We Blame Our Parents

Name: We Blame Our Parents (Derogatory: Upstarts)

Totem: Coywolf - Totem of Cunning - Evolution, Adaption, Rebirth

Description: The Rites and Traditions of the Garou are ancient, extending back to a time before civilization. From the beginning the Wolves have defined themselves as a people and a culture from their past, drawing strength from it and using it as a guide to wage the never ending war against the Wyrm. And yet they are losing.

At some point, something needs to change. For the pack We Blame Our Parents, that time is now. Abandoning the past to forge a new way, this pack of Upstarts seeks to create new Traditions and invent a new culture, one that recognizes the world as it is. While Edward Gunn and his crew learn and remember what has come before, they are trying to find a new way, one that they hope will lead to victory.

Following the newborn Totem Coywolf, the Pack has met with a lot of success, earning Renown and scoring victories as they work to protect the Desert Sept Caern, a huge well of power with multiple smaller caerns which share a single leyline network. Without the Upstarts, the Verde Park Well would be unprotected.

In addition to protecting Verde Park, We Blame Our Parents have learned of a Hellgate somewhere in the city, and have discreetly been trying to locate and secure it.

The Pack’s position in the city is tenuous. Hand Me the Gun and Ask Me Again has a good relationship personally with the Sept leader, Gilead, and the Desert Morning Pack recognizes the importance of the Upstarts. But both Coyote Skull and Quiet Thunder view Gunn’s Pack as Heretics, and the only thing these two agree on is the need to push the Upstarts out of Phoenix and if possible, destroy them.

So far, both Gunn and Gilead outrank the other pack leaders. But if something were to happen where the Sept did not feel it needed the Upstarts, maybe through an alliance within the Community, war would break out.
