Airt Perception

Activation Time: At Will

Effect: When moving through the Umbra, a spirit leave a mystical trail called an airt. This Gift makes airts visible to you, so that you may make ordinary tracking challenges (involving such skills as Investigation and Primal Urge) to hunt down the spirit.

Battle Mandala (W20)

Activation Time: Normal

Activation Cost: One Gnosis

Challenge: Static Mental v. 12 traits

Retest: Occult

Follow-up Cost: 0-5 Mental traits

Effect: You conjure a mystical sigil visible only to those with a Gnosis rating, making a circle with a radius of ten steps, plus ten more steps per trait spent. Every spirit within this pattern, excepting your pack totem and any personal totems or numen of you or your packmates, lose one Essence per round.

Duration: One scene, or until you leave the mandala.

Blood Life

Activation Time: Reflexive

Required: You must have successfully done damage to health levels against the target using a bite attack. The target must also have running blood (no vampires on constructs).

Activation Cost: 1 Gnosis

Challenge: Simple Challenge

Effect: The Garou receives a brief vision of a memory from the target's past determined by the ST (or player if the target is a PC). This vision has some significance or relevance to the current situation. The Garou gains bonus traits for the action they take that is related to the vision received. If the simple challenge was a success they receive 5 bonus traits, if it was a tie they receive 3 bonus traits, and if it was a failure they receive one bonus trait.

Duration: Until an action related to the vision is taken.

Command Spirit

Activation Time: Normal

Activation Cost: One Willpower

Challenge: Social vs. target spirit

Retest: Leadership

Follow-up Cost: 0 to 5 Willpower Traits

Effect: By the force of your will and your auspice, you compel a spirit to obey a simple command. For each additional Willpower you spend, you may add an additional simple command. This Gift is not strong enough to force a spirit to leave areas or items that they're bound to; the intermediate Theurge gift Exorcism provides that capability.

Eyes of the Lynx (W20)

Activation Time: Personal

Challenge: Static Mental vs. 9 Traits

Retest: Awareness

Effect: Lynx Spirits, much like their physical kin have superb eyesight. The Garou can perceive through 15ft of material when this gift is activated.

Duration: One scene

Hear the Silence (W20)

Activation Time: Personal

Activation Cost: 1 Gnosis

Effect: A Garou with this gift is in tune with the secrets of the world. By activating this gift the Garou learns who in the immediate vicinity is keeping a secret from them (or keeping a secret in general). The Garou does not learn anything about the secret itself, only that they are keeping a secret.

Mother's Touch

Activation Time: Personal

Required: Touching the wound to be healed on another living creature. This gift does not mend Battle Scars.

Activation Cost: 1 Gnosis

Challenge: None vs Garou; Mental Challenge vs. non-Garou

Follow-Up Challenge: Extended Static Mental Challenge vs. twice the subject's Rage or Willpower, whichever is greater

Retest: Medicine

Follow-up Cost: For additional healing, 0-4 Gnosis.

Effect: Gaia's regenerative power flows through your hands, knitting together flesh and bone. Your touch heals one Health Level of damage, plus one Health Level per success on the follow-up challenge, up to a limit of your permanent Gnosis, plus one for each additional Gnosis spent, on another living being. You can't heal yourself, spirits, or undead. In order to heal a non-Garou, you need to succeed at a Mental Challenge.

Name the Spirit

Activation Time: Normal

Required: A spirit within 50 feet on either side of the Gauntlet

Challenge: Mental vs. the spirit

Retest: Investigation

Follow-up Cost: (optional) one Willpower

Effect: Your eyes see into the very essence of a spirit, telling you its type and its approximate levels of Rage, Gnosis and Willpower. If you spend a Willpower Trait as well, you also sense the spirit's true name, which can be useful for summoning or tracking it.

Sense Chiminage

Activation Time: Normal

Challenge: Social vs. target

Retest: Subterfuge

Follow-up Cost: (optional) three Social Traits

Effect: You sense the weight of spiritual obligation resting on the shoulders of any spirit-aware being. Success with this Gift means you discover the state of the target's outstanding debts to the spirit world. By paying the additional cost in Social Traits, you also discover the name of the spirit that this person has most recently offended.

Sense Weaver

Activation Time: Personal

Challenge: Mental vs. Storyteller difficulty based on intensity of Weaver influence (high intensity is low difficulty, low intensity is high difficulty)

Retest: Science or Investigation

Effect: A mystical sense not unlike a scent tells you whether the Weaver has reinforced anything in the area. This "Weaver-Taint" may mean there is a Weaver-servant nearby, or it may simply mean that an ordinary person attends a Weaver-designed church or keeps a very orderly house.

