Uktena

Category
One of the two surviving tribes to originate from the Pure Lands, the Uktena are no longer entirely of Native American stock, having incorporated many of the oppressed and dispossessed races into their mix. The Uktena are regarded as the greatest magicians amongst the Garou, though they are also sometimes (justly) distrusted for this, because their search for arcane knowledge oftentimes leads them to temptation by the Wyrm; many a promising Uktena has been corrupted to the Black Spiral Dancers, or driven mad by a journey into the Deep Umbra. The Wendigo, who the Uktena call Older Brother, still see the Uktena as the purest tribe next to their own, though, and usually take their side in conflict. Totem: Uktena Starting Willpower: 3 Starting Backgrounds: Any. BookRef: WWtA, pg 101 Uktena are said to be comprised of animistic peoples from all over the world. Most are of Native American heritage, though adopted werewolves are from a variety of backgrounds. The Uktena are a tribe of mystics, shamans and arcanists; because of their close ties to the magical and knowledge of the arcane many fear that there are those among them who may be turning to the Dark Arts, and their history of having their land gradually taken from them have made some of the Uktena very bitter indeed. Their main talent lies in the sealing of Banes, and as such they may have deeper knowledge of the Wyrm than the other tribes are comfortable with. Wiki Reference
