Purgers

The Purgers (Fallen Bears) are fallen Gurahl.

Overview

From MET Book of the Wyrm:

"Purgers hear the world scream in pain. Their long sleep was haunted by it. Now it is time for a new beginning. Now is the time for the world to be purged of all so that it may be reborn from the ashes.

The Gurahl went to sleep in order to escape the fury that threatened them during the War of Rage. Many went to this sleep already enraged at the foolishness of the Garou. Purgers allowed that rage to consume them as they slept. In their dreams they saw atrocity after atrocity, and they watched the Garou perpetrate, ignore or be ineffective against the rape of the land. The anger that was within them boiled slowly and deeply into their souls until it was all they could see, all they could remember. They woke ready to destroy the world in order to cleanse it, convinced that no living being is worthy of saving. If the world were destroyed, it could be born again from the ashes of the old one. They accept that they must kill everything in the world in order for it to be reborn to Gaia's original intentions.

The Purgers have abandoned their roles as healers and teachers. They work to bring about the End Days and to ensure that nothing escapes the cleansing fires of the Apocalypse. To achieve this end, they dedicate all their talents and energy to destructive arts. They use a rite of tainting to force other changers away from caerns and other pure lands. They also work to taint food supplies, water and the air in order to purge the human population. They normally work alone, but they can work with others for a common goal. When not moving behind the scenes spreading their poisons, they delight in killing sprees."

Systems

"Purgers have turned their backs on their totem, so the Gifts that they use are twisted. Wherever a Gurahl Gift would heal, theirs harms. Where a Gurahl Gift would cleanse, theirs taints. The same is true of their rites. They are the same rites as those they learned, but these rites are skewed to bring about corruption and death."
