Thomas Hard Rain

Thomas Hard Rain ("Screams-in-Fury") is a Lupus Ahroun Uktena. He is the Pack Leader of the Red Fangs of the Wyld Pack.

Biography

Screams-in-Fury grew up among the wolf-pack secretly maintained by the Uktena within the boundaries f the reservation. Even as a cub, he was a wanderer, and often strayed far from his pack's normal hunting grounds. An early encounter with poachers who had stolen into the reservation via the nearby Namtahala National Forest marked him with an intense hatred for humans. His First Change was traumatic, since he was forced to come to terms with his own partly human nature.

The members of the Sept of the Seven Clans found the young Garou difficult to deal with because of the intensity of his Rage. Although he never officially joined the ranks of the Ronin, Screams-in-Fury had so many differences with members of the sept that he finally struck off on his own, taking with him a few other Garou who, like him, were dissatisfied with the relative inactivity of their septmates. He blames Ayita Stormcrow for poisoning the minds of the elders against him.

Calling themselves the Red Fangs of the Wyld, Screams-in-Fury and his pack roam the national forests, parks and unclaimed wilderness areas of Appalachia seeking excuses to vent their fury at those who would despoil Gaia. He refuses to recognize the boundaries which divide Appalachia into distinct protectorates, and his incursions into the territory claimed by the Sept of the Changing Seasons has earned him the eternal hatred of Patrick Sheehan ("Striker"), the Sept's Keeper of the Land. He has sworn that their next meeting will be their last.

When he has had to interact with humans, Screams-in-Fury has taken the name Thomas Hard Rain, calling himself after an apocalyptic protest song he heard once and whose sentiments he admires. Screams-in-Fury is particularly interested in rooting out Wyrm-creatures, but he is also responsible for retributive strikes on hunters and poachers. His chief ambition is to acquire some powerful fetish that will enable him to destroy as many of Gaia's defilers as possible.

In Homid form, Screams-in-Fury is an extremely muscular, though not excessively tall, Cherokee male with shaggy black hair that falls into his eyes. His Lupus form, in which he is more comfortable, is that of a compact, sinewy dark brown (nearly black) wolf. His Crinos form is nearly as broad as it is tall and extremely hairy.
