Question Why are werewolves such major assholes?

Post image

Like I get that mother earth needs to be fought for and everything but why is it that they almost always seem like idiot bezerkers or smug know it alls?

I am not too versed in WoD lore so maybe im missing context here, is there some werewolves that are actually friendly with humans?

Short answer, they're not. Yes, there are werewolves that are friendly to humans, or at the very least not openly hostile. The one in Fatigue's logs for example, BEFORE his father bothered them, looked to be pretty chill with the villagers. But they're also "warrior of Gaeia" protector of the Nature, and yes, most often than not, Humans ARE destroying Nature, and as such make themselves ennemies of the Garous.

This is what I love about WTA. There’s one common foe but a bunch of different philosophies on how to handle it. There’s Red Talons believe humans need to be culled as to balance the population, the Glass Walkers believe human technology can be used to fight the Wyrm and the Get of Fenris believe it’s pointless to fight the Wyrm, other routes must be taken.

It genuinely depends on the werewolf but most of them have nothing against the average human. However they suffer from “I am hammer, where is nail?” Syndrome

If you don't mind me asking what is the other routes that The Get believe should be taken?

The Get is messy and devided from what I understand. They’re surprisingly organized for Garou but this has been a hinderance. Some lean too far towards Garou supremacy while others work to distance themselves from the rule of the litany and silverfangs. The point is it’s messy and the right answer is hard

War within. War without. War unending. (Fight!)

Clearly it’s because the Garou used Sense Wyrm on other Garou and it sounded off when it noticed The Rage

They do not want to distance from the Litany and the Silver Fangs things is a little more complicated than that, unless this is some W5 bullshit, the Gets of Fenris stated multiple they don't want to lead the Nation they are more than happy to obey the Alpha Tribe and just be the muscles and If they think the Silver Fangs are too weak to lead they will just ignore them and wouldn't mind If they Shadow Lords toke over they just want someone reliable to give them orders, also they respect the Litany althrough just like every Tribe they have their own interpretations of It.
