Bone Gnawers Only |
|
Contained within skid row, Stained Concrete is housed within the burnt out shell of what used to be a four story library, along with the rubble and desecrated skeletons of surrounding abandoned buildings that comprise the rest of the block. Virtually unknown outside of the Bone Gnawer tribe (and even within it) the Blackened Concrete Sept is a well guarded secret.
Type: Sacrifice
Level: 1
Gauntlet: 4
Totem: The People
Tribal structure: Strictly Bone Gnawer
The Stained Concrete Caern came to be fairly recently, as the direct result of the acts of a few selfless Garou and their kin during the L.A. Riots in 1992. In a time of violence, looting, and murder that followed the Rodney king trial, where the city was a flash bang of anger, hatred, and horror, a Septless group of Bone Gnawers decided to stand up and protect a block of Skid Row that they called home.
Drawn out and fed by the pain, horror, aggression, and mourning, Banes became stronger, as did the Black Spiral Dancers that frequented the area. Leeches fed during the six nights of chaos, yet despite the odds, the pack stood firm, intent on protecting the less fortunate residents of the area, kin or human it made no difference.
The pack lost a third of it’s number by the second night, and nearly half by the fifth, and on the sixth only two of the original pack still stood. When an accord was finally reached, and the streets once again became relatively safe… the leader of the remaining gnawer pack, now known as Leon “Last Man Standing” Morgan was led to a block of burned out husks, by a withered old black man in a priest’s collar. None know of the deal that was struck on the backs of so many fallen, but out of the pack’s sacrifice, a Caern was born.
Today, the Caern looks much the same as it did when it was first founded, broken, discarded, and skeletal. Though some of the block has been rebuilt the properties immediately next to the library structure remain deserted and empty.
The Caern’s heart can be found in the basement of the old library building, in what use to be the children’s reading area. The residents of Skid Row have learned to avoid the building and many of the local urban legends have successfully kept away prying eyes.
