Carlita "Big Sis" Gutierreze is Bone Gnawer Homid Philodox, and member of the Silver River Pack.
History[]
Not all Garou undergo their First Change during the awkward years of late adolescence - for some it happens unpleasantly earlier. Carlita is one of those young Garou, and she's taken to her Lupine nature in a way that few other youthful werewolves do. While her First Change was certainly traumatic - she had holed up in one of her familiar hiding places in downtown Tampa when the change overtook her and regained her wits to find a family of dead Cuban squatters in tatters around her - she quickly understood that to make up for what she was, she had to do her best in the war of the Apocalypse.
Now, at age 15, Carlita is something of a prodigy. By way of reconciliation with that unfortunate family, Carlita wants to become a Mother or even Grandmother among the Bone Gnawers one day. She's taken the first tentative steps, earning the name "Big Sis" as an acknowledgment of her rank and drive. Carlita's modus operandi isn't the sort of pseudo-liberal policy of social progressiveness that ignorant Garou often mistakenly ascribe to the downtrodden Bone Gnawers, however. Her methods are much more direct. As a Philodox, she feels eminently qualified to judge her foes' value, but she also takes on the role of punisher, kicking those foes in the balls and then burying her Fang Dagger in the base of their necks as they double over. Other candidates for Mothers and Grandmothers often establish themselves as caretakers, helping other out. Carlita prefers to help by eliminating hindrances. To date, she's bested Banes and Black Spiral Dancers, served as a facilitator between the Sept of the Wounded Bay and the Follow North Sept in west central Florida, and even helped a prophesized pack of Garou challenge a Lore Bane and the Wyrm-beast Jo'cllath'mattric.
Big Sis' current agenda has brought her home once again to Tampa, where she continues to serve as the right-hand 'Gnawer to Mother Eldridge in Tampa and as the "mouth of the South" between two septs.

Carlita is rangy and lean, which is evident in her Lupus form as well as her human form. As a woman, she stands under five and a half feet tall, dwarfed all the more by her oversized army-surplus jacket and baggy chinos or jeans. Her hair is black and stringy, which she often pulls up under an old-school Tampa Bay Bucs hat. In her wolf-form, Carlita's fur is a patchy black and brown, making her look more like an overgrown mutt than a wolf. Even in Crinos form, Carlita is thin, giving her a deceptively underpowered appearance.
