This was written to correct a podcast I could not stand by. The original Werewolf 5th edition came from a perception of a clear bias. I wanted "5th edition".  What we got was "Werewolf the Apocalypse". A reimagined story. Reimagined means to reinterpret imaginatively.

" The Baali are a clan causing much controversy. The question whether they qualify as a clan or just a bloodline (and if so from which clan) is open for discussion. While the Kindred are generally not considered heroes and revel in their dark drives, the Baali are regarded as pure evil. They are accused of consorting with demons, corrupting mortals and kindred alike, and working to bring abou...

"... Hear now the tales of the past. Sing of the ancient times and the bright morning and golden afternoon of our lives. For in the time before the Wyrmcomers, we did not yet fear the coming of the night. Our voices lit the darkness then as we sang of our triumphs and sorrows. My song tonight holds within it the tales of those times, of little brother Wendigo and elder brother Uktena. These t...
