Required: You must clap your hands together -- which requires being in Homid, Glabro or Crinos form

Activation Cost: One Gnosis

Challenge: Willpower vs. everyone within 10 feet

Retest: Occult

Effect: Slamming your hands together, you release the sound of a tremendous thunderclap. The sound stuns everyone within ten feet who fails the challenge, rendering them unable to act for one turn.

Cold Voice of Reason

Activation Time: Reflexive

Required: Speak to your target in a language they can understand.

Activation Cost: One Gnosis

Challenge: Social vs. target

Retest: Subterfuge

Duration: Three turns, or until the target is attacked by anyone

Disfigurement

Activation Time: Normal

Activation Cost: One Gnosis

Challenge: Social vs. target

Retest: Subterfuge

Effect: You whisper a rumor about someone that makes others look upon them with distaste. Your target gains the Negative Social Trait Repugnant. Multiple uses of this gift on a target are not cumulative.

Duration: One Scene

Ears of the Bat

Activation Time: At Will

To Learn: Must be a member of the Children of Bat camp to learn this gift.

Effect: When active the Garou suffers no penalty for acting in complete darkness.  A means of generating ultrasonic or extremely high-pitched sounds negates the effectiveness of this gift.

Hidden Secrets

Activation Time: Normal

To Learn: Must be a member of the Children of Crow camp to learn this gift.

Challenge: Static Mental Challenge vs 11 traits

Retest: Subterfuge

Effect: You learn one of your target's most embarrassing secrets (e.g. he sometimes still wets the bed, she regularly gets drunk and hooks up with strangers).  The secret has no combat value, but the blackmail potential is great.

Interrogator

Activation Time: Normal

Required: You must be a member of the Judges of Doom or Lords of the Summit camp to learn this gift.

Frequency: Once per target per lunar month

Activation Cost: One Willpower

Challenge: Social vs. target

Retest: Subterfuge or Investigation

Effect: You inspire a terror in your target that forces them to confess to you the most serious crime they have committed within the last lunar month.

Fatal Flaw

Activation Time: Normal

Challenge: Mental vs. target

Retest: Empathy

Follow-up Cost: optionally, 2 or 4 Mental Traits

Effect: After a turn of studying your target, you pick out their key vulnerabilities. You intuitively target them, doing an extra level of damage with all your attacks. If you spend two Mental Traits, you learn one additional weakness that does not necessarily provide a combat advantage, at the target's discretion. If you spend four Mental Traits, you learn all their Negative Traits instead.

Duration: One combat

Luna’s Armor

Activation Time: Personal

Frequency: Once per scene

Activation Cost: One Gnosis

Effect: You invoke Luna's light to protect you from your enemies' attacks, visibly veiling you in her light. You gain a number of Armor levels equal to your Rank plus one. Even once this Armor is gone, Luna’s blessing remains allowing a Garou to soak Silver Damage regardless of form. However, this protection from silver is lost if a new source of Barrier Armor is activated.

Armor Type: Barrier

Duration: One Scene or Hour

Patagia

Activation Time: At Will

To Learn: Must be a member of the Children of Bat camp to learn this gift.

Effect: Once the gift is learned, the Garou grows large flaps of skin under her arms that can be used to glide like a flying squirrel.  When not in use, the membranes shrink into the Garou's arms and sides, becoming undetectable.  The Garou may only glide with this gift, not fly like a bird, and her top speed is 25 mph.

Perceptive Servant

Activation Time: Personal

To Learn: Must be a member of the Children of Crow camp to learn this gift.

Required: Must be performing a nefarious activity to gather information using sight or hearing.

Activation Cost: One Gnosis

Duration: Until you finish gathering information

Pure Identity

Activation Time: Personal

To Learn: You must be a member of the Bringers of Light camp to learn this gift.

