The Ivory Claws, called Tzuumfin in the First Tongue, are the devotees of Silver Wolf and are obsessed with purity of lineage. They believe that the heritage of Father Wolf lies in the blood, and from that they might build a new Pangaea. Through immaculate records of descent and inheritance, the Ivory Claws track the ebb and flow of all manner of supernatural taint through the human population, and cull and prune where they see fit. Those who do not honor their lineage are the sacred prey of the tribe — which, by most Ivory Claw definitions, includes all of the Forsaken.
To hunt the Ivory Claws is to hunt a wealthy foe that wields humanity as a weapon, drawing on human resources and organizations to fight the Forsaken by proxy. The tribe aggressively hunts for nuzusul and Wolf-Blooded in Forsaken territory, tearing such prizes away from the grasp of the Urdaga. Worse, Silver Wolf’s followers are masters of pain and blood, using elaborate rituals to tap into the full potential of the Great Wolf’s inheritance. Some claim that the Ivory Claws practice cannibalism like Hosts, consuming the Essence of other Uratha for power. Their tapestry of bloodlines aims to cultivate a new, superior Uratha species through breeding a messianic figure.
