Empathy of Hatred

Activation Time: Personal

Effect: You are so attuned to the ebb and flow of Rage that you can sense it in others. After a moment of study, you learn another's current and permanent levels of Rage. The gift Aura of Confidence blocks this effect.

Falling Touch

Activation Time: Normal

Activation Cost: One Gnosis

Challenge: Physical vs. target

Retest: Medicine

Effect: With a precise strike to a key pressure point, you send a foe sprawling. Your target falls down, unable to move from that spot or initiate Physical Challenges for the duration. They may defend themselves from challenges as normal.

Duration: Four actions (or fifteen seconds out of combat); spending Rage for extra actions helps burn through the duration.

Inspiration

Activation Time: Normal

Activation Cost: One Gnosis

Effect: With a rousing speech or howl -- or maybe just a steely gaze -- you inspire your companions to stay true to their purpose. You and all allies in earshot may call on one of the following effects during this scene or next: an automatic success when defending on a single Willpower Challenge; one additional Willpower Trait to spend; or an automatic win on a test to resist Frenzy. Multiple uses of the Gift do not stack, although you can re-apply the effect after a beneficiary uses it.

Duration: This scene and next

Loyal Defender (W20)

Activation Time: Automatic

Challenge: Static Willpower vs Controller’s Willpower

Retest: Primal Urge

Effect: The creatures of the Wyrm conspire constantly to turn Garou against their packs, to sow the seeds of doubt that the Ahroun is too much of a threat to their own pack. By learning this gift, the Ahroun swears that their loyalty to their pack will never waiver. Any attacks the Garou makes against their packmates, for any reason, suffer a 2-trait penalty. If they deal damage to a packmate, and are under a supernatural influence, they may immediately make a static Willpower Challenge vs the Willpower of the creature who is controlling them. Success causes the effect to immediately end, and the Garou gains a point of Rage.

Duration: Permanent

Challenge: Static Social vs difficulty of the highest Permanent Willpower among enemies.

Retest: Intimidation
