Faolan Walsh/Introduction

Out from many a rock walled cavern eyes were watching through the night Many a Garou heart was beating for the blessed Luna light Murmurs ran along the valley to the banshee's lonely croon And a thousand claws were flashing by the rising of the moon By the rising of the moon, by the rising of the moon And a thousand claws were flashing by the rising of the moon All along that singing river, that black mass of Finn was seen High above their claws and weapons flew their own beloved green Death to every foe and wyrmkin, strike them hard and smite them doon And howl me kin for Gaia! 'tis the rising of the moon 'Tis the rising of the moon, 'tis the rising of the moon And howl me kin for Gaia! 'tis the rising of the moon. Faolan is an expatriate Australian of Irish heritage whose mother emigrated to Australia from the US. His grandmother is Fianna kinfolk, someone who Faolan has always kept strong ties with. During his childhood, Faolan's mother had a falling out with his grandparents, after which time she took on the life of a drifter, working within rural communities in Australia. Faolan's first change happened while holidaying in Los Angeles to celebrate his graduation. His grandmother contacted her local Fianna tribe, who snatched him up as cub to teach him the ways of the Garou. During a scouting mission, Faolan's pack was ambushed by an overwhelming force of Shadow Dancers. The Fianna fought viciously, but the Dancers were too numerous. Totem lost, the pack disbanded. While many of the remaining Fianna sought the Sept of Watchful Eye, Faolan's mentor decided he go with Faolan to join the local Fianna tribe within the Sept of Enduring Freedom. The loss of Faolan's pack has put a heavy toll on him, and has not been off to a great start. Dissing the local Sept Elder, showing defiance and insubordination have left him at odds with his Garou peers. Faolan hopes to amend his ways and become a true Garou, a proud warrior and Ragabash to the Fianna and Garou Nation.
