A man once came up with a question to defy religious beliefs, "Which came first, the chicken or the egg?" To a Corax there is no debate, their beliefs all begin with an egg. The Corax are like no other shifter, they have no kin per se, and any human in the world has the possibility of being one if at their birth one of the rare eggs is dedicated to their soul. Messengers of Gaia, ancestors to Thought and Memory they warn the nations of Fera and others to the end times. See a man on the city streets, a bum holding a sign telling you the world is ending, listen, but also look closer and you may find one of my kind in that look of sadness. Others like myself are more active in the world and belong to the Hermetic Order Of Swift Light, a group dedicated to hunting down every secret and bit of knowledge the world has to offer to stall or even save the world from chaos and armageddon.
History is a great deal closer to poetry than is generally realised: in truth, I think, it is in essence the same.

Do not applaud me. It is not I who speaks to you, but history which speaks through my mouth.

The Others
|
|
|
The other fera are all different in each regard and can be hard to deal with if the rage flows within them.
|
|
The fae and their secrets in the Dreaming, and holding their courts for good or evil, each must be dealt with on their own and for the most part the king of tricksters.
|
|
As much as I'm the messenger these are who need the message, scouting sure, but let the fuzzballs fight the good fight, while I get the heck out of the way.
|
|
Blood suckers, they can be useful if sent out to do something, many different kinds and each needs to be dealt with separately more often then not on their terms and territory.
|
|
Mages are seekers of knowledge and are a rare breed, still human and yet they hold a vast amount of potential if they can get to a ripe old age..
|
|
The wraith are an enigma as they haunt a land both barren and dangerous as much as they are a part of the mortal realm, each has their own agenda and all are dangerous to have dealings with.
|
|
What can I say about them, Fall, Fuck, get hit by a truck? They were cast down for a reason but those reasons can be very consfusing.
|
|
Nothing more tan a vile creation to serve their Master for that little bit of blood to keep them stronger or faster than the humans they were.
|
|
We don't have them, but one can see the benefit of them as support for the other Fera.
|
|
The vile of the vile and something to be avoided at all times.
|
|
More of a use in identifying those of the fae if they have no other skills other than being drawn to them and jump into the sheets.
|
|
Handy as messengers and sources of information.
|
|
Most mortals are into themsleves and not much help in seeking out knowledge, truth and secrets, and they are squishier than I am too.

- Information Broker: Anyone with any renown in Wisdom higher than 2 will have heard of the Corax coming to town and the start of a local branch of the Hermetic Order Of Swift Light opening up for any seeking information, a truth taker or as a consultant for many things involving crime and disorder going on in the area.
- Streetwise Characters: Seems there is someone moving around the streets looking for those that can join his network of informants and couriers and is paying well for all of it, in money or in trade!
- Gaian Shifters: Any and all of the Fera fighting for Gaia would slowly be hearing of a Hermetic Order Of Swift Light Corax setting p shop in town and for that matter any Corax should be able to find him even easier.
