Bull Roarer is an elder lupus Philodox Uktena who was born in the 1940s. He is the leader of the Sept of the White Water in New York state. [1]

Biography[]

Bull Roarer is the keeper of the Caern of the White Water on Goat Island at the foot of Niagara Falls. He is an old shaman and warrior who comes from a long line of natives that regularly produce powerful Garou. He grew up with a great hate of other Garou tribes, and was a powerful critic of any attempt to cooperate with them. However, when he was a young man, he worshipped at the caern, and received a vision from the spirit Uktena. In his vision he inhabited the body of the Uktena shaman who lost the caern and regained it from the Fianna. This vision humbled him, and made him eager to share power with the Fianna, but not the other Wyrmcomers.

Since he spent his early years opposing the Wyrmcomers, he was trusted by hard-line Uktena. When he relented, they relented.

Bull Roarer now tends the caern and presides over Uktena council meetings. The biggest challenges to his rule come from Clubfoot Razorneck and Robert Kinsolver. Ironically, Bull Roarer most fears Kinsolver, even though he admires the young Garou, and Razorneck has mounted the real challenge to his authority. This is because he feels he can control the brute force of Razorneck, but can't rein in Kinsolver's calls for change. Though he agrees with Kinsolver, he feels the young man is pushing for too much change too rapidly. He prays he can keep the New York Uktena from splitting and warring on themselves.

Only in a hopeless situation will he remove it from hiding. It is a flute (must be in homid form to play) which, when blown, will play a song sung by Croatan Galliards long ago. Any Wyrm creatures hearing it will flee in terror - no roll required. This includes Black Spiral Dancers, who will additionally suffer Harano).
