As I posted upthread, per WoK all but 2 survived & were used by the Wolves. To include Jorgenson
Sarna is not correct in this particular case. WoK does not say that "all but 2 survived" and never calls out Karrige or Vordermark specifically (because neither of these characters existed when WoK was published).
What WoK
actually says is this:
The Wolves likewise allowed three-quarters of Clan Widowmaker's Bloodnames to die out, though their genetic material lives on as part of other Bloodheritages.
This is noted alongside the Wolverines and the Mongoose lines that the Jaguars allowed to die out, noting that these three Clans account for 107 of the 118 "lost" Bloodnames (the total number of Bloodnames as of WoK's in-universe publication was 682), so we aren't talking about "inactive" Bloodnames, we're talking about
gone Bloodnames.
If the Wolves only kept 25% of the Widowmakers' Bloodnames, that means that at most, they have 10 of them. OpKlondike contradicts this a bit, as there are a number of Widowmaker Bloodnames that are active in various products that take the total over 10 (Conners, Dubczeck, Herling, Juergens, Leroux, Meredith, Mutola, Nevski, Pletz, Rhyde, Sender, Ruby, Sanders, Vickers and
possibly Jorgensson), but it's still close enough that I think WoK is still pretty accurate.
Not to mention the fact that prior to Vlad & the Jade Wolves, Ulric opened up every single "non-active" heritage that Wolves owned on a temporary basis for Operation Revival.
This is where it gets sticky.
WoK specifically says that the reactivation mechanism allowed for Clan Wolf to field a thousand Bloodnamed warriors, the maximum allowed to each Clan, during the invasion (
and also that most of them weren't renewed after Tukayyid). A thousand Bloodnamed warriors means that the Wolves could field 40 total Bloodnames with a full 25 Bloodnamed warriors each (and this is just accounting for the Wolves' own original Bloodnames, minus their 3 extras). Every Widowmaker Bloodname reactivated would mean one less Wolf Bloodname being reactivated (otherwise the Wolves would exceed the mandated total), but I could see the Wolves prioritizing Widowmaker Bloodnames that perform well over Wolf Bloodnames that don't.
And I would posit that more than 2 widowmaker bloodlines are not used. Lines that were reactivated can be deactivated as well.
WoK would suggest that you're right, rebs. It says that most of the reactivated lines were deactivated again after Tukayyid.
There are Jorgensons listed in Falcon & Wolf.
These are not just paternal donner DNA like Natasha had, these are active heritages in Clan Wolf on the Rosters.
Having a couple of Jorgenssons in the Wolf ranks doesn't prove anything; they could be abtakha from the Ghost Bears for all we know. The Falcons have a Bloodnamed Koga, a Bloodnamed Kabrinski and a Bloodnamed McKenna in their ranks in the same book, and those are exclusive Coyote/Ghost Bear/Snow Raven Bloodnames respectively, so the precedent is certainly there.
There's just no reality in which one could ever convince me that the Wolves didn't flush the genetic legacy of the man who killed Nicholas Kerensky down the nearest toilet. I mean, what Wolf warrior is going to want to fight for a Bloodname that belonged to the man that murdered the Founder? It makes absolutely no sense to me. (Though, to be fair, Cal Jorgensson was created
long after F&W, so I'm just gonna blame FASA and be done with it, lol.)
