Stood Ground
Spirit · Werewolf
Many recent high-profile news items have included homicide cases billed as “self-defense.”
These cases predominantly feature minority groups as victims, and questionable circumstances at best. Complexities in legal systems, racial and gender-based prejudices, and bureaucratic convenience have led to many cases not even ending with a verdict. The outrage caused by this phenomenon causes surprisingly little violence. But the pent-up aggression can sometimes lead to Stood Ground spirits. Stood Ground is a Wyld manifestation; it exists as an outward, reactive energy. Not infectious. Not corrupt. Just more energy than it can fit in a small space. Stood Ground is raw dynamism.
Stood Ground feeds on rage, frustration, and all the very human things that often foster Wyrm spirits. It’s very territorial, and often fights off Wyrm spirits in its area. More than a few have been corrupted after such confrontations.
