History
Despite the nickname, Nevada was not born in his name-sake state; though he did live there for a time. He rarely shares his real name, having accepted his sobriquet and made it a part of him. Nevada's childhood, was by no means ideal, by the time Nevada was eight his mother had died of pneumonia and his father had taken the only work he could find, as an enforcer for a local bookie.
It was an interesting time for him. He spent lots of time at the bookies and various illegal gambling establishments. His father’s co-workers started treating him like their own personal mascot and he was commonly known to be quick enough to run messages to and fro. He then graduated to helping the enforcers find “welchers” and other who owed money, and soon they were teaching him how to fight. A hobby he took to with great zeal.
He started getting into fights for fun, even when he wasn’t being paid to help collect debts. Then one night, under the light of a half moon, he got knifed. He barely remembers what happened afterward, just that it was bloody. He had finally found the birthright given to him by his wolf-blood mother, he became an Uratha.
No pack had found him before his change, and it took some time for him to truly understand what it was he had become. He found that old friends could no longer stand to be around him, that they seemed scared even when he acted normally. He took to wandering across the country. Eventually, he happened upon a pack of Uratha that took him in for a time and taught him the ways.
He joined the Hunters in Darkness, as they appealed to his predatory nature.
His first pack consisted entirely of Hunters. They swept through areas seeking to Purify places that had been taken by spirits. Primarily, they hunted Azlu. Nevada grew to learn an awful lot about Azlu in his time with the Spider Shards pack. Eventually, after clearing several small patches, they found a large nest. One too large for the pack to handle on its own. They crept around town for a while until they found more Uratha and convinced them to help clean out this last nest within the city.
The battle was not easy.
It seems they had underestimated the strength of the nest and the reigning Azlu. Many fell in both packs. Afterwards, only three remained. They bound themselves together as a new pack and moved on, none of them wishing to remain in a city where they had lost so many friends.
The next town, saw them fighting Azlu again. And the next and the next.
The pattern went on for years. Nevada would find himself in a pack thrown together from the remains of packs who had banded together to fight an Azlu infestation. Each time friends lost, and each time a little more insight gained.
Nevada became renowned for his purity of cause and purpose. For bringing purity to unpure lands. He is continuously marveled by the fact that circumstance raised him in the eyes of others. He was never doing more than was required in the situation, yet many of his fellows celebrate his dedication. Maybe they see what they want to. And maybe “Hero” means nothing more than someone who does what has to be done at great personal risk.
