Joey Russo/Introduction

What's there to know? That depends entirely on who you are. To the mortal world, she's a teenager. Someone hovering on the fringes of social norms. A geek, an outsider. A poor one at that, but not a vagrant. The girl tends to get ignored by those who pass her by, she's too polite to be considered trouble, too shy to be friendly, and just too plain to be noticed. For those with a deep and intimate knowledge of organized crime, specific to the Italians of New York, Joey might be a little more notable - if you can manage to put two and two together to get five. Her father worked in that community, with a reputation as a very hard man. When he died in the early summer of 2015 in the midst of a really nasty turf war, his princess disappeared for her own safety. She was never part of the business, but who knows what secrets he holds? Beyond the mortal world, in the inner workings of the garou nation, the same man was very well known. His posthumous riting of Elder as a theurge of the Glass Walkers was in response to his sacrifice in the battle for the caern, a fight won hard with the loss of two-thirds of the defenders, local and reinforcements alike. There are rumors about the girl losing her senses when she witnessed the battle, and others about strange spiritual curses. Whatever the reason, the young kin was shipped post-haste to the west coast. How long she'll be here, is anyone's guess.
