Background:
THE SHUNKAHA SAPA
----------------------------------------------
Koda was born into the Blackfoot Sioux tribe in South Dakota. Of this tribe, there is a sub-tribe or Clan of Garou that has sworn to protect their human and kinfolk brethren. They are called the Shunkaha Sapa, Black Wolf. While the Siha Sapa (blackfoot) tribe has a general feeling that the Shunkaha Sapa is a special group, one that requires a particular spirit to enter, they truly have no idea what that spirit is or means. The Shaman of the Shunkaha Sapa, Koda's father Odakota Fisher, like all the Shamans before him, have the task of choosing their people. Every season there is a rite in which he tests the Siha Sapa to be sure they are not homid Garou. If they are, these are taken into the Shunkaha Sapa.
THE FISHER FAMILY
--------------------------------
Koda and his siblings, being chlidren of the Shaman, were automatically a part of the Shunkaha Sapa, because they would (whether Garou or not) be a part of the Garou world whether they liked it or not. But Koda was the only child born with the forest green eyes of his father. And this, according to the Fisher line, is a sign of the child born to be a Shaman of the tribe. So long as this child is Garou, they can be trained to replace their parent. Koda was trained as a Shaman his whole life, even though he fought it most of the way. He wanted to be a fighter, and a fighter he was. He trained with his older brothers, of which there were 6. He also had three sisters. Koda was the seventh son...of a seventh son. This is a very rare thing indeed. But it wasn't until Koda met the Broussards that things really changed. Koda's sister Melani, who was kinfolk, married Pierre Broussard, the eldest of the Broussard 'boys'. The families came together in South Dakota for the union. At first, Koda and Henri, who were the same age, HATED each other. They didn't get along at all. They'd even gotten physical a few times in the first week the families were there planning the union. But in the third week, things changed. Koda had some trouble with some local boys in the nearby town, and Henri saw it all. He came to the rescue, helping Koda in the fight. And from that point, he and Henri were tight. And just got tighter. A month after the union, long after the families parted, Koda and Henri ran away from home at the age of 16 and were intent upon seeing the world. They joined the underground fighting fighting circuits around the country and made themselves wealthy from the prize money. They didn't always stay together, but no matter where they were, they were brothers. They even became blood brothers through a rite.
HAIR OF THE DOG
------------------------------
When Henri got into trouble with Oncle Gerard, he called Koda in to help. Koda was in Japan fighting at the time, but dropped everything to aid his brother. He helped him to build the Hair of the Dog compound, and even stayed to be his Beta. Through everything, they were brothers. When Henri died, though Koda was not conscious, he was devastated. He drew up into himself because of a guilt that he was unable to help guide Henri's spirit. This caused Koda to finish his Shamanic training, though he was told during a spirit walk that he would never be the Shaman of his tribe. He had a different path. After traveling around the world again, reuniting with Renee (Rook), Koda reunited with Etienne and with the help of many, they rebuilt the Hair of the Dog compound. He was asked to be Alpha, and the rest is history.
What brings your character to the Compound/Hair of the Dog/Manchac, LA?
Koda came back to help rebuild HOTD and bring the love of his life (Rook) back to a place they both cherished deeply.
