Introduction

By day, he makes coffee. He's friendly, handsome, and there's something a little dangerous about him: this turns some people on, this pisses some people off. He makes friends. He makes not-friends. Yet, his life as a human is shallow and plain, because he's never really understood what it is to be human. He tries, though.

But he is not one: he is a werespider, an Ananasi. He is a predator, a hunter, a warrior in the name of his Great Uncle the Wyld.

Here, in Detroit, he is an oddity: in a land so deeply in the grips of the Weaver's webs that it is suffocating, a spider comes... not to lay more webs, but to undo them? To bring change? Impossible: everyone knows the werespiders are servants of the Corrupter.

Or perhaps not all things that look alike are the same.

Stereotypes
  • Garou: They helped us save the Mother from the Corrupter, and then they went insane -- are they sane even now? Who doesn't remember the War of Rage? They still think of us as Wyrm-tainted, despite the fact that Spider was a child of Grandmother Weaver. They don't understand us: that's good, because no one should understand us. But its useful if people would get around to misunderstanding us a little less, you know? Less is more.
  • Corax: They think themselves wise, but they are not. They think themselves hunter, but they are not. We are what they think they are: we will drink of their blood and bury their bones deep and forget them forever.
  • Changelings: What? Shiny. Let me see!
  • Mages: What? Shiny! Let me see!
  • Vampires: These things are confused with us too much; we both hunt, we both drink blood, but it is not the same. We stand upon the thread of silk and listen to its song as it vibrates when touched: we are the balance, the strife, the question. Vampires consume and destroy without creation: they are without balance, without symmetry. They are the children of the Mad One, Corruption upon Corruption: madness does not exist in our Mother's world.

RP Hooks

Mundane

  • Bradin's mundane life is... thin. Very thin. He has a drivers license that would fool an average bouncer, and a car that's more lived in then most houses, but there's no paper attached to either, and no life before his arrival. If anyone really pays attention, his life is so thin it doesn't pass even a simple inspection as anything real. Yet what does that mean?
  • He's poor, and yet, he shows up almost anywhere there is no fee for entry-- and even then, sometimes he gets in, and is just there. There's literally nowhere he might not be, no matter how strange. Spiders are everywhere.
  • He's curious, he's curious about everything: all the things. Name a thing, he's curious about it, and will approach you.

Supernatural

  • Bradin is an Ananasi, calling himself Steps Among Dew.
  • He is Kar, a Warrior of the Wyld, fighting against the insanity of both the Weaver and the Wyrm.
  • He knows much that is mystical, and when he communes with his Mother-Queen, he knows even more. What he doesn't know, he's curious about. Its a shiny thing to be noticed.
  • He is of the Arachnid breed, which means he began his life non-human: he has a great curiosity for non-human thought and for those things impersonating humanity, but with other origins. Especially among the animal breeds of the Ovid -- the other shapechangers.

Disclaimer
This is all VERY OOC. The RP Hooks and life details are provided to suggest things that we can use to find reasons and interesting intersections to RP within. You can't just know anything without appropriate rolls.

That said, I do recognize that in general, the Ananasi are not looked upon kindly: in Detroit, he's working against an avalanche that'd like to fall upon him. But please don't assume things.
