Established in 1887

The calling of their inner wolf brought the first werewolves together. The one werewolf that called them all, pulled them together into one rule was Matthew Bordeaux. He was the first alpha in the state. The hole of need, the drive, and the instinct of being a pack animal by nature was finally filled for the wolves.

For many decades Matthew ran the pack with an iron first, as was his nature as an army general. Most of the wolves appreciated this after lacking the pack and its formal structure for so long. But then there were the others who just gritted their teeth and bared it for the sake of the whole. Matthew ran his pack hard the whole time he was in power. He tolerated nothing; no pack law was to be bent or broken. Under his rule the smallest slip up could result in you being banished from the pack, marking your rogue. By marking werewolves as rogue Matthew didn’t know that he was sealing his undoing.

Matthew taught his wolves that structure was everything, power was everything, and without it the pack was nothing. He taught them to pass down from generation to generation that philosophy, the strong will to have perfection. Anything outside of the Kinbok is a blemish. They are bent on “purifying” the world by changing humans and teaching them that the only way, the right way, is the Kinbok life style. It isn’t below them to even try to convince, and by convince I mean use any means necessary, Vokul to switch over.

Though the tight reigns on the pack have loosened immensely since the uprising and unrest, the Kinbok are still a tight order group. Kinbok may yet find an alpha to bring compassion into their lives; to not only rule wisely but with their heart as well. The future may yet be bright for the Kinbok wolves because as of yet it is bleak.

[/b] The Kinbok clan has found devastation. Their one Alpha was killed by the Rogue wolves Wicked and Truth, leaving the throne vacant and the pack without direction. The pack desperately is in need for someone to step up and show leadership.[/ul]


Established in 1936

In 1933 young, powerful werewolf with her band of most trusted friends and allies rose up against Matthew, Abigail Belden. This was the first uprising in American werewolf history. To the pack and pack law it was just unfathomable to question or go against your alpha. But you can’t have two powerful werewolves in the same pack when they don’t share the same views; especially not when the second out powers the alpha considerable. This band of revolutionary rebels were tired of having to constantly look over their shoulders for pack enforcers coming to notify them with a letter, sealed with the pack emblem, from their alpha stating that they were no longer suitable for pack life. Before they could be labeled as unstable and thus Rogue they broke away from Kinbok. This caused the biggest frenzy yet. During this time no one knew whose allegiances lied where.

Vokul was formed at this time, anyone who wished to be free of Kinbok but did not wish to be Rogue came along with Abigail and her band of rebels. Abigail was fair but firm alpha. Kindness was brought into the loves of her wolves. She didn’t allow law breaking but as long as it was nothing too serious you’d just be punished as she saw fit. She didn’t want to exile anyone to be Rogue as Matthew did so carelessly; exile was only used for helpless cases of lost causes.

There is a long history between the Kinbok and the Vokul, none of it is too pleasant. There is a cold bitterness between the packs that doesn’t seem to be lessening, if anything it is just growing worse with the trying times that werewolves are facing as a species. Just as the Kinbok have been recruiting new werewolves to bulk up their numbers the Vokul have been doing the same. Except the Vokul aren’t going after just humans. They are going after hunters. With the hunter’s innate skills and abilities they are even stronger than the average werewolf once they are changed.

[/b] From the long line of powerful Belden’s a new alpha has taken the throne. Still young by werewolf standards, Gabriel Belden is untried. Though being the grandson of Abigail Belden he wields great power from his uninterrupted line of strong werewolves. He is determined to be just but firm, just like his ancestors. Abigail started the tradition of passing down the throne to the strongest and of age werewolf in the family; Gabriel was the first to receive the throne this way.[/ul]

Established in 1889

The band of Rogue werewolves were formed under the cold and calloused rule of Matthew Bordeaux. Any werewolf who didn’t conform to his idea of perfection was deemed Rogue. To the Kinbok to be considered Rogue was to be seen as mentally unsound, unfit for pack life. Being mentally unsound was not always the case; someone could have been banned for simply not liking the color of Matthew’s shirt that day. With each banishment, with each letter that was delivered to you stating you were labeled Rogue, with each cold movement against his own kind, Matthew further cemented them in their hate for him and his firm rule.

There were two above all that loathed that tyrant. Two werewolves who had skills in battle and battle strategy that rivaled any military strategists for any leader of any country of any species. They are not only brothers in arms but by blood. More closely bonded than any sibling that anyone has ever seen. They are known together as The Wicked Truth. Even separately they have taken the names Wicked and Truth. They never cared for any mastery of an alpha; they loved to be free and to be their own masters. Matthew hated that they were the one thing he longed to have under his controlling thumb but could never possess. They always eluded his grasp, as they were the masters of trickery and war. Even though they were Rogue, the one thing Matthew hated above all else, he had to have them because he feared them. “The enemy of my enemy is my friend,” kind of thing going through his mind. But The Wicked Truth hated the man, not only for what he stood for as an alpha, but also because they saw what he had done to their fellow werewolves.

The Wicked Truth laid a trap for Matthew. The trap so complex that no one but Wicked and Truth could detect its existence let alone come to conclusion about its origins. The somehow worked it that every time Matthew shifted he received a small dose of silver nitrate, or liquid silver, right into his blood stream. Wicked and Truth went on a rampage causing trouble, raising enough hell over a couple of weeks that forced Matthew to shift and thus meet a slow, painful death by silver poisoning.

Without the immediate looming of Matthew over their heads the Rogue are still wounded at heart. They are not wanted by any pack even if they so desired of it. The Rogue group together in small bands, usually no more than five or six. In those small groups they wreak havoc down upon the packs as well as the humans and hunters. Old wounds refusing to heal feed their fire of hate against them all. No matter how many deaths there are they won't be enough to heal what has been done to them thus far.

[/b] Rogue werewolves that go by the names Wicked and Truth killed the Alpha of the Kinbok pack with trickery and cleverness, leaving that pack in dismembered confusion. The Rogue werewolves are in an uproar in celebration of the tyrant Alpha's death. They celebrate by causing even more trouble for the packs as well as the humans and hunters. Their numbers multiply, but divided they are not as strong as the packs.[/ul]
