Everything

Balefire Sharks lack the freedom of the open seas because they need to feed on radiation too often to stray far into open waters. In addition, all but the most thoughtless or self-serving Rokea is horrified and enraged at seeing a wereshark who has become a radioactive monster. Almost all Rokea feel a strong desire to attempt to kill the Balefire Shark and then to dispose of its body on land or in one of the deepest undersea trenches. Most Balefire Sharks give up the wide-ranging travels of their former Breed and lurk near a particular corrupt location. Some become the guardians of Wyrm Grottos, protecting the vile location from outside interference and using it to summon banes and fomori that go forth to do the Wyrm’s bidding. Others protect coastal nuclear power plants from interference. These Balefire Sharks bask in illegal radioactive discharges into the ocean, and spend time both on land and in the water making certain that none of the Changing Breeds can interfere with the reactor.

Nothing like the blast that killed most of the Rokea has happened since the 1950s, but periodically weresharks encounter radiation seeping into the ocean. Some become fatally ill from this exposure and balefire elementals seek them out and offer to heal them. Like in 1955, a few choose to become Balefire Sharks.
