Alter Scent

Activation Time: Personal

Activation Cost: One Gnosis

Effect: You replace the scent coming from your body with any other scent you know.

Duration: One Scene or Hour

Blissful Ignorance

Activation Time: Normal

Required: You must remain still, make no noise, and don't interacting with your environment.

Effect: Your appearance blurs away into a haze, difficult to follow by all but the sharpest eyes. People who are looking at you when you activate this gift can keep track of you, but others can only notice you if they are using supernatural senses or if you visibly disturb the environment.

You must move no faster than half speed and must make noise no louder than a whisper.

Duration: Until you move faster than half your speed, make noise louder than a whisper, or interact with your environment.

Activation Time: Normal

Challenge: Social, vs. any person using supernatural detection to see through the illusion

Retest: Subterfuge 

Effect: You may disguise any of your Fetishes or talens as mundane objects. This also conceals any unusual decoration upon them; klaives will appear to be steel, glyphs and jewels will be hidden or masked as cheap imitations, etc.

Retest: Subterfuge

Follow-up Cost: 1-5 Social Traits

Effect: You stop someone from saying the wrong thing at the wrong time. They cannot communicate verbally for the duration of the gift.

Duration: 1 turn per Social Trait spent

Infectious Laughter (W20)

Activation Time: Normal

Required: Make an audible comment mocking an argument.

Challenge: Mass Social vs. listeners

Retest: Expression

Activation Time: Normal

Required: You must be speaking the truth as you know it.

Activation Cost: One Willpower

Challenge: Social v. any supernatural targets

Retest: Subterfuge

Effect: Your words become supernaturally dishonest, causing all hearers to disbelieve the truth. Humans are automatically affected; any supernatural listeners must be defeated in the above social challenge to be persuaded of your deceit.  This gift does not defeat Truth of Gaia, as the Philodox gift provides supernatural evidence of the speaker’s words.

Duration: Until evidence is presented that verifies the original story.

Obscure the Truth

Activation Time: Personal

Activation Cost: One Gnosis

Effect: Sly as any fox, you lie and manipulate with the best. In challenges involving the Subterfuge Ability, you may call upon a might-like retest (like all might-like retests this is the last retest you may call in the challenge).

Challenge: Extended Physical vs 12

Retest: Athletics

Activation Cost: One Gnosis when used reflexively. No cost otherwise.

Duration: A number of minutes equal to your permanent Gnosis rating.

Slip of the Tongue

Activation Time: Normal

Required: Engage your target in a conversation about the topic

Challenge: Social vs. target

Retest: Subterfuge 

Effect: You have a deft and mystical knack for getting others to reveal more than they intend. Once you have the target talking about a topic, using this gift forces them to make an inadvertent remark on something they wished to hide regarding the topic.

Spider's Song (W20)

Activation Time: Personal

Activation Cost: One Gnosis

Effect: You can steal messages from the Weaver’s web, plucking them from the air or eavesdropping as they race through telephone lines.  By pressing an ear against a telephone line, you may overhear all conversations happening across that line.

Duration: For as long as you remain in contact or can see the mobile phone user.

Taking the Forgotten

Activation Time: Normal

Required: You've taken something from the target 

Challenge: Mental vs. target

Retest: Stealth (you); Streetwise (your target)

Effect: You've become such an effective thief that your mark forgets ever having owned what you stole from them.

Duration: One turn per Social Trait spent, or until you take action other than singing

Fool's Luck

Activation Time: Personal

Liar's Craft (W20)

Activation Time: Normal

Activation Cost: One Gnosis

Challenge: Social vs. target

Retest: Subterfuge

Effect: You tell a lie to your target, who finds your words supernaturally convincing. As long as the lie is not obviously harmful to the listener, they will believe it, no matter how absurd it seems. "There's no reason to arrest me, officer," "The Alpha slept with your sister," and "I am wearing clothes fit for an emperor!" are all lies that would work; "It's safe to stand on the train tracks" and "blowfish sushi is your favorite" are not.

Duration: Your target will believe the lie until they are somehow convinced otherwise, be that firsthand evidence or years of therapy.

Luna's Blessing

Activation Time: At Will

Required: You must be outdoors and the moon must be clearly visible in the night sky (yes, that means it doesn't work during the new moon)

Required: The target must be able to see you (although there's no need for eye contact).

Activation Cost: One Gnosis

Activation Time: Normal

Activation Cost: One Willpower

Challenge: Social, vs. target

Retest: Subterfuge

Effect: For each permanent dot of Subterfuge you possess, you may take a single action that your target simply doesn't notice, no matter how brazen. You may steal the glasses off of their face, or even kill someone standing right next to them. Once the Gift wears off, they will notice any evidence you haven't hidden yet.

Duration: Until you have run out of actions, or until the target is threatened with direct bodily harm (including being grappled or otherwise restrained, but not including having their possessions removed).

