The Get of Fenris

I am Fist~of~Stone, Get of Fenris Philodox. I don't have the Gifts of a Glass Walker, but I felt it important to dispel some of the myths, falsehoods and outright lies spread about my tribe, and the World Wide Web seemed the place to do it. After all, this is the end of the twentieth century, isn't it? And not all Garou have an aversion to technology, particularly those of us that have grown up surrounded by it.

First and foremost:
We are not Nazis!
I am sick and tired of taking flak for Adolf Hitler and his goose-stepping flunkies. Yes, the Get are primarily of Nordic and Germanic heritage, and we are extremely proud of that fact. However, only a very small portion of out tribe sided with the Axis powers in World War II. Far more were in the Allied forces that stormed Normandy, cutting a swath all the way to Berlin. We were on the front lines all the way, and it was the Get of Fenris that dealt the death-blow to the Third Reich.

We are not White Supremacists!
Again, a few bad apples ruin the reputation of the tribe as a whole. We and our Kinfolk were separated from the rest of the Garou for a long time. We worked very hard to strengthen both ourselves and our Kin (human and lupine). It is our duty to test the weak, to make them stronger, and we will not shirk our responsibility to them. We look after our Kinfolk, and they look after us.

Ragnarok is coming.
Those who don't believe that will be the first to fall. We must constantly test the other tribes to be assured that at least some of them will be able to fight at the end time. Without us always nipping at their heels (and wherever necessary) they would all be content to let the Wyrm close in while they lounge around sniffing the daisies.

Fenris' Chosen are not thugs and bullies.
We love a good fight, no one will argue that. Most of us fervently hope that we will fall in battle against the Wyrm, taking as many of Jormangundr's servants with us as possible. We are Gaia's Claws, we are Get. This is who we are. We also protect the weak, while trying to show them how to fight for themselves. The Fangs of Garm, a camp within our tribe, have sworn to keep the Wyrm from slipping insidiously through the cracks of society. They form neighborhood watches in high crime areas, and they have been seen demonstrating for many minority groups and protesting companies who wreak ecological havoc. Don't make the mistake of confusing their social activism for weakness, however. They are Get after all. And they aren't above vigilantism to safeguard their charges.

Now that I have told you what we aren't, I can tell you what we are.