Activation Cost: Three Gnosis

Effect: You mask your werewolf nature as that of any supernatural you like -- appearing to mystical senses as if you are a vampire, mage, changeling, or what-have-you. If anyone finds reason to suspect you and they give you extra scrutiny, make a static Social Challenge (retest Subterfuge) against a difficulty of their number of Wily Traits (or synonyms) plus Subterfuge Abilities. If you fail, your disguise slips.

Duration: One day

Pure Scent

Activation Time: Personal

To Learn: You must be a member of the Bringers of Light camp to learn this gift.

Activation Cost: One Gnosis

Challenge: Mental vs. eight Traits

Retest: Primal Urge

Effect: You maintain an air of mystery. The next challenge to learn your auspice, tribe or breed automatically fails.

Duration: One session

Rains of Mercy

Activation Time: Unique

Activation Cost: One Gnosis

Effect: You call down an oppressive rainstorm. It doesn't take place immediately, but by day's end, a downpour covers the area where you invoked this gift. It covers a radius of one mile for each level of Rank you possess. The storm is not harsh, but it is heavy.

Duration: The storm's natural duration

Seizing the Edge

Activation Time: At Will

Required: While this gift can be activated at any time, the traits bonus can only be applied if you are engaged in a direct confrontation, such as a combat or a staredown. As such this gift has no benefit towards static challenges. 

Activation Cost: One Gnosis

Effect: You gain an unfair advantage in a conflict, as befits a grandchild of Thunder. For the rest of the scene you gain a Trait bonus equal to your Rank for comparison on ties in challenges that involve direct conflict. (You can't use the bonus on static Challenges to activate Gifts or use Abilities.) Apply this bonus to either your Physical, Social, or Mental Traits. Once a turn, you may switch this Trait bonus between these categories, although you cannot split it up.

Duration: One Scene

Shadow Weaving (W20)

Activation Time: Personal

Activation Cost: 1 Gnosis

Challenge: Static Physical vs. 10

Retest: Occult

Effect: You may manipulate all shadows within 100 feet, causing them to twist forms. Among other uses, this allows you to grant a target a +1 trait bonus to Stealth or Intimidation challenges.

Duration: One scene

Song of the Earth Mother (W20)

Activation Time: Unique - The Garou must spend at least 10 minutes communing with the earth.

Activation Cost: Three Gnosis

Challenge: Static Mental Challenge vs 9 traits

Retest: Occult

Effect: Success on the Mental Challenge will indicate to you if there are supernatural creatures within 100 yards of you.  This gift will also indicate to you whether or not they are wyrm-tainted, but will not give you any more specific information.

Note: Prior to W20 you had to be a member of the Children of Bat camp to learn this gift.  It is now a general camp gift.

Whisper Catching

Activation Time: Personal

Activation Cost: One Willpower

Effect: Secrets seem to carry themselves to your ears; with this gift, you may eavesdrop on one whispered conversation nearby, even if you're across the room. You hear the conversation with clarity, although a Storyteller is justified in asking you for a Mental Challenge to filter out distractions in a very noisy environment like a nightclub. This gift will not succeed against any conversation protected by the Murmur Rite.

Duration: One scene

Assassin's Strike

Activation Time: Personal (Movement)

To Learn: You must be a member of the Judges of Doom camp to learn this gift.

Activation Cost: One Rage and one Gnosis (yes, this is an exception)

Challenge: Gnosis vs. the Gauntlet (stepping sideways)

Retest: Primal Urge

Effect: You step sideways, but instead of stepping through the Gauntlet you step along it -- disappearing from where you were and reappearing behind your victim. Your next attack gains a two-Trait bonus. If your target isn't using any sort of supernaturally sharp senses, that attack also gains surprise.

Duration: Your next attack

Call the Storm

Activation Time: Normal

Activation Cost: One Gnosis

Challenge: Willpower vs. variable difficulty -- four Traits to worsen the weather a bit, nine Traits to completely transform it

Retest: Science or Occult

Effect: You can summon up bad weather as you please, from merely chilling the winds to causing a blizzard on a summer's day. The storm covers a ten-mile radius. If it's a thunderstorm, you may spend a Gnosis and make a Physical Challenge (with the above retest Ability) against a target to tag them with a lightning bolt, dealing four Aggravated damage.