Sense Wyld

Activation Time: Personal

Challenge: Mental vs. Storyteller difficulty based on intensity of Wyld influence (high intensity is low difficulty, low intensity is high difficulty)

Retest: Enigmas or Investigation

Effect: A mystical sense not unlike a scent tells you whether the Wyld has changed anything in the area. This "Wyld-Taint" may mean there is a Wyld-spirit nearby, or it may simply mean that a random passerby employs Wyld-touched childcare or spends a lot of time in the verdant wilderness.

Sense Wyrm

Activation Time: Personal

Challenge: Mental vs. Storyteller difficulty based on intensity of Wyrm influence (high intensity is low difficulty, low intensity is high difficulty)

Retest: Occult or Investigation

Effect: A mystical sense not unlike a scent tells you whether the Wyrm has corrupted anything in the area. This "Wyrm-Taint" may mean there is an enemy nearby, or it may simply mean that an innocent bystander ate Wyrm-manufactured food or works at a spite-filled office.

Sight From Beyond

Activation Time: Reflexive

Effect: You sometimes receive cryptic visions of important events in the near future. These visions are always shrouded in metaphor and dream symbology: a wheeling owl might signify a death, a writhing pool of leeches could indicate vampires, and drops of your own blood could signify family or packmates. The Storytellers will give you these visions. They might permit you a Mental Challenge (retest with Enigmas) to interpret the vision if they feel like it's especially cryptic.

Spirit Knife

Activation Time: Personal

Required: An ordinary melee weapon you made yourself (not a fetish or weapon created by Reshape Object); a Gauntlet equal or less than your permanent Gnosis rating

Activation Cost: One Gnosis

Effect: You imbue your chosen weapon with the ability to inflict damage on both sides of the Gauntlet. For the duration, as long as the Gauntlet is equal or less than your permanent Gnosis, your weapon can deal damage to targets on either side of the Gauntlet. This doesn't give you any special ability to see across the Gauntlet, unfortunately, so some assistance or foreknowledge in that department is helpful.

Duration: One Scene or Hour

Spirit Skin

Activation Time: Personal

Required: The gift only works in the Umbra

Activation Cost: One Gnosis

Effect: You hide your flesh nature, disguising yourself as a spirit to all mystical senses. By default, you cloak yourself as a wolf-spirit, taking on the appearance of your Lupus form. With some effort you can imitate other spirits, but this is not at all a robust disguise: it doesn't give you any new spirit capabilities, and you're still recognizable to anyone who knows you. ("Billy? It's you, isn't it! I'd know those eyes anywhere...") Theurges find this Gift most useful to blend in with unfamiliar spirits or avoid notice from spirits who don't know them.

Duration: One Scene or Hour

Spirit Snare (W20)

Activation Time: Normal

Activation Cost: One Gnosis

Challenge: Mental v. target spirit

Retest: Occult

Effect: You weave a net around the targeted spirit; if the challenge is successful, the spirit's Willpower is considered 2 lower for all combat related actions.  A Spirit may only be affected by one Spirit Snare at a time.

Duration: One scene or hour.

Spirit Speech

Activation Time: Automatic

Effect: You understand spirit languages used around you, and you can communicate back in kind.  Because relatively few spirits can communicate in the werewolf High Tongue (let alone human speech), this gift is absolutely invaluable for Garou of the Theurge auspice.

The Spirits' Displeasure

Activation Time: Normal

Activation Cost: One Gnosis, and burn a small effigy of the target

Frequency: You may only have one curse active at a time per target.

Challenge: Static Social vs. target

Retest: Occult

Effect: You levy a minor curse against the target, a warning that they have offended the spirits. The target will automatically fail one challenge of the Storytellers' choosing. The target sees an omen of bad luck appropriate to their culture that informs them the failure was not chance.

Duration: The effect takes place within the current story

Umbral Tether 

Activation Time: Personal

Required: You are in the Umbra

Activation Cost: One Gnosis each hour you maintain the tether

Effect: You spin a strand like spider silk behind you as you explore dangerous realms in the Umbra, allowing you to retrace your steps. While you are usually the only Garou who can see your tether, some perceptive spirits of Gaffling strength or better can notice it -- and if they're mischievous, they might cut it or alter it.

