Irraka: the New Moon

When Luna cannot be seen at all, then the Irraka hunt. The Irraka are the scouts and stalkers, the cunning hunters who elude the worst threats only to strike at their vulnerable spots from behind. They ply their wits socially as well, testing the dedication of other Uratha to their packs, their tribes and the Oath of the Moon. The Irraka are forever on the boundary, sometimes stalking the borders of their pack’s territory, sometimes wandering the
boundaries between Uratha and human society. Some Irraka function as ambassadors between werewolves and the rare humans, wolf-blooded or not, who can be considered allies. More often, though, they direct their efforts toward
distracting humans into looking at their own lives and society rather than digging too deeply into matters best left to the Forsaken.

The Irraka is a creature of keen wit and great cleverness, like the fox of ancient fables. The new moon’s path leads through dark places, but also reveals shortcuts; an Irraka who plans an attack will more often assemble a
cunning ambush than an overpowering direct assault. The New Moon’s talent for skullduggery serves a greater purpose — showing his packmates the shadow way. Where the Cahalith inspires with emotion, the Irraka prods them with cunning. By his wiles, they may hit upon the tactic their foes would never expect.
