Wyrm Foe (Sept Standing •••)
Caern · Werewolf
Responsibilities: The Wyrm Foe’s responsibilities are partly practical, partly ritual. At the end of each moot, the Wyrm Foe leads the sept in declaring its solidarity with the Garou Nation and readiness to do battle with the Wyrm. More practically, the Wyrm Foe is the offensive counterpart of the Warder, in charge of coordinating the sept’s packs in their assaults against the Wyrm. When the sept needs to defend itself, the Wyrm Foe works under the Warder to make sure that the sept’s packs are armed and positioned for defense, instead of offense. Because he must submit to the authority of the Warder, the Wyrm Foe is seen as a position of lesser status, and many Wyrm Foes aspire to replace the Warder, either by serving honorably and receiving a promotion when the Warder steps down, or through scheming and challenges.
Benefits: The Wyrm Foe is the focus of the sept’s martial fury and discipline. He urges the Garou to make use of their inner beasts, but to do so constructively. All Garou who hear the Wyrm Foe speak before a battle require an extra success on Rage rolls to give in to frenzy for the duration of the fight.
