There's a whisper of a rumor, among certain in-the-know bums in Seattle, that in the old Underground lives a monster - a huge, snarling, misshapen man-dog of a thing. They say that if you leave fresh food for it, you can travel through the oldest parts of the city unmolested. Some even say it comes up from the underground during the full moon, to winnow the wicked from the greater downtown area!
The Garou of Seattle have a different story. They say a pathetic, starving metis lives down there, who can barely get enough food for himself. The Bone Gnawers he associates with call him Ghandi. Everyone else just stays away. Some whisper that he resembles more of a hyena than a wolf, and that he's tainted by the Wyrm.
Metis Deformity: Emaciated. Either through some spiritual curse or a malformed metabolism, Underdog can only gain the barest sustenance from his food. As a result, he looks skeletal and odd, and is prone to uncontrolled fits of shaking. He adds one to the difficulty of most social interactions, and unless he's eaten well (ie can't use the Cooking gift to get off free) quite recently (within the last half-hour), he adds one to the difficulty of all Stamina rolls. Gabe, please approve or disapprove of this!
