## Character Information

Heart-of-Winter always seems to have a bit of a grin on his face, at times appearing warm enough to make people forget that beneath his human skin this Lupus-born Wendigo is very much a child of the Wyld as well an enthusiastic headhunter, a practice he insists he learned from humans.  His twisted sense of humor and adventure stems from enduring his short, hard life of savage survival, tragic loss, and finding some closure on what had begun as a journey of unending vengeance.  It is no secret that before being found and taken in by the sept of the Racoon in Wisconsin, Heart-of-Winter was a rogue cub who spent the first months after his First Change hunting and slaughtering wolf hunters, having started with the hunters who killed his birth pack.  The elders at the sept were none too pleased when unknown piles of skulls were discovered within their protectorate by the locals, even less so when it attracted the attention of local Black Spirals.  He is the last survivor of Hell's Horde, a nomadic biker pack that picked him up after his Rite of Passage and showed him the ropes of what was good in life among the human world: sex, drugs, rock and roll, fighting and riding.  After the demise of Hell's Horde, Heart-of-Winter stayed lone wolf for quite a few years until the Bone Howlers let loose the call to war, a call he could not ignore.
