Screamin' Joe Huckster

Screamin' Joe Huckster ("Brother-of-Madness") is a Metis Galliard Black Spiral Dancer. He is the Pack Leader of the Black Spiral Square Dancers.

Biography

Screamin' Joe parents were both Black Spiral Dancers, and he was brought up in the belly of the Wyrm. His First Change came early (his parents beat him until he raged), and his mother died at the young Garou's hands. Joe was fostered with Kinfolk, where he was given a rudimentary education and taught to deal with humans. He terrorized his foster family religiously. The only thing that could pacify him was music, and he demonstrated a real flair for guitar, banjo and almost any other stringed instrument.

His derangement manifested itself about the same time he conceived the idea of forming a band. Screamin' Joe believes that his music-inspired dances will succeed in bringing all its listeners to the truth of the Wyrm. He cannot stop singing or humming or picking out some tune; silence drives him into a frenzy. His pack is hand-picked for their musical ability as well as their willingness to swallow his messianic urges. He wants to turn western North Carolina into the world's biggest Hive, with him as its leader.

Other pack members include the Ahroun bass player Pete Roach ("Slimesucker"), Theurge fiddler Rae Ellen Gantrie ("Sleeps-with-Trash"), and mandolin player Tiny Bob White (a three-hundred pound hairless metis Ragabash).

In wolf form, Screamin' Joe is an oily-coated black, leggy wolf with pale yellow, snakelike eyes. As a human, he appears as a rangy, darkly attractive man with long, greased-back black hair. His snake-eyes are the same in all his forms. He cleans himself up for performances, but "at home" he is slovenly and unkempt.
