The Death Rage - also known as Kuruth in the First Tongue- is a state of mind a werewolf will enter when he loses control of his anger. It is a reminder of the death of Father Wolf and a warning of the death that follows in an enraged Uratha's wake. The truest meaning, however, is that succumbing to Kuruth is a loss of self akin to death—and that it courts the possibility of dying like a rabid beast instead of as a warrior or hunter.