Duration: One Scene

Dark Aerie

Activation Time: Personal

To Learn: Must be a member of the Children of Crow camp to learn this gift.

Activation Cost: One Gnosis

Effect: Gravity loses its grip on you; you can hover, float about, and fly through the air as you please. Your maximum speed is 20 miles per hour. In combat, you have a movement of four "steps" through the air. You also suffer a one-Trait penalty to all combat maneuvers unless you purchase the Flight Ability. Gifts and Fetishes that increase ground speed do not affect this movement.  In addition, your body becomes shrouded in shadow, providing you a +2 trait bonus on stealth related challenges when in dark areas.

Duration: One Hour

Direct the Storm

Activation Time: Normal

Required: A target packmate is in Frenzy

Activation Cost: One Gnosis

Challenge: Willpower vs. target packmate

Retest: Leadership

Effect: Your powers of leadership extend even over a packmate who has lost herself to Frenzy -- even to the Thrall of the Wyrm. Your packmate will direct their fury against a victim of your choosing. (Victims after this one is dealt with are chosen by Frenzy as usual, unless you Direct the Storm again.) If you fail your challenge to activate this gift, attempt a Rage Challenge against seven Traits; if you fail this, you fall into Frenzy yourself.

Durance (W20)

Activation Time: Reflexive

Required: You have just used a Talen

Activation Cost: One Gnosis

Effect: The spirit does not depart the talen, but remains ready for later use.  This does not function for talens whose physical form is destroyed in their activation (such as Basket of Bones which falls apart after 3 uses).

Icy Chill of Despair

Activation Time: Personal

Activation Cost: One Gnosis to activate the Gift 

Retest: Intimidation

Effect: The Shadow Lord with this Gift spends a Gnosis and appears to grow larger and more imposing, becoming a terrible, shadowy version of herself. This change in aspect can severely intimidate any onlookers. It affects anyone who can see the Shadowlord within the area. Onlookers must spend a Willpower to engage the Shadowlord in a Social Challenge in order to oppose them in any way.  If this challenge is won they are no longer affected by this Gift for the duration of the scene. Targets can attempt this challenge every round as long as they spend the per-requisite Willpower to attempt to pierce this Gift.

Challenge: Social vs Shadowlord to pierce the Chill

Duration: One scene or hour. If the Shadowlord attacks this Gift is dispelled.

Open Wounds

Activation Time: Personal

Frequency: Once per target per scene

Activation Cost: One Gnosis, plus 0-5 Mental Traits

Effect: You prepare a strike so devastating that it lays open a vital artery. If your next attack inflicts any damage, your victim takes a level of Lethal damage at the beginning of every turn thereafter until the effect ends. They may not heal these levels of damage until then. (If your next attack fails, the effects of this gift are lost.)

Duration: The wound bleeds for one turn plus one for each Mental Trait you spend, beginning the turn after you struck

Paralyzing Stare

Activation Time: Normal

Requirement: Your target must be able to see your eyes and facial expression.

Activation Cost: One Gnosis

Challenge: Social vs. target

Retest: Intimidation

Effect: One glimpse of your terrifying visage freezes your target in place, unable to move, for the duration. 

Duration: A number of turns equal to your permanent Gnosis, or until the target takes damage.

Raven’s Wings

Activation Time: Normal - The spirit raven acts immediately after the user of this gift.

Activation Cost: One Gnosis

Effect: You bring forth a spirit avatar in the form of a raven, capable of spying on your enemies. The raven exists in the Penumbra; it sees the Penumbra automatically and may peek into the physical world. It cannot affect the physical world itself, or be affected by any sort of attacks from the physical. It may fly up to five miles away from you. When you concentrate, you may see and hear through the eyes and ears of the raven.

Duration: One scene

Seeds of Doubt

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.

