Ongoing Projects: Playing with kids and tagging along with his packmates. 

Circle and Influence:Not much. but he does have good friends.

House: If he has the opportunity, he will build a treehouse in the local park. Since he spends a lot of his time in Lupus form he doesn't need a lot of amenities.

Story:

Monty's story is actually pretty tragic if you hear it from anyone else but him. He was born into a silver fang lineage known for fierce warriors and stern philodoxes but monty was born under a new moon and even though his kinfolk parents should have known better they tried to raise him to an impossible standard of excellence that is totally unsuited to a young ragabash. his father pushed him as hard as he could as long he could and when monty did go through his first change it was one of the few causes for celebration in his home.

Things however rapidly went downhill from there. Ragabashes are certainly not unheard of among the silver fangs but even they are held at arm's length especially if they have no use for the uptight moral rectitude of the Fangs. Allthough beloved by his packmates. he dealt with pressure from his family and pressure to conform from the fangs.

It did not help matters that Jacob Morningkill took a near-instant dislike to him. never mind that he aquitted himself well as a warrior of Gaia, as a silver Fang he just would never measure up.

This probably would have gone on indefinitely except that Jacob Morningkill decided to humiliate him for some forgotten joke at probably the lowest point in his life. Monty's mother had passed away 2 day before... It is said that after the king had stripped him off some of his temporary renown for foolish acts that the finally enraged Ragabash lit into Jacob Morningkill with a dazzling and withering display of insult,invective and other derrogatory comment culminating in a display of the full moon...Monty's full moon to be exact.

Monty was immediately beaten and exiled. and he would have succumbed to harano if not for his packmates.Monty started a new life in a place where he is more likely to be appreciated.He came to the local Sept and asked to become a member of that caern. he also asked that his membership be kept secret from the Silver Fangs. he couldn't stand their anger or their pity.(depending on which story they had heard.) and since the sept didn't want any trouble with the Silver Fangs they agreed.

Monty is one of the most free spirited Silver Fang/Bone Gnawers you'll ever want to meet. He has lots of friends among the Glass Walkers and Bone Gnawers and well liked by them. His favorite thing to do is assume Lupus form and go frolic in the local park. he keeps a slightly chewed frisbee for just this purpose. he is also a crafty chess player and enjoy a good game. but his favorite things are playing with kids of all sorts.

You see, Monty is a long standing member of Heaven and has found that children will often tell things to a friendly stray dog that they would never tell to a stranger. Monty has a fierce side and this is one of the few things that brings it out.

Monty has loosely attached himself to a group of older Bone Gnawers(he considers himself one, genetics be damned) called the Old Ramblers. and has proven himself to be a fierce warrior when he needs to be, a good friend whenever possible and an unremitting joker in the face of unremitting pressure or evil.

Story uses:

Dumb Dog: If you want to have people get involved with the 7th generation storyline and get in touch with Heaven, then Monty might be a natural in. He loves kids and is willing to help them...and is usually willing to rope others into doing so. His packmates are his first choice of course but anybody will do.

Hunted Dog: There is going to come a day when the Silver Fangs who still have an axe to grind are going to find Monty. When that happens it's going to get ugly...guess who gets caught in the middle?

Changeling Connection: Monty has a childlike quality even in his late 50's. it's a quality that Kithain are attracted to and as such. If you're players are Kithain, he might be the one Garou they could count on to help them.