Blurring the Mirror (W20)

Activation Time: Normal

Activation Cost: One Gnosis per target

Effect: The difficulty for each target to cross the Gauntlet is increased by five. If this would raise the difficulty above ten, the target must both spend a Gnosis and make a Gnostic challenge vs difficulty 10 in order to step sideways, with the usual results for failure.

Duration: One scene or hour.

Castigate

Activation Time: Normal

Required: The target has offended the spirits. Rebuke your Garou target loudly, calling out those offenses; they must hear you.

Activation Cost: One Gnosis

Challenge: Social vs. a Garou target

Retest: Intimidation

Effect: Your stinging verbal rebuke strips the spirits' favor from a Garou, revoking their right to call upon a bit of the spirits' power. They lose access to a Gift of your choice for the duration, or until they make amends to the spirits or to the Nation. If you cannot correctly state the target's offenses to the spirits (as judged by the Storytellers), the Gift may fail automatically and rebound against you.

Duration: The remainder of the story

Evocation of Ceremony

Activation Time: Unique

Required: You are performing a ritual.

Challenge: Static Social Challenge vs. number of onlookers

Retest: Rituals

Effect: You enhance the sense of the sacred around the rituals you cast, evoking wonder, reverence or even fear in the onlookers and participants. If this gift is successfully performed in conjunction with a basic Rite, all Garou participants and onlookers gain one temper (Rage, Gnosis or Willpower) of the Ritemaster's choice. If this gift is done with an Intermediate Ritual, the Ritemaster picks 2 different Tempers to bestow. With an advanced Ritual, this gift grants one of each temper. These tempers may take a Garou over their normal cap, and Rage gained in this way does not cause a Garou to test for frenzy. If the Rite in question is a punishment Rite, the punished subject does NOT benefit from this gift. Further, a Garou can only benefit from this gift once per session.

Duration: the duration of the performance of the rite

Exorcism

Activation Time: Normal

Activation Cost: One Gnosis

Challenge: Social vs. the owner of the fetish, object, or person the spirit resides in, or for unbound spirits the spirit itself.

Retest: Intimidation

Effect: You break the bond between the spirit and the object, person, or place it is bound to, forcing it to leave. Fetishes lose their spiritual power, becoming ordinary objects. Fomori, once the possessing bane is ejected, die (unless a very powerful healer can somehow preserve the host's life through the process). For spirits not inside of items or people the spirit is forced to leave the area.

Grasp the Beyond

Activation Time: Normal

Required: A firm grasp on the target (may require a Physical Challenge).

Activation Cost: One to three Willpower

Challenge: vs. an Object: Normal Stepping Sideways challenge (retest Primal Urge) or Gnosis expenditure.

vs. an unwilling target, make a stepping sideways challenge (retest Primal Urge) but cannot spend Gnosis. The unwilling target may spend a defensive Willpower to force an additional retest.

Effect: You may pull objects in and out of the spirit world without using the Rite of Talisman Dedication first to attune them to your own spirit. You may even bring companions along who cannot ordinarily access the Umbra at all. Take firm hold, spend the Willpower cost (One for pocket sized items, two for backpack sized items, and three for large items or other people), and make a standard challenge to enter or leave the Umbra (or, as usual, pay a Gnosis to do so. If the target is unwilling, you must win a Willpower challenge against them as well. If successful, you take the objects or passengers with you as you cross the Gauntlet. Unfortunates who get left in the spirit world without any means of their own to return will face a harrowing journey to a place with a low Gauntlet (three or less) to find their way out again; if they cannot do this, they eventually turn into spirit matter themselves.

Placation

Activation Time: Personal

Challenge: Static Mental vs. 11 Traits

Retest: Occult

Effect: You empathically share in a moment of a spirit's displeasure, gaining an accurate sense of what the spirit will require to placate that anger. You can use this gift on your own behalf, or for others, but unless the object of the spirit's wrath is present to pay their debt, the spirit is likely to require a stiffer chiminage than otherwise.

Prophecy

Activation Time: Unique; Five minutes of meditation in-game.