Shadow Cutting

Activation Time: Normal

Required: You must spit on your target's shadow. 

Activation Cost: One Gnosis

Effect: You gain the power to damage a target by attacking its shadow. Only attacks made with claws, teeth, silver or fetish weapons are effective: mundane blades and guns will have no effect. Your target cannot parry these attacks, and makes all attempts to dodge them at a two-Trait penalty. The Storyteller may tweak these benefits and penalties if the shadows are particularly long (such as during dusk or dawn) or particularly small (high noon).

Duration: One Scene

Strength of the Dominator

Activation Time: Normal

Frequency: Once per target per scene

Challenge: Social vs. target

Retest: Intimidation

Effect: You commandeer a target's Rage, taking it for your own use. Each turn this gift is in effect, your opponent loses one Rage and you gain one Rage.

Duration: Three turns, starting the next turn

Summon Stormcrow

Activation Time: Normal - The summoned Stormcrow acts immediately after the user of this gift.

Activation Cost: One Gnosis

Challenge: static Social vs. 12 Traits

Retest: Intimidation 

Effect: You summon a Stormcrow, an Umbral spirit who will serve you for a single task. Stormcrows can serve as messengers, spies, distractions or harriers. They are invisible in the physical realm, and in the Umbra barely visible: to see one requires a Mental Challenge against the spirit (retest Investigation). The Stormcrow has 2 Rage, 5 Willpower, 3 Gnosis, and 20 Essence, and the Charms Airt Sense, Reform and Materialize.

Duration: However long the task requires

Under the Gun (W20)

Activation Time: Normal

Required: You must touch the target with your fingertips (this may require a physical challenge, if done in combat)

Activation Cost: One Gnosis

Challenge: Social v. target

Retest: Firearms

Effect: The target draws bullets and other projectiles (arrows, hurled knives, and other missile weapons) to themselves, suffering a two-trait penalty to all defenses against ranged attacks.

Duration: One session or day

Obedience

Activation Time: Normal

Activation Cost: One Gnosis

Challenge: Willpower vs. up to 20 targets

Retest: Leadership

Follow-up Cost: 1-5 additional Gnosis

Effect: You command obedience, becoming the perfect tyrant. Each person in the vicinity must succeed in a Willpower challenge against you (retest Leadership) to avoid succumbing to your will. The number of additional Gnosis you spend determines how much obedience you can compel: one Gnosis allows you to give orders that your subjects would not ordinarily mind following (even if they wouldn't choose to follow them right now); three Gnosis, and your subjects will look to you as their Alpha and fight on your behalf; five Gnosis and they will follow you into Malfeas itself, undertaking virtually suicidal quests to please you.

Duration: Determined by the degree of obedience compelled, but no more than one session

Shadow Pack

Activation Time: Normal - The summoned shadows act immediately after the user of this gift.

Challenge: Gnosis vs. eight Traits

Retest: Occult

Follow-up Cost: 1-5 Gnosis

Effect: Shapes peel out of the darkness, each one your own reflection, wrought in shadow. They fight on your behalf. One duplicate appears for each Gnosis you spend. Each duplicate has your Physical, Social, Mental, Ability, and Rage Traits; they cannot, however, use Gnosis, Willpower, or Gifts. Each has only one Health Level; taking damage destroys them. They fade away when the gift ends.

Duration: One Scene

Wounding Lies

Activation Time: Normal

Activation Cost: One Gnosis

Challenge: Social vs. target

Retest: Intimidation

Effect: You inflict harsh consequences on any target who chooses to lie to you. For the scene, if your target tells a lie, a mystical wound gashes their flesh, dealing one Aggravated damage. Even half-truths open small wounds, although these don't do any real levels of damage. Omissions -- like leaving out a contact's hair color when asked for her description -- are not punished by the gift. Your target may spend five Gnosis in order to stop this treatment, but if they do not, the Storyteller is justified in requiring some sort of Willpower challenge from them if they try to keep silent in the face of such humiliation and pain.

Duration: One Scene
