![]() ![]() Most do not enjoy the close ties to the Umbra as the werewolves do, and some hold that Erebus was only created after the War of Rage, when the Werewolves proved their hubris. It is unknown if other Fera have a similar realm for penance. They could be the first uncorrupted White Howlers, or they could be born anew in Gaia’s eyes, ready to choose a new tribe for themselves. So far, it is unknown what would happen if one of these Garou would be fully cleansed. There are stories of Black Spiral Dancers that are trapped in the silver lake, slowly being purged from the Wyrm’s clutches. She grants the redeemed werewolf the Rite of the Silver Forge and guides him to the Silver Gate, which will transport her anywhere she wishes.Įrebus seems to be Garou-exclusive, with members of every tribe of the Nation being present among the souls in purgatory. Here they work to seek out the sources of guilt, force the Garou to confront each and acknowledge her failure, and then purge her of sin.Ī purified Garou is brought before Charyss, who evaluates her and tells her that the great secret of Erebus is that the realm itself cannot force repentance and that the only way to purification is the Garou herself. The Brood works in pairs to step through the mirrors and into each sufferer’s mind. ![]() The laws of Erebus give access to a werewolf’s body, mind and soul while she is submerged in the silver waters, and these mirrors are the gateways. Each Garou that is delivered into the rivers has a mystical link with the silver mirrors that line their walls. Hidden within Charyss’ fortress are the halls of the Harrowers and Castigators. Members of the Brood use rafts to cross the lake to reach the fortress of the Incarna Charyss, the mistress of the Realm. ![]() Within the lake other Garou thrash about in agony, sentenced to suffer in the liquid metal until their spirits are cleansed of taint and sin. Numerous tunnels lay beneath, each carrying a river of silver with it that ultimately spill out to a dizzyingly high waterfall that tumbles into a vast lake at the nadir of the realm. The vista is only broken by the large pools and streams of molten silver that dot the landscape. Garou that step from the path risk falling into the rivers.Įrebus is a vast plain of jagged black rock that stretches almost to the horizon. Visitors are usually escorted by members of the Brood along a path made of silver. The Realm can be easily accessed through the Silver Path, a vast Moon Bridge that leads directly to the gate of the realm that is guarded by Cerberus. The guards within Erebus are called The Brood and appear to be huge, hairless Crinos Garou with burning red eyes and armed with huge silver spears that burn with fire. Each of its heads reflects an aspect of the Triat. The gates of Erebus are guarded by Cerberus, a great three-headed monster hound. There is virtually no chance that an inmate will escape before his time is up. Either the werewolf will journey to Erebus to be cleansed, or will be dragged there by other werewolves.Įrebus is well defended, so the chances of breaking someone out of this place are slim. Werewolves end up in Erebus when they have become too tainted by one of the members of the Triat, most often the Wyrm. Erebus is filled with rivers of molten silver which both burn and heal at the same time, extending the torment of the inmates for months, years, possibly even centuries. Often compared to Garou “hell,” Erebus is actually a place of spiritual cleansing. Occupants: Damned souls and Charyss, mistress of the realm. ![]()