Activation Cost: Optional 1-5 Mental Traits

Effect: Similar to Sight from Beyond, this gift grants you visions of the future. Consult the Storytellers before taking this gift, as its effect is entirely up to their whim. This gift offers more detailed, significant visions than Sight from Beyond, but they are every bit as enigmatic. In addition, if you would be subjected to a surprise attack, you may spend up to 5 mental traits. For each mental trait spent this way you  may activate one gift, fetish or talen (including any associated costs), with the limitation that you cannot move or cross the gauntlet. The additional costs are not subject to the rules of spending rage and gnosis in the same round, as they are assumed to have been activated in prior rounds as you recognize signs from your prophecy of impending danger. Fetishes and talens activated this way must be activated by spending gnosis. 

Duration: The session

Pulse of the Invisible

Activation Time: At Will

Challenge: None if the Gauntlet is equal or less than your permanent Gnosis rating; a Static Mental vs. the Gauntlet if it's higher

Retest: Primal Urge

Effect: Your mystical senses transcend the Gauntlet. You see nearby Umbral spirits even when you are on Earth. You can interact with these spirits as if you were in the Umbra. 

Duration: One scene, hour, or the Gauntlet increases.

Shadow Play

Activation Time: Normal

Requirement: You can take no action but pantomiming the movement of the shadow while you use this gift.

Activation Cost: One Gnosis

Effect: You lend form to your own shadow, sending it to do your bidding. It manifests with your current Physical/Social/Mental Traits, Ability Traits and Health Levels. It has no Rage, Gnosis or Willpower; it has no Gifts and does not benefit from Gifts, Fetishes or Talens you are using. By focusing on acting out what you want your shadow to do, you can send it away to perform tasks for you, including combat.

Duration: Until you take an action other than pantomiming the shadow's actions.

Spirit Blossom (W20)

Activation Time: Unique

Required: Must plant a portion of the Garou’s body for one week.

Activation Cost: 2 Gnosis

Challenge: Extended Gnostic challenge vs 6

Retest: Primal Urge, see Effect

Frequency: Once per session, see Effect

Effect: A Garou with this sows a piece of themself into the land and fertilizes it with their gnosis. After a week, the blood, fur, or another piece of their body sprouts into a plant of the Garou’s choice. This plant is bound to the Garou and collects gnosis for them. Once per day the Garou may retrieve Gnosis by waking the plant, perform an extended Gnostic challenge vs 6 traits, retest Primal urge. For each success the Garou may retrieve one Gnosis from the plant. This kind of bond is not without risks though, should the plant ever be destroyed the Garou takes unsoakable lethal damage equal to their permanent Gnosis. A Garou may only have one Spirit Blossom at a time.

Spirit Drain

Activation Time: Normal

Challenge: Extended Gnostic vs. target spirit's Gnosis

Retest: Occult

Effect: You siphon off a spirit's power to fuel your own strength of will. Engage the target spirit in an extended Gnostic challenge. For every success, the spirit loses one essence; you gain one Willpower. You may gain up to 1.5 times your permanent Willpower in this fashion. Any Willpower you gain that exceed your rank maximum are lost after the duration.

Duration: The scene

Spirit Path

Activation Time: Personal

Required: A spirit's true name (usually gained via Name the Spirit)

Activation Cost: One Gnosis

Challenge: Mental vs. the spirit's location (8 Traits in the penumbra, 12 in a near Realm, 15 in a deep Realm)

Retest: Enigmas

Effect: If you know a spirit's name, you know the spirit's location in the Umbra. You focus on its name and gain a precise sense of just where it is, wherever that may be.

Ultimate Argument of Logic

Activation Time: Normal

Required: You are explaining a topic covered by one of the Abilities Occult, Science, Spirit Lore or Umbra Lore.

Challenge: Mental vs. target

Retest: The Ability that covers what you're explaining

Effect: When you discuss the mysteries of existence, your words take on a supernatural power to persuade -- whether or not they are entirely true. You convince your target of a new "fact" you have explained, as long as that knowledge is covered by one of the Abilities Occult, Science, Spirit Lore or Umbra Lore. E.g., church bells repel faeries (Occult), alcohol is a deadly poison (Science), Unicorn is one of Fenris' brood (Spirit Lore), or there is no such realm as the Abyss (Umbra Lore).

Duration: Until the end of the session, or until your target sees evidence that contradicts your explanation.

Umbral Camouflage (W20)

Activation Time: Normal

Activation Cost: One Gnosis

Effect: Although perfectly visible to all others, this gift renders you undetectable to spirits.  You may move about as normal, but attacking will end the effects of the gift.

Duration: One scene, or until you take a hostile action.

