Editing Glass Walkers

The Glass Walkers are one of the 13(-ish) remaining Garou tribes in [[Werewolf: The Apocalypse]]. They are the archetypical city-werewolves to the point other Garou accuse them of being "more human than wolf" or outright Weaver-tainted. While most Garou are disgusted by the "sacabs" they call human cities, Glass Walkes thrive in them, embracing human culture and technology, incorporating it into their rites and gifts, and using it to their own benefit and the benefit of Gaia (as they see it of course). They are the richest tribe and often take the job of financing nation-wide projects, so even their harshest critics could not deny Garou nation would fucked without Glass Walkers and their resources.

Glass Walkers are mostly known for three things: money, technology and guns. Everything that needs good financing needs a Glass Walker behind it. You need someone to hack security or delete footage of you breaking the Veil? Glass Walkers. Want gunslinger that could shoot a klaive out of Black Spiral Dancer's hand from 500 feet away? You go Glass Walkers. Want someone who knows two shits about surviivng in forest - you DON'T go to Glass Walkers. They're hilariously useless outside cities and useless in Garou politics, too involved in human affairs to pay attention to  games Silver Fangs and Shadowl Lords play.

The tribe is the most Homid-heavy in all Garou nation, with Lupuses so rare and treasured most end up growing spoiled rotten due to constant care. They're also one of the most lenient tribes to Metis, second only to Children of Gaia, and as Lupus are so rare, their Metis tend to dominate positions that require high Gnosis. Being Glass Walker kinfolk sucks though, not because they abuse them or something, but because Walkers are so good at dealing with human stuff their Kinfolk end up feeling kind of useless for all but making babies, while in most other tribes they're tribe's providers and invaluable buffer between humanity and Garou nation. Being Walker wolf kinfolk is it's own can of worms, as many walker Septs prefer to keep their wolf-kin in well protected zoos or parks - not exactly ther ideal conditions for a wolf. Sometimes other Garou try to "liberate" them from "chains of Weaver", but Glass Walkers anren't messing with the security of their treasured wolf-kin and often send trespassers back to their caerns in series of small boxes.

For someone so often accused of being tainted by Waver the tribe is extremely dynamic, changinf with time and human civilization and even changin tribe's name. They started as "Warders of Men", an were the tribe charged with overseeing human civilization in ancient Mesopotamia, Syria and Israel, and as city-based human civilization spread from there all over the world they followed. During antiquitiy they spread westwards and infiltrated Roman legions, much to the chagrin or vampires (who infiltrated Roman politics and priesthood) and most other European Garou (who got their human kinfolk royally fucked by Roman legions). During Medieval and Renaissance they continued to operate mostly from Italy and co-opted italian scholars, phylospohers and engineers, incorporating their tefchings into tribe's philosophy, changing tribe's name to Tetrasomians (wlthough most other Garou continued to call them Warders). When industrial revolution started tribe's political heart migrated to London (starting a long rivalry with Fianna) and then accross the ocean to Americas where they moved behind more aggressive tribes that conquered Pure caerns from locals and instead established railroads and built new Caerns in big cities other werewolves were avoiding, taking new name - Iron Riders. At the break o XX century one of their camps called Glass Walkers discovered city fathers and mothers - powerful urban spirits - and overtook the whole tribe, to the point it changed name again. Glass Walkers reign wasn't long but everyone kind of aggreed to keep the name because it rocked.

There are currently several major camps in Glass Walkers:
*'''Wise Guys''' - Werewolf mafia. Since tribe traces it's lineage to Italy a lot of their Kin and members are Italian so when Mafia rose to power they get carried in and found out there's a lot of money and power in organized  crime that could be used in the name of Gaia. Founder of the camp worked directly with Al Capone and was one of the most brilliant theurges of his time, resulting in Wise Guys devepoling lots of new rites and Gifts under his leadership. Probably the most "brutal" and "aggressive" (in quotes because they still look like hippies next o Get of Fenris) of Glass Walker camps, it dominated the tribe from 20-es till 50-es, and are currently considered "old-fashioned traditionalist" despite the camp being less than 100 years old (for comparison, "young and energetic" house Wyrmfoe from White Fangs is 500 years old).
*'''Corporate Wolves''' - The camp that replaced Wise Guys when Mafia went out of power, and most Glass Walkers switched to legal business. Think Wolf of Wall street, except more literal. Continues to be the richest most well-connected Garou around and are the go to werewolves to hurt Wyrm corporations where it stings the most - in the stock market.
*'''Random Interrupts''' - Werewolf hackers and IT, and the camp on the rise, dominatin the tribe politics since late 90-es, early 0-es. Expect every hacker cliche in the arsenal and some more.
*'''Cyberdogs''' - a camp of crazy transhumantis who discovered how to make spirit=powered bionics first to patch up combat wounds then to upgrade then to run insane expetiment. Their leadership was certainly corrupted by Weaver, get exposed on then and then massacred by the rest of Glass Walkers, but those who get in just to replace lost limbs or yes with cool ciberfetish prognostics are still around and trying to rebuild camp from scraps left.
*'''Diel Ultimae''' - half mercenary company, half doomsday cult, they are military werewolves who work for the highest bidder and prep for Apocalypse. Except, you know, the real one. They are known for incorporating Kinfolk into their war packs in some kind of combined arms tactics.
