The Werewolves

Werewolves are the nemesis of kindred, after the great flood most of the sinners where eradicated but, few vampires endured, the 13 Antediluvian´s and so evil endured, and so the werewolf was chosen by Gaia, mother earth to put on check the kindred that plagued the earth, Werewolves where shaman, mystics and sorcerer´s that where chosen by Gaia to destroy that which is unclean, and so the battle between Lupines and Kindred began.

Tribes of shapeshifters, its what describe the Garou society, shapeshifters that control their bodies and transform into a beast that can rip to shreds a dozen kindred or 1 Elder. Werewolves are the answer for exterminating the Cancer of the abomination that started with Cain. The warform of a werewolf is best described as death. The Werewolf is a formidable predator for all kindred since all Garou can go to the Umbra, the shadow world where wraiths and ghosts live, to everyone else it would be as to trying to look at air, you know its there but you just cant see it.

Vampires fear the Garou for the ability to go to the Umbra and ambushing a Cainite in his Haven. Lupine hunters is not a title that many kindred wish for but a well prepared vampire can stand a chance with the right tools, the problem is that most Werewolves travel in packs so unless you separate them from the pack it will be a long night with many kindred kissing the light of day.
All Garou have different Gifts opposed to disciplines that kindred have, but both share a common weakness, the Frenzy, The beast in the kindred and the Rage of the Garou. When a Garou rages its because of the goddess Luna.The gift of madness she gave to all Garou that gives them tremendous strength but makes them no more than rabid dogs, and the gift of Gnosis similar to the Polynesian concept of MANA, or the Eastern concept of CHI. While all creatures have some spiritual component, Garou can consciously control and use it. Garou are quite literally half-spirit already and Gnosis reflects how connected they are to their other half.
