Timothy Blackard
Timothy Blackard, "Mirco-Wolf", is a Glass Walker Ragabash often seen traveling the Digital Web. Despite being born as a Homid, he is so short that he is often mistaken for a Metis by other Garou.
Biography
Mirco-Wolf is a Glass Walker werewolf born of human parents. He was the runt of the litter, a midget with a rough, animalistic face. He was abandoned and lived in institutions until the Glass Walkers found and rescued him. Though he is Homid (born of human parents), many werewolves mistake him for a Metis (an inbred mutation), and shun him. His packmates don't care where he spends his time; consequently, he is out to prove a few things.
He's been breaking things, fixing them and then breaking them again for as long as he can remember. After all the mechanical tinkering he'd done, computers seemed like the next logical step. He gained a little respect among his tribe by solving problems with his head and his computers (not to mention with a lot of flair). He visited the CyberRealm and blundered into a conduit that led him to the Digital Web. He finds people on the Web less judgmental than people in the outside world and has made the Web his second home.
Although he's very sensitive about his height, he insists on appearing smaller than he really is in the physical world. He insists that people accept him for what he is, rather than creating an idealized image. When he transforms into a werewolf on the Web, he usually remains small, the way he looks in the physical world, but sometimes he indulges himself by turning into a monstrously tall, slavering monster.
Appearance
Short, real short - so short it hurts your neck to look down at him. Don't let it show on your face though, because he's always looking for any hint of disdain over his size. Try not to crack a smile at the cowboy boots, dirty jeans, white shirt and black tie either. He may look too ridiculously short and squat to be a city cowboy, even with the leathery, abused face and the rawhide duster. But when he goes fuzzy, he'll be able to look you in the eye, tip his hat and rip your head off like lightning.
