NOTE: These pages are no longer being updated, as we move all of the material over to the website. Please double-check any information you find here against the CISes on the website, which are the most up-to-date.


Please click on any highlighted names for an individual page about the ancestor, containing links to art of them, or to stories in which they appear. Information about tribal ancestors is still under development; while some individual deceased characters (particularly the past chiefs of the tribe) will have character information sheets (CISs) in the club's webbase, many ancestors won't be detailed beyond their names, family relationships, and salient details.

P-javelin2.jpg Javelin - (0302-0410) M, H=black, E=golden. Son of Chief Burn and Sparrow, brother of Foxsly and Red. Took very much after his father: powerful, stern, little or no sense of humor; fierce hunter and tireless in pursuit, but not very creative. Also had his father's fiery, short temper. Considered himself the dominant one of the three siblings and assumed he would succeed his father as chief – thought Red was too submissive, and Foxsly too flighty and unreliable. Was surprised when brother Red and the majority of the rest of the tribe supported Foxsly over him (could not comprehend that it was **because** he was too much like his father, and the tribe was tired of that). Died without Recognizing or reproducing. (Art by Arthur R., color by Holly H.)

P-oakhand2.jpg Oakhand - (0568-1545) M, H=brown, E=blue. Son of Greenleaf and Sweetslip. Big, brawny Hunt-Leader, best known for being good-natured, difficult to upset or anger, fun-loving and prone to laughter, a good sport. Usually let the difficult moods of others roll right off his back. Had charisma and flair, but usually wasn't reckless. A fairly simple, straightforward elf, a little more wolfish than elfish, he always tried to balance what he saw as Easysinger's tendency to overthink things ("chew on a problem until it was damp and tasteless"). Loyal and very dependable. Chieftess Easysinger's long-time lifemate (prior to Blacksnake), but their one child, Hope, died young. Killed while hunting (see CIS for details). (art by Holly H.)
P-owl.jpg Owl - (0410-1245) M, H=grey, E=grey. Son of Squall and Ambergold, brother of Harmony and Spider. Recognized of Wren (father of Dove, Melody, and Reed), and later forced Recognition with Beesting (fathered Raven). The tribe's last healer (until the present day), Owl went mad when a plague decimated the tribe, and he had to be killed by Chieftess Easysinger. Died during the distemper plague of 1245. (art by Holly H.)
P-piper.jpg Piper - (0546-1245) F, H=red, E=blue. Daughter of Beartooth and Ripple, sister of Burr and Minx. Recognized of Hailstone, mother of Wolfmane, Whirlwind, and Magpie. Died during the distemper plague of 1245. (Art by Heidi H.)
P-red.jpg Red - (0043-0790) M, H=red, E=green. Son of Chief Burn and Sparrow, brother of Foxsly and Javelin. Recognized of Darkcurl, father of Dapple and Autumntide. The oldest of the three siblings, Red was closer to his sister Foxsly than to his younger brother. Did not much take after his fiery father. Intelligent, with a wicked sense of humor; was not much of a hunter (particularly compared to his two siblings), but was very good at organization and at thinking through problems, although he was slow to make decisions. Recognized the strengths of his sister under her flighty exterior, and supported her as chief over Javelin. Saw himself in the role of advisor, and felt that Foxsly was much more likely to listen to advice and to delegate tasks she wasn't good at herself, than Javelin was.(art by Trena D.)
P-riversong2.jpg Riversong - (0479-1014) F, H=brown, E=blue & green. Daughter of Raft and Dawn, sister of Tanner. Recognized of Crest, mother of Hawkcall, Lacewing, and Snaptwig; possibly shared soul-names with Chieftess Foxsly. A playful, clever elf who loved music and who had a quirky, mischievous sense of humor. "Riversong" was actually first the name of her favorite harp; she herself went by the name Fishberry for many years, and assumed the name Riversong upon the instrument's destruction in RTH 875. Died in a raging spring flood along with Harmony and Carver, only 12 years after the deaths of Foxsly and Crest. (art by Stacy L.)

P-spearpoint.jpg Spearpoint – (0037-1063) M, H=ruddy brown, E=blue. Son of Deertracker & Bravestride, brother of Sentry and Darkcurl. Recognized of Butterfly, father of Strand and Stormdancer. A genius crafter, Spearpoint learned to knap from Knifemaker, and improved upon her techniques. Spearpoint was mauled by a bear as a youth, and while he did not lose his sight or use of his arms, was partially crippled. He was an artisan who believed that even the most utilitarian of tools could be beautiful, yet could be fiercely traditional in other beliefs. (art by Heidi H.)
