The Dewulf Family Had That Wulf Divided In’em: The Life and Times of the Barons of Brancrug And Times They Had That Wulf In’Em
Sources: https://secret-histories.fandom.com/wiki/Dewulf_Family, Rowenarium, the standards.
The name Dewulf either means The Wulf or Of Wulves, I don’t know, maybe it means something else. It does sound like ‘the wulf’ and there are a lot of times that this family was downright wulfish. Here’s some notes about who, how, when, about general wulfishness and bad bitchery.
Heavy spoilers below obvi, also, a TL;DR
Dewulves* are kinky af, mostly into bondage, doing it wulfy style, Eva probably wrote a book called ‘Backshots in Brancrug’ if we’re being ‘so f fr,’ as the kids say.
One Dewulf, two Dewulves, we took the Tolkien-toke
Gideon, Valentine, Eva — I see you, I perceive you, I am not kink-shaming, I’m kink-asking ‘why is this a genetic predisposition?’ Was it that Gideon perfected the art or was Gideon merely the first to exist in a society that allowed that brand of freaky ahh wulfery? Was it always part of the line, since the first Edge baron himself? What’s the deal here?
This is my ‘Keeping Up With The Kadathians,’ and I’m hoping I ‘ate’ with this one, as the kids tell me is the parlance of ‘the day.’* The day isn’t slang, that’s just a direct ‘ahh’ quote from one of the youngin’s on the Tweeter.
Hendrik Dewulf
Wolf Archetype: The Pack Wulf
You’ve heard of edge lords, but what about the Edge Baron? Henrik is apparently associated with Edge and to be honest, it shows. He’s the OW — Original Wulf, basically.
Times he had that Wulf Divided in’em:
Pivoting from priest-in-training to mercenary to baron, going from Lantern (?) to Edge, skipping the whole subversion to Forge entirely frankly, but still putting in the Hush House foundry, making him a real one and showing although he didn’t quite fucks with Forge, he still respected it (makes sense given his relationship with King Henry a.k.a. Old Coppernose)
Sackin’ left and right: Rome, The Hague, presumably his wife (Wulf Divided in the streets, Wulf-with-Two-Backs in the sheets)
Edge masters make everyone a competition — how many times could he give her that little death? Barin’ ass with the baroness…
Hiding Red Willy in the caves over a prophesy, as if that would change the prophesy? Wulf logic. Wulfery of the lowest order.
Hiding your Willy in a hermit cell sounds like a metaphor for doin’ it, and doin’ it wulf style. Perhaps it was just an extended metaphor about doin’ it.
The meeting in the Spire with King Henry
Generally having a porno stache for mustache rides
Thomas Dewulf
Wulf Archetype: Sigma Wulf
He’s that strong silent type of freaky ahh baron. You know the type. We gotta fill in some blanks here. And also some pixels. [Why is his bust so low-res?!]
Baron Silence, means he has that Sigma wulf in’em, probably means he’s into ballgags
Tulpamancer, because that’s what a Didumos basically is, so while others are having wet dreams, he’s having those out-of-body eXXXperiences, wagging his tail in his sleep — wulf move
He was all about that red drank, wulf move, woufing it down, Rubywise Ruining to the point of getting faded af probably, so he gets a little prop in his Snapchat pic
Walter Dewulf + Bryan Dewulf
Wulf Archetype: Technically Wulves But Cutting It Real Close
We really don’t get a lot of info about Walter but we get some about Bryan so I’m slapping them into a DeWulf Divided situation, ironically. More like Wulf Joined ammiright?
Walter:
Responsible for the Grand Ascent, so, thanks for the free Wist card, wulf. Real wulf ahh move.
Bryan:
Hunted in the Hour-forsaken Woods and gave us a recipe for the Mazarine Fife, same book gives us Furs & Feathers. What has Fur? Wulves. Gives us Memory: Fear which has a Lovecraft quote, which confirms Lovecraft exists in the SH universe.
Also, wulves hunt, obvi.
Musgrave Dewulf
Wulf Archetype: Chill Wulf That Lowkey Doesn’t Give A Fuck
We don’t get that much info, but Musgrave is the loyal wulf, the friendly wulf, and didn’t deserve his rude epithets. He’s my wulf.
