Fenrispunk is a word for a lot of things. Dialoguing and identifying with Fenrir, with werewolf imagery too, othered from society, reclaiming the 'monstrous'. Who gets to decide your worth, how to live your life, whether you're loveable? Who gets to write the laws and control the narrative? Who gets to decide your humanity? It's nothing new that queer and other marginalized people turn to the outcasts and monsters in stories, side with the 'underdog' and the villain(ized) - familiar with the traits assigned to us by those who hate our existence. Queer, transformative, animistic, being in touch with who you are without shame. It's about body autonomy, about breaking free from oppression. Eco & climate activistic against those who seek to chain, dominate and destroy the wild. Also against moralizing nordic stories into good and evil, and countering the focus on the Aesir (as the good and worshippable heroes) a bit. :P

The irony of Tyr, the god of justice being the one to help chain Fenris is something that I think about a lot but can barely figure out how to put it into words.
So i'm gonna try and put it into words and hope people will understand.
Because what happened wasn't really justice was it? Fenris hadn't really done anything yet. His worst crime was being a son of Loki and pride.
Fenris was chained for something that he will do in the future. Something that hadn't happened yet so Fenris was innocent.

THE WEREWOLF QUESTION
Hi guys as y’all can see I’m a huge fan of the world of darkness (specifically the old world of darkness) and as I delve deeper and deeper into my 20 gigabytes of WOD PDFs I notice more and more outdated and outright offensive things that just scream “I was made in the 90s and parachute wrote my ass off”
Parachute writing is a bitch (which is why you always consult others that are more well educated in the culture than you)
But that is besides the point, my first question regards a very controversial topic of Werewolf The Apocalypse, and that is the Uktena and the W*ndigo. (Primarily the latter as I want to focus on the name, from now on I will refer to this tribe as “Younger Brother”).
At first I was thinking that these names were to subvert the expectations, like the Get of Fenris of course referencing to Fenrir, a top notch dickhead in Norse mythos, (which is a lot considering most gods barring a couple are top notch dickheads… looking at you Odin.). But instead they are these strange protectors of the earth, while culturally they are known as the killer of odin, in reality they are the rivals of the evil odin (whom is possibly a vampire) that killed their tribe members, whilst also being a tribe that is adamant in preventing the apocalypse and fighting jormungandr (the wyrm) as much as they can.
(Small rant as I quickly educate myself why the fuck do they have a sub-tribe called the glorious fist of Wotan?!?!? DONT THEY HATE ODIN? ISNT WOTAN JUST THE DISAMBIGUATION OF THE WORD ODIN THAT WAS USED IN WAGNERS RING??? ? Ok. Yeah I’m gonna smash a table into pieces and eat the wood chips)
But now that I educate myself on the Younger Brother tribe in the WOD wiki, there doesn’t seem to be any subversion of expectations, its just a name some guy plastered on really quickly and it just ended up sticking because others thought it was cool. And if I’m being genuinely honest, a tribe of world protecting werewolves should not be named after such a thing.
There have been a good couple of posts I’ve seen that refer to this Younger Brother tribe and it’s controversy, but I have never seen one that offered a proper name for this misnamed Garou tribe. What do you all think? I’ve been planning on utilizing Garou into my world because I fucking love werewolves and I would love feedback on how to properly name this Garou tribe in a way that respects indigenous culture.
I feel like I will have a thread of posts like this because I want to depict W:TA 2e in a more respectful light (removing all the controversial and outright stupid gunk) whilst also helping all 5 of my mutuals depict them as well :). If you have gotten this far to read my crazy rambling, thank you so much I love u.

Quote
Many of the myths are concerned with the conception of a journey to the Other World, through the cold and darkness that acted as a barrier. The rich symbolism of roads and bridges, dark holes and caves leading to the underworld, the open burial mound, the journey through the air in bird form, all this emphasizes the belief in a passage between the worlds both for men and other beings…The underworld, either below the earth or the waves, is the abode of darkness and death, threatening always to destroy the ordered world of light and overrun the inhabited earth. Yet at the same time it is the place from which new life comes, and to which the gods may look for their brides. We are reminded from time to time in the myths that the seemingly dead earth sends up shoots in spring, that wisdom may come from the sea depths, and that the characteristics of dead men appear again in m their children's children. Finally in this picture of gods and monsters, we find the idea of the continual re-enactment, l'éternel retour, as Mircea Eliade calls it. The gods themselves were doomed to fall before the powers of darkness, and heaven and earth to pass away. But re birth must follow destruction, and a newly cleansed earth and heaven emerge from the sea and the flames. The sons of the gods and the survivors of mankind would again people earth and heaven, new dwellings arise in Asgard, and green fields once more yield their harvest on middle earth.

Last year I began Drawing the Norse gods as I was told they looked as a child! I drew Thor with red hair and a small hammer, i drew Loki as a Androgonous character with the ability to change gender at will, i drew Odin as the old mand, who Gandalf is based on, and freya as a beautyful catlady.

And here we have the group shot! With the fenris wolf behind them! I really love how it turned out!

I ask You
Is this how you feel Having watch the world turned, The Worlds burned In vision tortured Without distortion? Is this how you feel, this deep-seated pain like a knife when you see the cycles ’round again? Is this how you feel As grief heaps up And all that lies before and behind, your son? Is this how you feel That your stand still must be made, Before the mouth? Is this how you feel Melancholic…

BANDBRJOTR : HROÐVITNIR : VANAGANDR
In the Eddas, Fenrir is a monster, a violent beast that breaks free at Ragnarök and kills Odin. An enemy, clearly. But stories can be interpreted and re-invented in many ways, as we see for example in modern media, books, videogames, etc. In Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, for example, Odin is haunted by the vision of a wolf being his downfall, and thus bans all wolves in Valhalla. When Loki brings his son Fenrir into the realm, he has to hide him from Odin and the others. Once discovered, Odin tries to kill the wolf without success, and later tricks him into being bound, thus setting in motion the very pieces that will lead to his downfall. As a queer person, I empathize not only with shapechanger and weirdo Loki, who is never fully accepted, but also with his offspring – monsters outcast from society, othered, vilified. The fear of what you don’t understand. However, as much as they tried to bind Fenrir, to keep him down and quiet, in the end he broke his chains. In my eyes, the story of Fenrir can be interpreted as one of oppression and freedom, and of unapologetically being who you are.

The fact that the flowers that surround Fenris' island burn evil is a thing that refuses to leave my mind.
BECAUSE BY WHOS DEFINITION OF EVIL? ODIN'S? THE AESIR?
(that seems a very bad idea, considering their moral compass is basically: We=good Loki=bad)
DOES THE FLOWERS DECIDE WHAT IS EVIL? WHY ARE THE FLOWERS SENTIENT ENOUGH TO HAVE A MORAL COMPASS?
I am thinking way to much into this but X/Odin should have been at least slightly burned. His ass ain't good, not with Narvi and Vali (Look i'll let the other three Loki kids being mistreated slide cus Ragnarök. But Narvi and Vali dont have a place in Ragnarök and are also humanoid. So there is litterally no excuse for what happened to them) and Fenris probably only got evil after being betrayed and chained up.

okay i hardly ever vibe with filling in the gaps on underwritten characters but something my brain randomly threw at me recently is just. "hey what if hela had fenris because she caught and tamed a wolf cub as a kid. because she was lonely and weaponised and she could only find companionship by weaponising others" and now i'm like. oh my god she was lonely. and. and. oh god. odin made sure his next heir WASN'T lonely. but he never stopped weaponising them
