History of the World... Or at least THIS game.

This chronicle/game follows the lore and history of the Garou up to the year 1999, it is there it breaks from the meta plot described in the revised editions of the game. The path it takes now is one that incorporates the story that was included in the beginning of the the 20th anniversary book, involving the 8th sign, the revised Prophecy of the Phoenix.

In 1999 the Red Star, Anthelios, the Eye of the Wyrm, appeared in the Umbral sky. The appearance of Anthelios was seen as a terrible portent by Garou and Fera alike, as it was named in the prophetic vision of the Silent Strider Abd al Hakim and was/is said to herald the end of days. And while there was an increase in Wyrm cult activity, nothing else happened. There was no perfect Metis born, Garou births dropped suddenly, then returned to thier previous dismal numbers, indicating that the end was not nigh as thought. This had many scholars debating the timeline of the prophecy as well as the prophecy itself.

Some argue that the end was near, as the decimation of wolf kin and the rise of man in greater and greater numbers, are the first and second sign of the prophecy. Others argued this was where the time discrepancy comes up, for this has been happening for hundreds of years, man hunting the wolf kin and spreading like a plague across Gaia. Even the argument about the increasing wars was a moot one, for mankind has made war upon himself for centuries. And so, the debate goes on, are these the end days or not?


The revelation of the eighth prophecy was reveled, and hope was givento the Garou Nation by Blackpaw a child of Phoenix. The future was not set in stone, there was hope.