Monkey Tail

Activation Time: Automatic

Effect: Your tail is prehensile. It can grasp objects, suspend you from the rafters, or even swing a weapon (though it doesn't count as an "off-hand" or give you extra actions). Your tail is not especially strong, however, so you may not bid Strength traits when using it for Physical Challenges.

Duration: Always in effect

Open Moon Bridge

Activation Time: Normal

Required: You're at a Caern

Activation Cost: One Gnosis

Effect: With or without the cooperation of a Caern Totem, you open a moon bridge as per the Rite of the Opened Bridge. This bridge can extend up to one thousand miles and end anywhere.

Pathfinder (W20)

Activation Time: Normal

Challenge: Static Mental v. 12 traits

Retest: Survival (in wilderness) or Streetwise (in urban settings)

Effect: You reach a destination faster than usual, reducing the time it would take by up to half of what it would normally take. This does not increase your actual movement speed, but rather means that you find shortcuts that others can't. This also causes anyone tracking you to suffer a -2-trait penalty, which stacks with such Gifts as Scent of Running Water

Terrain Shift (W20)

Activation Time: Normal

Activation Cost: One Gnosis

Effect: You may change natural terrain around you, to grant yourself passage or deny it to pursuers. These changes are relatively small in scale; you could create a ford across a small stream, but not across the Mississippi at its mouth. This also only affects natural terrain; you can close the mouth of a cave, but not seal off a blast door.

Duration:  Each change is permanent; thus, to create a door for yourself and then close it on your enemies is two separate uses of the Gift.

The Usual Suspects

Activation Time: Normal

Required: A clear view or strong scent of your target

Activation Cost: One Gnosis

Challenge: Mental vs. target

Retest: Enigmas

Effect: You have a knack for keeping mystical awareness about others' whereabouts. If your challenge succeeds, you gain a constant sense of your target's general location. You may track a number of targets this way equal to your permanent Gnosis rating.

Activation Time: Reflexive

Required: You are the target of a Brawl- or Melee-based attack

Activation Time: Reflexive

Activation Cost: One Gnosis

Effect: You open a passage through the Umbra for your opponent to step through. If you successfully dodge the attack, your opponent steps sideways as if they had spent a point of Gnosis to do so. This works even on opponents who cannot normally cross the Gauntlet (such as vampires or spirits without the Materialize charm).  The Gnosis must be spent prior to attempting to dodge; if you fail to dodge the gift’s effects are wasted.

Activation Time: Normal

Frequency: Once per scene per target

Activation Cost: One Gnosis

Challenge: Gnosis vs. target

Retest: Medicine

Follow-up Cost: 0-5 Gnosis

Effect: You utter a curse on your foe, inflicting sickness and palsy on their body. You remove a number of temporary Physical Traits from your target (your choice) equal to the total number of Gnosis you spend activating the gift (including the initial cost). These traits are marked off as if spent, but they may not regained by any means until the end of the session. Also, having lost Permanent Traits to another version of this gift does not confer an immunity to this version.

Duration: The traits are lost and cannot be refreshed until the end of the session.

Blank

Activation Time: Normal

Activation Cost: Three Rage

Challenge: Willpower vs. all supernatural targets in the area; automatic success vs. non-supernaturals

Retest: Occult

Follow-up Cost: 1-5 Gnosis (yes, even though you spent Rage)

Effect: Why sneak around when you can do your dirty deeds in plain sight? You temporarily shut down conscious thought for everyone affected in the area. They remain standing but stop moving; their senses go dull and they stop being aware of anything for the duration. This buys you a window of time in which to set up some epic mischief, but take care: attacking any victim of the effect ends it.

Duration: A number of turns equal to the Gnosis you spent plus one, or until someone is attacked

Duration: A number of turns equal to the Gnosis you spent

Thousand Forms

Activation Time: Normal

Activation Cost: One Gnosis

Challenge: Automatic for non-mythical creatures; static Mental vs. 18 Traits for a mythical creature

Retest: Animal Ken 

Effect: Embodying the classic trope of the trickster as a shapeshifter, you can change into any animal form between the size of a bluebird and a bison. You can even take on the shapes of mythical creatures, although you can't become a wyrm-beast of any sort. You gain all the standard powers of the animal in question, such as flight, gills, poisonous fangs, etc.

Duration: Until you choose to end the effect

Turn the Moon

Activation Time: Normal

Activation Cost: One Willpower

Challenge: Social vs. target

Retest: Primal Urge

Follow-up Cost: 1-5 Social Traits

Effect: In order to share a new viewpoint or punish someone who is too proud of their role, you can give a fellow Garou a new Auspice of your choice for a time. Your target loses all access to their usual auspice gifts, and their Rage adjusts to the base minimum of the auspice. Even their thinking changes for a while, drawn to the stereotype of their new role. They cannot learn any Gifts of their new auspice during this time, however.

Duration: A number of days equal to the Social Traits spent

Violation

Activation Time: Normal

Required: You must be touching your target, which may require a physical challenge. 

Challenge: Social vs. target
