Setting
In the Wars of Rage most Corax were spared, their usefulness to the Get of Fenris, Silver Fangs, and Shadow Lords for ferrying messages across countries and through the umbra saved them. They have always had strong ties to these tribes for this purpose, the Get of Fenris even respect them because of their own Enemy Odin who had two Raven messengers, though Odin is known to them as a powerful and evil immortal who Fenris himself had to stop.

The Corax are welcomed by every group as messengers, they bring good news and bad. All Breeds, all Tribes, have a use for the Corax save the Rokea who’s underwater domain precludes the Corax from their ability to truly fly. As such the two breeds simply rarely ever meet, save a handful of betweeners who have had long discussions with the Corax. This has left the Corax lacking in that area of knowledge and on occasion they seek to rectify this by purposefully meeting Rokea.

During the War of Tears the Corax were used by the Uktena, Wendigo, Croatan, Gurahl, Pumonca, and Mokolé to communicate the movements of their enemies, the Garou Nation’s other tribes. And likewise the invading Garou Tribes used the Corax to communicate the movements of the Purelanders. South America had few Corax, most who had arrived with the Garou Nation, the few “native” had moved from North America to aid their allies in umbral quests and decided to remain in the Jungles of Brazil, or Venezuela.

In modern day the Corax Homids use the internet to traffic information quicker, and faster than ever. Hacking and stealing information from Pentex servers, and sending it to glasswalker allies, and disseminating it to Corvid born Corax for spread to the tribes and breeds that eschew such things. This has left the breed so useful to the Garou Nation, Ahadi Alliance, and Emerald Courts that if they were the next to be struck down by the Wyrm, as other breeds have been, it is possible that there would be no way to recover. These homid born Corax know this and thus are very careful in what they do.

Battle of Crescent Moon
While the Corax are not all known for battle prowess they played a pivotal part in preparation for the battle, alongside the few Nuwisha who chose to aid the Garou. They acted as spies, and ferried information to the other fera and the garou. Without this intelligence the Garou Nation might have lost the Sept of the Crescent Moon, the Caern, and even more lives.