Didn’t kill a thief, hired him (kinda?) instead, golden-retriever ahh behavior, a wulf in’em
If he didn’t spare him, we wouldn’t get The Beekeeper’s Ends, which is a sick nasty cool ass book, giving Insects and Nectars, which is a great skill
Tells us the secret of Porphyrine production, making him ‘my WULF.’
Gideon Dewulf
Wulf Archetype: Freaky Ahh Wulf
Bondage. Knifeplay. Bloodplay? If you manage to be messed up and into Heart, you must really have that wulf in ya.
Rumored vivisectionist, so into knifeplay, maybe bloodplay sort of Edge coded tbh, a bit Winter, pretty messed up, move that makes you go ‘wulf…,’ ergo calling Gideon a wulf, ego, he must have said wulf in him
Manages to be fucked up and yet associated with Heart, which people usually think is wholesome, pretty sick nasty
Into bondage on bodies and spirits to the point he wrote the literal book on it
Expanded the Physic Garden, basically a wulf park, why? For that wulf in’em.
Wrote a whole ass allegorical poem to describe a simple medical recipe
Into soaking
Also a member of pornostache nation
Heterochromatic eyes, a lot of people may not notice this, but you can check the bust files (bustin’ makes me feel good)
Valentine Dewulf
Wulf Archetype: Proto-Furry Wulf
Literal mad lad, meaning he has. that. wulf. in’em. and that wulf is some kind of mental health issue, we relate.
Suggests a herpetocracy in The Republic of Teeth — Serpent-run government, perhaps code for Worms?
Is this where Eva got her interest in herpetology, was this book somehow related to his interaction with her stymphlings? We may never know. Or we may…in Travelling at Night, wishlist now on Steam.
Bondage fan, must’ve got it from Gideon, plus, into cages
Such a player that his bed — which somehow hadn’t been destroyed by him already — had to be destroyed and Ambrose Westcott, not one to be shy, didn’t explain why
Into The Wheel, who else is into The Wheel? Wulves, they chase cars. Interest in The Wheel is pretty primal, wulf-coded tbh.
The Gullscry Tower situation as a whole and as a hole
Wrote his own autobiography in the third person, and we know wulves think in the third person, and it literally mentions wulves — ‘Long has the Wolf rolled itself in gold like a clovered cow, until its slobberings stain our thoughts…’
Born too early to be a furry, born too late to be Pentiment Precursor, born just in time to pine away in a tower
Eva Dewulf
Wulf Archetype: Alpha Wulf/Bad Bitch
Bad bitch contest, she’s in first place. Bitches are a type of wulf, ergo, she got that wulf in’er. She turns men (and at least one woman, Rowena, her ancestor) into absolute wulves, they’re trying to wulf her down (bad) (or I guess normal in Rowena’s case)
One of the names of her paintings is literally ‘painting.dontmesswithladyeva,’ known in game as ‘Eva and Abraham, 1724.’and both his face in the painting and his face in real life got messed up after he humiliated her
May have had secret progeny?
Rumored to have written an BDSM erotic novel two duels were fought over in denial of her authorship of said work, and not only is it sexy, it’s not even Grail mystery, it’s Winter. What the heck. She got that wulf in her for that one, so f fr.
Got a book of erotic poetry written about her, although it was by Bancroft, who is all about Grail, so maybe that’s just typical Bancroft nonsense, but they may’ve had a kid, and he did give her a sick nasty desk
Rowena probably wanted to commit the Crime of the Sky on Eva, making Eva a snacc
Wrote a book about The Great Hooded Princes
Held salons in the Hall of Division, basically a house of mirrors, a wulf move
One of the best anime of all time is called ‘Eva’ for short in her honor
Could’ve grown a porno stache, just chose not to, so iconic for that, queen
Bonus Wulf (maybe more to come IDK?):
Lord Franklin Bancroft
‘Oh wow, Bancroft seems so romantic, probably a Lantern type situation, very Christophere x The Baldomerian,’ wrong. Bancroft is one dirty wulf, and the only proof he’s not rabid is the fact he’s so damn Thirstly.
