to act humble about it, but they're idolizing him anyway. They're saying Own Robinson is the next Mark Messier, the next Wayne Gretzky, the next Mario Lemieux. And to tell the truth, he probably is. They can say whatever they want about him: that he's gay, that he's only getting the publicity because he's a Native American, that he's a giant asshole, that he's got a problem with getting into too many fights on and off the ice. All that matters is that he knows how to play hockey, and he knows how to lead a team to victory. He wants to win, and he wants to win by being the best. It doesn't matter what they say, because they will never know what he really is.

He doesn't just keep in touch with old Notre Dame out of charity. There are other traditions besides hockey that he needs to protect, and his Pack of Hounds keeps the honor of the tribe pure and alive. The school's a great place to give Wendigo a leg up on things, from a young age, to teach the cubs what they need to know. He's even getting Kinfolk students accepted, now, to keep a good eye on them. If any of the kids want to play hockey, he just considers that a bigger bonus. Right now he's getting three other guys drafted, two to the Maple Leafs, one to the Penguins; and his best friends Valentin Kovalenko has been with the Flames for two years. It's not just about money and fame to Owen and his Hounds - they're still Wendigo, after all. He knows it's all just a way to get at what really matters - power that doesn't come from things, but from Gaia. If the Wendigo are going to survive, going to win, they'll need that real power. And Owen Robinson knows that he's going to get it done, one way or another.
