Unlidded Eye (WTA)
Unlidded Eye is a rank 4 homid Philodox Shadow Lord.[1]
History
The Unlidded Eye had not used his human name in years, and any of his subordinates who use it within earshot of other Garou are soundly cuffed. Born in New England, the Eye underwent his First Change at age 13 and demonstrated a knack for extracting the truth from captured foes while running with a pack. The Judges of Doom recruited him, and he quickly rose through the ranks of the Garou until finding his post as a diplomat and Judge.
When conducting interrogations, the Eye learns everything he can about the accused and uses it to best advantage. Usually, that means pushing buttons until the Garou frenzies (which the Eye can curb with his Gifts, if necessary) and then renewing the questioning with new aggression, exhausting the accused into telling the truth. One tactic the Eye does not use is lying - he considers lying to obtain the truth the worst kind of hypocrisy.
Image
The Unlidded Eye is a short, stocky man in his 30s. He has dark hair, fair skin, and a gaze that wavers between sympathetic indulgence and flesh-crawling cruelty. He always dresses well, and though he usually appears completely at rest, he never allows himself to relax entirely.

Fetishes: Metronome of Truth (Level 2, Gnosis 6): This device, which resembles an ordinary wooden metronome, is the Unlidded Eye's favorite interrogation tool. When activated, it will tick continuously, adding +1 to the difficulties of any mental roll made in the room (including Subterfuge rolls made to lie convincingly). This difficulty modifier increases by one every half-hour (cumulative) to a maximum of +4.
