Description

Born in 1974 Donald Masinger was always an awkward kid. He grew up never really engaging with people much but found his joy in music. Some people thought he might be autistic due to his uncanny skill with music. He could play any instrument, but found his love in Electronic music. Years of practice and isolation left him separated from normal society, but his love was performing. After the High School ridicule for being a band geek and choir singer he continued to hone his skills. Sometimes he would be asked to perform at the concert halls on occasion. Though Don found his most enjoyment in the dark seedy bars in clevelandwhere he could perform and make connections with people of interest. Don took the Stage name Essex and began performing more public shows, he had even developed a small following in the early years. One evening after an extremely intense show he found himself seeking his old haunts. Just beyond the train yards there was a small patch of untouched woods where he felt the most himself. He took his keyboard with him that day. He rarely brought his electronic devices out there as it felt out of place but something told him to bring it today. He began playing and that playing swept him away and he felt powerful and feral as he plunged all his heart and soul and angst and love into his music. His heart sang and his voice joined the music. It was overwhelming and soon he could not hold back any longer. He tilted his head back and Howled. Such a strange thing to do he thought but it felt right and then he saw his keyboard light up as if alive and then the trees themselves seemed to have a life of their own. He had felt this before but never this strong and he knew something was about to change forever. And did it. The first change for each werewolf is unique they say, often filled with anger and rage, but for Essex The spirits themselves came alive and brought forth the change out of the thing he most connected with, his music and song. It was not long until the glass walkers found him and they slowly taught Essex their ways. The Weaver was connected deep with the Glass Walkers and Essex felt that, but he also knew that Gaia was just as important. Balance must be maintained and he could do it through his inspirational music. From the lowest rat infested bar to the most opulent concert hall he would use his music to guide humanity into better ways of life and encourage the balance between the wilderness and the cities.

In 2020 Essex came to Pittsburgh in hopes of finding the Garou there more accepting of his Tribe than those in Cleveland. He continued his music and also much of his previous fan base came with him to the City
