Searle Remond
"Know me! I am Searle Speaks-with-Ancient-Truth Remond,
Philodox of the Moon Lodge, Claith in service to House Wyrmfoe of the
Alpha Tribe. Killer of Banes and cleanser of the tainted. Servant of Owl
and Lord Falcon, Alpha of Owl's White Shadow. Son of Marc
Heals-Wounds-of-Memory Remond, Theurge of House Wyrmfoe, may the Ancestors
respect him. Make yourself known or leave this place!"
Such is the typical "greeting" given by Searle. Still a young man by the
standards of many, being but twenty-five years old, he is the oldest in
the Pack. He must tread a difficult line between working for the good of
his Pack, the Sept, and the Tribe in general, and that is aggravated by
his past.
Searle was a member of a pack sent out to battle the Wyrm, but under the
charge of a Shadow Lord. The Lord seemed more interested in gaining
personal glory through the Pack than actually striking against the Enemy.
This brought him and Searle to loggerheads at one point. The circumstances
are unclear, but he was exiled from his Sept until he could prove his
worth to the Tribe. Either that, or he could join his Ancestors. Tough
choice.
Choosing exile over death, he headed south, down to Kansas City and the
Sept of Silvermoon there. After a time of getting his bearings, he
assembled a pack with the express purpose of showing why the Fangs were
born to lead by defeating the Wyrm. Anything from cleansing Tainted
buildings to killing Banes, to tracking heavily tainted narcotics.
The recent death of Stefan de Haldat du Lys, Eyes of Judgement and
Seneschal to the Sept has caused Searle to rethink some of his motives,
and to offer greater weight to the words of the Athro.
Searle isn't normally soft spoken, preferring
to be blunt and to the point. That way there's no question as to what his
orders are. He seems to think he can change the world, or at least a
significant part of it, though whether idealism, overconfidence or hubris
is the cause of this is impossible to say. Though he has great faith in
both the Silver Fangs and the Garou Nation, he harbours what could be
called at best a dislike of most of the other breeds he has encountered.
The Corax are treated with a grudging tolerance when he chooses to speak
with any of the "damn Fera" at all, and the pack has as little as possible
to do with any of the other werecreatures as a result.
Searle does not dress in the manner of many other Silver Fangs, both
through his own lack of funds and an acute sense of socio-political
realism (To wit, posh people in the slums get kicked in). To that end, he
wears simple blue jeans and a white t shirt. Black boots and a black
leather biker jacket add to the illusion that he's an off-duty Hell's
Angel. The stainless steel chain across the front of his jacket helps as
well. His face is well-defined and not unattractive, aided by his
pulled-back white hair, though it is hardly the most attractive by many
standards.
