Rite of Dansing - This Rite is the first step on the path of the Umbral Danser. The Nuwisha must fast for three full days after devouring peyote. During this time, the Nuwisha must recite all past experiences in battling the Wyrm, traveling the Umbra, and teaching other Changing Breeds the error of their ways.
System: One Gnosis is spent per day; at the end of the three days, the Nuwisha rolls Manipulation + Enigmas, difficulty 7. A success indicates the Nuwisha has been accepted by the Trickster and can purchase the Umbral Danser Gifts. Failure means the Nuwisha has not suitably impressed the Trickster yet and must wait another year.

(WW:Revised p161)

(WW:Revised p161)
Satire Rite (Punishment) - As the Garou Punishment Rite: Satire Rite.
(WW:Revised p163)
Rite of the Totem (Mystic) - As the Garou Mystic Rite: Rite of the Totem. This rite is used by the Nuwisha only to bind themselves to an aspect of Coyote.
(WW:Revised p161)
Level 4
Rite of the Dream Danse - This powerful rite allows the Nuwisha to know where all of the other Dream Dansers are in the Umbra and to communicate with them. This rite is a formal and solemn one for the Nuwisha and is used only when absolutely necessary.
(WWPG 2nd, p174)
Rite of Caern Concealment (Caern) - This rite requires no fewer than 10 Nuwisha working in conjunction. In earlier times, when the Europeans first came to the Pure Lands, the Nuwisha used the rite to hide all of the Breed's most powerful caerns. Once enacted, the Rite of Caern Concealment makes Nuwisha places of power invisible to all but the werecoyotes. While the Nuwisha haven't used the rite in over 70 years, their eldest still understand how the rite works.
System: This rite requires that 30 Gnosis points be spent. The ritemaster must achieve at least 15 successes on her Wits + Rituals roll before the Caern is properly hidden.
(WWPG 2nd, p174)
Level 5
Sing Back the Dead (Mystic) - Of the 100 Nuwisha on Earth, only one knows this rite at any given time. When the Nuwisha who knows it does or joins the Umbral Danse, Coyote Himself selects a new werecoyote to carry this rite. With it, the Nuwisha can call the dead back to life with a song. Just as Coyote is the only being who can teach this rite, only he can authorize its use. A Nuwisha who attempts this song without first gaining his explicit permission to restore the beings in question will surely die in the process.
System: The player spends on permanent Gnosis for each being that the character wishes to resurrect. In addition, mangled or dismembered bodies might require an additional permanent Gnosis expenditure, at the Storyteller's discretion.
