Galliard

The Gibbous Moon, The Moon Dancer

The Galliard sings the soul of the Garou to the near-full  moon, howling of their joys and sorrows, their triumphs and losses. She is the voice of the People, calling them to battle and inspiring them to greatness in life and in death. She is also a keeper of traditions, carrying the lore of tribes all the way back to the beginning.

A Galliard can rouse the pack from self-pity and suffering when their claws are needed for battle. She can speak caution to a Ragabash, draw a Theurge from his reverie, soften the heart of a Philodox, and soothe the anger of an Ahroun. The Galliard’s art and performance may take many forms — she might be a dancer, a storyteller, a  musician or a bit of everything rolled into one. She may even be a leader in times of war. When the battle is done, hers is the voice first raised to praise the sacrifices made by the fallen, and the triumphs of those who still live to fight again.
