The Go-Backs are a tribe which did not take the drastic step of crossbreeding with Wolves, yet still maintained a hard existence as hunters and gatherers. They have consciously avoided the use of magical powers, finding them debilitating.

Kahvi3

Kahvi the Go-Backs Chief.

  1. Chiefs wear four braids in the front
  2. Chiefs lead female adolescents on a hunt, where they have to take something from the Chief [citation needed]

Lineage[]

Since the creation of the Go-Backs, there has only been one chief: Kahvi. Unlike the Wolfriders, it does not appear that the title of Chief is passed down through the blood, after Kahvi disappears, Vok, an unrelated Elf, takes on the braids.

As such, while it is probable that Venka will lead the Go-Backs after Kahvi dies, it is not certain.
