Silver Fangs

The traditional leaders and rulers of the Garou, the Silver Fangs are the archetype of the Garou hero. All of them are related to the heroes of yore in one way or another, and many of them can trace their bloodlines through human royalty as well. Although the Shadow Lords have begun, in recent years, to make their own bids for power, the Silver Fangs are still seen by nearly all as the rulers. They are traditional and honor bound, and their numbers dwindle regularly because of their selective breeding--indeed, some say that this inbreeding is causing madness in the Fangs. Still, they rule the Garou, and are deadly foes when arrayed against one. --------------- The Silver Fangs are the traditional rulers of the Garou Nation, with literally millennia of selective breeding and heroic tradition behind them. While many of the Garou Nation's finest leaders and warriors have come from the ranks of the Silver Fangs, in recent centuries the tribe's stock has fallen dramatically among its ostensible citizenry. Centuries and centuries of inbreeding has caught up with the tribe, with madness and stubborn clinging to tradition becoming more and more common among its senior members. Also, the rise of democratic thought across the world has weakened the tribe's ability to use its royal heritage as an asset, and prompted disaffected tribes to be vocal about their disagreements and disapprovals. Still, the Silver Fangs are far from defunct, and the rise of dynamic young leaders like King Albrecht in North America and Queen Tamara Tvarivich in Russia, along with the continued patronage of its noble totem Falcon, may give the tribe a much-needed infusion of strength and purpose.
