Rank 2 Wendigo Gift
Camp: Ghost Dance
Nunavut, to many Wendigo, remains a symbol of hope and preserved purity among Garou and Kinfolk alike. The Ghost Dance has always trusted in the power that tradition holds, and it reveres the perfect and simple ways that have been imparted from generation to generation. This Gift rewards any Garou who chooses to follow the path of the old ways rather than take a modern or Wyrmcomer shortcut. An ancestor-spirit teaches this Gift to the Camp of the Ghost Dance in Nunavut.
System: The player spends one Gnosis point, and then rolls Intelligence + Rituals, difficulty 6. If she succeeds, she may add one point to any ability roll she needs to make; she must be offered a choice between a human or Wyrmcomer way, and a Garou or Kinfolk way, both applicable to the same Ability — and consciously choose the Garou way. For example, a Wendigo who refuses penicillin, and chooses to fight an infection with a time-tested poultice of herbs and roots can add a point to her Medicine knowledge; a werewolf who leaves behind a nylon backpack, GPS, and freeze-dried food before a journey can add a point to her Survival skill. Similarly, a Garou who decides to travel on foot or by sled, instead of in a car or a snowmobile, can add a point to her Drive skill.
