Nara McKenna
Jun 4th, 2006, 12:48:21 PM
Name: Nara McKenna
Species: Garou (Homid, Galliard - born on the waning moon)
Allegiance: Black Furies, The Moon-Daughters Camp Rank 2
Physical Appearance: Nara stands a petite 5"4' inches and slim. Her long unruly and ratty brown hair coupled with her light complexion hides her beauty. Her chocolate brown eyes are striking. On stage, her attire matches the patrons of the club she is singing at ranging from well-cut suits to leather biker gear. You'll just never catch her in a dress. When off stage, she prefers relaxed clothing like jeans and t-shirts and isn't too far from her coveted purple jacket that is one size too large. She has a tattoo of the tribe on her left upper shoulder and a wicked looking scar from a Black Spiral Dancer on her left side. It didn't heal fully since it was due to silver and powerful magic.
For one so young, most Garou alike hold her in deep respect. Last of a long line of Legendary Garou, Nara is the great great great granddaughter of Eoen, a powerful Black Fury Philodox. She had given birth to a son whom she named Cormac and relinquished him to the Fianna. Mother and Son showed no fear or mercy to any that walked the path of the Wrym ...
Nara is a spitting image of her ancestor Eoen, sharing many traits in human form, but when shifted into Crinos, she is as if Eoen had come back to life (Pure Breed 5)
History: Nara was born in Norfolk, VA on the Navy base. Growing up, she got to play with soldiers, run amuck (to a certain degree) in submarines and aircraft carriers. It was almost a fact that Nara was going to be following her father's footsteps and joining the military when she turned eighteen. Until then, music was her passion. Her mother realized early on that her daughter was a gifted singer and made sure to have Nara spend time with a singing coach, who also introduced her to the guitar.
Her picture perfect life went into shambles the night two female officers broke into her home and kidnapped her. They drugged her and took her to a remote location outside of Norfolk. When she awoke, her hands and legs were bound and when the hood was taken off her face, she was in some basement. She was still too groggy to form a coherent sentence before the change took place. The Black Furies had gotten to her just in time …
Personality: Nara is a private person. Anything about her past is forbidden territory and keeps everyone at a distance. She loves getting into a tussle since many think her incapable because of her size. Her only true passion is her music. She is dedicated to her ideals of how to spread the knowledge of the Garou’s struggles regardless of how close she is to crossing the line of the veil. She is pretty accepting of all walks of life, including Metis’. The only real contention she has, as with all the Black Furies, is with the Get of Fenris. The are the anti-thesis of her tribe and their stone age views are degrading.
Perception: Nara isn’t a typical Black Fury because she isn’t completely against technology. It has its place if use properly but too many have abused that potential. The Weaver isn’t necessarily evil. However, people like Pentex need to be eradicated off the face of Gaia’s blessed earth. Nara feels that physical confrontation is not the only answer. Information needs to be spread to all of Gaia’s chosen in order to combat the Wyrm. Her music is just that. Information to the Garou of what is happening around the rest of the country. If anything of note happens, Nara subtly changes her lyrics to get the message across. Course, that isn’t what angers the Garou. She doesn’t stop there and actually sings about Gaia, the Wyrm and Pentex. Sometimes subtly, sometimes not. It has earned her the derogatory nickname Lestat amongst the intolerant Garou, who quickly find a fist in their face ...
Additional Information: The only people that really know anything about Nara are the Black Furies and they ain’t talking either. Not even her band members know too much about her but they are Fury Kinfolk. With the help of the Black Fury elders, they were able to explain Nara’s misadventures as an indoctrination into adulthood, courtesy of the military. Unfortunately, her desire to join the military ended the moment she realized her potential. Her father was disappointed but was understanding, her mother was proud. Nara is very grateful to have ties with her human family and still visits them when the tour, and Garou life, permits it.

Klaive (Belong to her Great Great Grandfather Cormac McKenna, a Legendary Fianna Galliard) Legend has it that he was out numbered by a pack of Black Spiral Dancers, and all though he could not win, he fought with such courage, Gaia shed a single tear for the fallen Garou. It fell from the heavens and when the drop reached Cormac, his body instantly turned to dust and was carried away by the wind. Gaia did not want her brave defender's body to be defiled.
Cormac was granted to live on through his Klaive. His soul became bound to it so he could watch over his family for all times.
Cormac's Klaive - The 11" blade is crafted in silver. The handle was carved into the body of a Griffin with it's wings expanded out as the rest of the hilt. Gaelic runes were chiseled into the first 2" of the blade on either side that represented strength, power and truth.
The McKenna crest is a griffin set inside the bordure pattern, painted gold, green and blue.
Her band's name is Esoterica (renamed after cutting ties with the Chicago Immortals) with the line up of:
Kevin - Drummer
Ethan - Lead Guitar
Paul - Keyboards/Rhythm Guitar
Vicki - Bass Guitar
