Gifts

All gifts function as written in their corresponding books except as written below:

Gnaw (Intermediate Lupus): Gnaw still requires a Static Physical Challenge if the intent is to do extra damage in combat, the difficulty is based off of the toughness of the target being Gnawed on. A true mortal might only be four or five, if he’s wearing combat armor, and up to nine or more for the heavy chitinous plates of a Wyrm-beast.

Blissful Ignorance (Basic Ragabash): The Physical Challenge is Static with a difficulty based off of convenience of the environment in which to camouflage. With ample cover and color matching that clothing of the Garou in question, the difficulty will be four traits, whereas a black-furred Garou in an empty, stark white hallway will be nine traits or more. You may retest this challenge with Stealth. Blissful ignorance automatically fails if you are being observed while trying to activate it.

Blur of the Milky Eye (Basic Ragabash): The Social Challenge is Static with a difficulty based off of convenience of the environment in which to camouflage. With ample cover and color matching that clothing of the Garou in question, the difficulty will be four traits, whereas a black-furred Garou in an empty, stark white hallway will be nine traits or more. You may retest this challenge with Stealth. Blur of the Milky Eye cannot be activated while observed. When potentially breaking Blur of the Milky Eye, you may retest the Mental Challenge with Stealth, opposed with Investigation.

Spirit Drain (Intermediate Theurge): Spirit Drain siphons Essence from a spirit, granting temporary Willpower.

Call of the Wyld (Basic Galliard] : A single target can only be affected (for good or ill), by a single Call of the Wyld from a single source. Stacking can occur, but only with multiple Galliards.

Call to Duty (Basid Philodox): The area-of-effect version of Call of Duty only affects spirits that are friendly to you. For example, a typical Silver Fang Philodox will not call Banes unless he has chosen the single-target version, requiring him to know the name of the spirit. On the other hand, a Black Spiral Dancer will not call Gaian spirits to his side.

Truth of Gaia (Basic Philodox): Truth of Gaia also detects deliberate acts of deceit, such using phrases with dual meanings to technically tell the truth in order to cover the speaker's true intentions.

Song of Rage (Intermediate Galliard): Song of Rage cannot inspire Thrall of the Wyrm in Garou.

Spirit of the Fray (Basic Ahroun): Spirit of the Fray grants traits only for the purpose of calculating initiative.

True Fear (Basic Ahroun): True Fear tests temporary Rage versus temporary Willpower, rather than Physical Traits versus Willpower. This action goes on normal traits (i.e. if you're going to be bidding 7 Rage for this challenge you go in the normal initiative order at 7 Traits). True Fear retests with Intimidation.

Silver Claws (Intermediate Ahroun): The Rage gained by Silver Claws can exceed your Permanent Rage. Rage exceeding your Permanent Rage vanishes at the end of the scene.

Balor’s Gaze (Intermediate Fianna): Replace “Crippled” with “Wounded.”

Diagnostics (Basic Glass Walker): Retests with Repair, not Crafts.

Well-Oiled Running (Basic Glass Walker): Retests with Repair, not Crafts.

Wolf at the Door (Basic Red Talon): Supernaturals that are not enhanced mortals, such as Vampires or Wraiths, are immune to his power.

Curse of Lycaon (Advanced Red Talon): While this will work on creatures like Ghouls and Kinfolk, it will not affect Mages, Fomori, or Vampires.

Attunement (Intermediate Silent Strider): This gift can be purchased twice, once each for Wilderness and City, however convincing the second Spirit that you should be trusted with both sets of knowledge can be challenging in the best of circumstances.

Paws of the Newborn Cub (Advanced Silver Fang): While shapeshifting is impossible while under the effects of Paws of the Newborn Cub, it freezes a target in their current form, and targets cannot return to breed form.
