Editing Hookwolf (section)

==History==
===Background===
Hookwolf was a trained fighter "before he was a fighter with powers".<ref name="11.e">[[Interlude 11e]]</ref> He fought in illegal lethal parahuman fighting rings alongside [[Stormtiger]] and [[Cricket]] before having to go into hiding to escape a murder charge.<ref name="7.7"/> He may have had been influenced by his shard during the event.<ref name="R222011">'''themanwhowas:''' Give outlets for combat. If you know that the shards drive people to fight each other, give a structure to the fighting. Having this done in the middle of cities as a game of cops and robbers is ... ill advised. If possible, give the capes non-human threats to fight (Man vs Nature conflicts would be ideal).<br>...<br>'''Wildbow:''' Shards might not be imaginative, but they aren't stupid, and they know a charade when they see one. The fighting rings or arenas or whatever else end up becoming powder kegs that lead to disaster (either in the small scale, like we saw with Hookwolf, or something far greater). - [https://redd.it/3dil7d What would a responsible Protectorate actually look like?] ([[Wildbow]], reddit.com, 2015-07-16)</ref>

Luckily for him, Hookwolf had murdered someone who was considered an acceptable target by [[Empire Eighty-Eight]]. He ended up fighting alongside the group for protection.<ref name="7.7"/>

Has committed numerous felonies<ref name="9.1 e1"/> and was known to have escaped while being transported to the [[Birdcage]] twice.<ref name="5.2"/> Because he was sentenced to the Birdcage, the normal steps to protect his identity weren't taken.<ref name="R1111011">'''Without_Thinker:''' What does the public think about this? We're told that, for example, Hookwolf has escaped from Birdcage transport twice; does no one get angry about the multi-murdering Nazi being allowed to have a civilian identity?<br><br>'''Wildbow:''' The fact that he's en route to the birdcage means the usually 'coddling' isn't happening. - [https://redd.it/4ekq39 What do they do when someone is arrested?] ([[Wildbow]], reddit.com, 2016)</ref>

===Story Start===
Hookwolf had risen to being the right hand man of E88. He also gained income from several illegal dog fighting rings.

Said to have been out of town prior to April 23rd, though the legitimacy of the source is in question.<ref>"I think it's worth paying attention to if it leads to situations like this," Grue responded, his voice firm.<br><br>"I delegate to my underlings and trust them to keep track of minor details. Hookwolf has been out of town until recently. He must not have heard."<br><br>The bullshit was so transparent I couldn't help but wonder if he was baiting us. - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2011/11/08/hive-5-2/ Excerpt] from [[Hive 5.2]]</ref>

Staged ambush on the police barricade during the rampage caused by E88's [[Collapse of the Empire Eighty-Eight|identities being revealed]].<ref name="7.7">[[Buzz 7.7]]</ref> 

Faced off against [[Leviathan]] when he came to the city, being one of the front liners who faced the beast.<ref name="8.5e1">A slash of Leviathan's tail brought down two of the stuffed entities, and Hookwolf tackled him to ensure the Endbringer didn't get a moment's respite. Leviathan caught Hookwolf around the middle with his tail, flecks of blood and flesh spraying from the tail as it circled Hookwolf's body of skirring, whisking blades. Leviathan hurled Hookwolf away. - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2012/03/17/extermination-8-5/ Excerpt] from [[Extermination 8.5]]</ref>

===Post-[[Battle against Leviathan|Leviathan]]===
With Empire Eighty-Eight's [[Kaiser|leadership]] gone, Hookwolf formed his own faction - [[Fenrir's Chosen]],<ref name="9.1 e1">"Let's see, the next group is… Fenrir's Chosen?"<br><br>"One of two major offshoots of the Aryan villain group, Empire Eighty-Eight, which fell apart after the death of their leader, Kaiser. Fenrir's Chosen are led by Hookwolf. Violent, utterly merciless, and reveling in the current chaos."<br><br>"And it looks like he's a Shaper 4, Brute 7, with the longest list of homicides or suspected homicides I've seen on someone who wasn't already in prison. Thick file, I take it he has lots of followers?"<br><br>"The largest group in terms of parahuman numbers, at present." - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2012/04/03/cell-9-1/ Excerpt] from [[Sentinel 9.1]]</ref> and started claiming territory and recruiting people in the devastated Brockton Bay.<ref name="9.1">[[Sentinel 9.1]]</ref>

===[[Slaughterhouse Nine|Slaughterhouse 9]]===
He turned down recruitment by the Slaughterhouse 9,<ref name="11.e"/> and called a truce meeting to fight against them.

After exposure to [[Bonesaw]]'s agnosia miasma they were successful at acquiring him. Forgetting his friends and loved ones and snapped up for the Nine.<!--cite tattletale talking about hookwolf and being able to be kept alive by bonesaw-->

Following this he was further twisted into a loyal member of the Nine shedding whatever fictions he had as a moral code while in the group.<ref>[[Interlude 16.y]]</ref> He slowly lost more and more of his mind as well.<ref>"It doesn't sit well," Hookwolf said. "I can't articulate why. My thoughts are still cloudy."<br><br>[[Bonesaw]] hit a button, and the lights began to flicker, the engine beside her starting to hum with a progressively higher pitch. With the flickering of the lights came glimpses of the things beyond. Light on glass and wires.<br><br>"I'd rather a Ragnarök than-" - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2013/04/04/interlude-20-donation-bonus-1/ Excerpt] from [[Interlude 20.x]]</ref>

Would go into stasis with the Nine and come back for the [[Slaughterhouse 9000]] war.

===Post-[[Timeskip]]===
[[Jack Slash]] rode him to take advantage of his many blades. Met his end when [[Foil]] pierced his organic core with one of her empowered projectiles.<ref name="26b">[https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2013/08/08/interlude-26b/ Excerpt] from [[Interlude 26b]]</ref>
