Fianna

Trible Gifts

Basic Gifts

Resist Toxin ~ The Garou may call upon incredible recuperative powers to stop diseases and poisons that may enter her body. When affected (or infected) by a toxin or disease, the Garou may spend a Gnosis Trait to cancel the effects of the invading substance. In the case of extremely potent or magical diseases or toxins, the Storyteller may call for a Physical Challenge of some sort.

Persuasion ~ As the Homid Gift.

Intermediate Gifts

Howl of the Banshee ~ The Garou issues a terrifying howl that evokes a primal fear in everyone nearby. This power costs one Gnosis Trait to use. When used, each individual within twenty feet must win or tie in a Simple Test (at no cost to the user of the Gift) or flee in terror. The victims may stop their flight once they’re out of sight of the Garou, but they may not approach her for the next ten minutes. Any assault on the victim cancels this effect. If a victim expends a Willpower Trait, she does not need to flee and is not affected by this Gift for the rest of the night or session.

Faerie Kin ~ By expending a Gnosis Trait, the Garou may issue a call to a spirit whose name she knows or one with which she has become very familiar. The Spirit Keeper (one of the Narrators) must be contacted to use this Gift. The spirit is under no obligation to come unless the Garou also risks Social Traits in the Gift. In this case, the spirit must win a Social Challenge to resist to Gift. Whether faeries or changelings will respond to this is up to the Storyteller.

Woadling ~ The Garou has learned the art of the ancient Celtic symbols and runes of war. By painting them on his body, the Garou may bewilder and confuse his foes when fighting in close quarters. The power lasts for ten minutes and costs a Gnosis Trait to use. While the Gift is effect, the first melee wound landed by an opponent has no effect. This Gift works only once on each opponent per use of the Gift. The effects of this Gift are not cumulative, and it can only be used in Homid form - - the effects are immediately canceled if the Garou assumes any other form. The player must mark her face with obviously visible markings to use this Gift.

Faerie Blood ~ The Garou can mystically alter her blood to that of a faerie. While this negates the normal penalties to silver, the Garou now suffers the same penalties from iron. The Gift costs a Gnosis Trait to use and lasts for fifteen minutes.

Advanced Gifts

Troll’s Bridge ~ The Garou can set up small, enclosed area as a last line of defense. Examples include the end of a hall, a small room or closet, or a ditch or gully. The Gift costs a Gnosis Trait to use. To enter the area, attackers must first spend one appropriate Physical Trait and win a Simple Test, but after they do so, they may enter and leave the area unhindered. The effects last for one hour and the effects of repeated invocations are not cumulative.

Balor’s Gaze ~ The Garou can evoke mind-numbing pain in a target merely by glancing at him. The Garou must spend one Gnosis Trait and one Rage Trait and defeat the target in a Mental Challenge to use this Gift. If successful, she may try to win a Simple Test, and if she does, she may try to win another until she loses or ties. Depending on the number of tests won (including he initial test), the target takes on the following penalties:

Two Tests Hurt

Four Tests Injured

Six Tests Incapacitated

The subject does not suffer any actual wounds from the use of this Gift, just the associated penalties. Powers that negate wound penalties are equally effective against this Gift. Furthermore, if in danger of attack, the victim may spend a Willpower Trait to shake off the effects for a single conflict. The effects of Gift last for fifteen minutes and are not in any way cumulative.

Gift of the Spriggan ~ The Garou can grow to enormous size with the use of this Gift, increasing his ability to take and receive damage. To use this power, the Garou must spend two Gnosis Traits. She then grows to twice her normal size. She gains an additional wound level and causes an additional wound level when she hits an opponent with a melee attack. The Garou may only use this power on herself once. The effects of this Gift last for ten minutes.