Umbral Sight

Activation Time: At Will

Effect: Works the same as Pulse of the invisible

Umbral Tracking

Activation Time: Normal

Activation Cost: One Gnosis

Effect: You gain the ability to see others' Umbral Tethers (as described in the basic Theurge Gift of the same name). You can't tell whose they are, but you can determine which direction leads to the Garou maintaining them. You may even make a Physical Challenge versus a tether's creator, retest Occult, to violently break the thread. The other Garou becomes aware of your attempt regardless of whether you succeed or fail.

Watchful Eyes (W20)

Activation Time: Personal

Activation Cost: 1 Gnosis

Effect: The Garou uses a gnosis to beckon the local spirit population to watch their engagement. The spirits do not need to directly interact, their presence alone adds an impressive and mystical aura to the Garou. The Garou gains a retest on social challenges in the umbra and areas where the Gauntlet is less than 6. Lastly, spirits capable of interacting with the scene are more likely to assist the Garou, unless they are Wyrm spirits.

Duration: One scene

Web Walker

Activation Time: Personal (Movement)

Required: You must be capable of moving at least one step.

Activation Cost: Two Gnosis (or only one Gnosis if you're a Glass Walker)

Effect: You travel through the Umbra along the Pattern Web as if it were a moon bridge. It takes one percent of your usual travel time to use this bridge (so if you can run a six-minute mile, you can travel a mile by Pattern Web in three seconds). You can spend a third Gnosis to pull up to two other garou along with you.

Feral Lobotomy

Activation Time: Normal

Activation Cost: Two Gnosis

Challenge: Extended Static Mental vs. target's Mental Traits plus three

Retest: Empathy

Follow-up Cost: 0 or more permanent Gnosis

Effect: You strip reason itself out of a victim's mind, reducing them to their animal instincts. Each success you win on the extended Challenge destroys one of the target's Mental Traits (your choice). These Traits will not return for the duration of the effect. You cannot reduce your victim to less than one Mental Trait. Your victim becomes more and more animalistic as he loses more and more Traits this way.

Duration: Game session. For each permanent Gnosis you spend, two Traits are destroyed permanently.

Healing the Soul

Activation Time: Unique

Required: Being sequestered with a willing target for a week

Activation Time: One week

Effect: This gift manifests as a week-long ordeal, requiring fasts, trances and ecstatic communication with the spirits. Once a willing target endures these trials, the forces of the Triat within their soul are restored to balance. The precise effect of this is up to the Storytellers, but it tends to ease emotional trauma and cure Derangements. It cannot heal Harano, but it can prevent it in the early stages. It cannot free a Silver Fang of their tribal disadvantage or remove the permanent madness of a Metis. If the target's own actions caused their own trauma, then they may never benefit from a use of this Gift again.

Poisoned Legacy

Activation Time: Normal

Required: Confront your target and speak a curse on them

Frequency: Once ever per target

Activation Cost: One Gnosis and one Willpower

Challenge: Extended Social vs. target (up to 6 successes)

Retest: Occult

Effect: You declare a permanent curse onto your victim, a stigma which will last the rest of their life -- which may now not be so long a life. The successes you earn on the challenge gives your victim the Cursed Flaw with the corresponding point value. If you gain six successes, they gain the Dark Fate Flaw instead. They gain no freebie points for these flaws. 

Duration: Permanent

The Malleable Spirit

Activation Time: Normal

Challenge: Static Gnosis challenge vs. difficulty based on effect (see below) or the spirit's Gnosis, whichever is higher

Retest: Occult/ Spirit: Essence

Effect: You reconstruct the very essence of a spirit, changing its nature according to your own needs. Changing the spirit's disposition toward you (friendly, neutral or hostile) has a minimum difficulty of 8 Traits; changing its Willpower, Rage or Gnosis has a minimum difficulty of 9 Traits to add or subtract a single Trait; and changing its deepest nature (Naturae, Bane, Elemental, etc.) has a difficulty of 15 Traits.

Duration: Permanent

Spirit Vessel

Activation Time: Normal

Frequency: Once per session

Activation Cost: One Gnosis

Challenge: Mental vs. twice the local Gauntlet

Retest: Occult

Follow-up Cost: Up to two additional Gnosis, each with an additional Mental challenges

Effect: You draw in the power of the local spirits, gaining a number of their Charms for your own use. If you succeed at the original test, you gain one Charm of your choice and you may pay Gnosis and test for up to two more Charms. If you fail the initial test, a Bane possesses you, and the Storytellers instruct you in what to do next.

Duration: One Scene or Hour
