Лугрим

Лугрим was the goddess of the moon and primordial hunt to the garou. She came from another world of silver and silence, and left it through a doorway that opened when a grieving god wandered into it. Her transformation into the goddess of the hunt completely altered her original form. She is said to also have a history with Bandos, where the god of war wanted revenge against her and the garou.

Rise to power

When she discovered the garou on their homeworld of Антумнос, she was initially treated as prey. However, she demonstrated her divine nature by defeating her hunters. Following this, she challenged all the reigning kings of the garou clans in the capital city of Маграун and defeated them in a single battle, ultimately claiming the title of High Queen. No later challenger unseated her for centuries afterwards. Лунный Гару tradition names the defeated party as the elders of the tribes rather than the clan kings. She later brought the garou from Antumnos to Gielinor, settling somewhere in the mainland before moving to Эшенфолл.

Reign and the Human-Garou War

Under Lougrim's leadership, the garou were focused and refined into exceptional hunters. She retained the moon as her symbol, a reminder of her origins. Her high priests crafted the king's tokens hundreds of years ago. She granted weapons to champions she favoured, among them Король Ралух, who received Черепокол. Her followers knew her as the Huntress in moonlight. She granted the first garou blacksmiths the templates for their weapons, teaching them the shape of the blade and the balance of the hilt. She rejected the use of poison by hunters on the grounds that it degraded the hunt, permitting it only to spellcasters. Garou druids of her era were restrained by ritual observance and directed towards approved quarry. She also set tasks for individual followers, appearing to the druid Эшиен in a vision and directing her into the swamps to fight a demon. Moon Garou tradition holds instead that she taught the garou to hunt without blade or bow on Antumnos, and to take no more than they needed.

Before a peace was agreed between the garou and the human settlers, garou hunting parties treated travellers as legitimate quarry.

During the Война людей и Гару, she and the garou conflicted with the humans, and eventually the goblins, the latter arriving with their god of war Бандос. Bandos entered the conflict to settle a grievance of his own, which the human clergy attributed to her. By her own account the grievance was older and broader than that, a slight inflicted by the garou aeons earlier on a world other than Gielinor. What the slight was goes unrecorded. The terms agreed between the Saradominist priests and the emissaries of Bandos traded the mines of Гхорнфелл to the humans in exchange for her head. Bandos brought his followers with him for that campaign, and they broke through the garou lines with little resistance. To the priests of Сарадомин she was an impostor, and the extermination of her followers was framed as an act of purification.

As her followers were being pushed back and cornered, particularly after humans began using iron weapons against them, she mourned for her lost children. She found the dragonkin and allied with them, binding herself to the service of the Кабал. This alliance allowed them to release dragons onto the army, turning the tide of battle. She rode a dragon into the assault, flanked by two dragonkin. This reinforcement led to their victory when Bandos fought Велгар and was defeated due to his arrogance. After the war god's retreat, Lougrim would cease the attack on the humans, finding a sort of peace between them and the garou. She also assisted with the dragonkin experimentation, which resulted in the creation of Кулдра, using her blood. Her blood was treated by the dragonkin as a material resource, valued for the vitality it carried, and quantities of it were sealed in urns and hidden in separate locations across Ashenfall. Лакрусса intended to refine that power and merge it with a dragon in pursuit of a viable dragonkin host.

Defeat and legacy

Sometime after the war against the humans and goblins, Lougrim was killed by Kuldra, who started a rebellion against the dragonkin, freeing the dragons from their chains. Her death divided the garou. The clans that accepted Kuldra's victory remained in Ghornfell, while those that refused abandoned their homes and travelled east, later becoming the Moon Garou of the Сумрачные пески. There are two documented stories on what happened. One from the garou of Ghornfell that states that Kuldra has challenged Lougrim, and won in fair combat. The other being considered the "truth" from the Moon Garou of the Umbral Sands, that had written no challenge was issued, Kuldra had ambushed and devoured Lougrim while she was drained from shielding villages against dragonfire. From unknown reason, this was discarded as forbidden knowledge, with no knowledge to why.

Despite her death, Lougrim's influence persists. Her priests continue to bear her moon symbol on their staves and altars, even while accepting Kuldra as their High Queen. The rites of challenge and kingship she presided over are still observed by garou who no longer worship her. Shrines dedicated to her remain in Ashenfall, where rituals of purification are still performed. There are also legends of a silver dire wolf among some of the garou, believing it to be the reincarnated goddess, slowly rebuilding her power before rechallenging Kuldra.

Her people lived lives of quiet contemplation, each moment spent wondering about the next. They were passive, soft spoken and sedentary, which drove Lougrim wild.
