The Fera: THAT was for the War Of Rage!
In times before, Fera was a term used to identify all the various breeds of the animal changers. However after the War of Rage, the usage of Fera is commonly used to indicate any shape shifting animal who is not Garou. The Garou have their own assumptions about the Fera, some muddled with time and legend. Like the Garou who are the Warriors of Gaia, each of the Fera have a different purpose. All the surviving Fera have changed because of the War of Rage. Some for the better...some not. The Children of Gaia, Silent Striders and Red Talons generally have the most cordial relations with the Fera.
These Fera are available as Player Characters. Detailed information is found in Dark Ages Werewolf by White Wolf Publishing, Inc.

Note: The Wiki is Out-Of-Game information.
The Shadow Accord Wiki contains information on all the available factions at Shadow Accord and is meant to be a resource for players as they explore the game world. Your character only has access to information that their background dictates. Besides, if everyone's characters were right about everything all the time, what fun would that be?
