This is a subset of House_Rules/Shifter, split out due to length.

For Fera, we prefer "Players Guide To The Changing Breeds" (WW3807). The individual breed books are used for things WW3807 does not specify.

Breed Can swipe? Reference
Bastet Yes, 7*level XP for auspice/aspect gifts PGttCB 67
Corax Yes PGttCB 80
Kitsune Interpreted as yes PGttCB 100
Mokole Via month-long Mnesis trance
  • You can still RP normally during that month
  • Mnesis vs 9 (10 for level 4+ gifts), must get at least as many successes as gift level
  • 'Lost' gifts (e.g. extinct splat) limited at staff discretion, diff 10
Mokole 79
Others No (if we missed something, please inform staff)

Fera learning gifts from Garou or other breeds:

  • Gifts explicitly repeated in PGttCB or the breed book are allowed as normal.
  • Nuwisha can learn Garou homid/lupus/Ragabash gifts at the same cost as a Garou Ragabash of their breed. (PGttCB 135)
  • Ratkin can learn Bone Gnawer gifts that are taught by rat spirits. (PGttCB 144)
  • "Swiping" gifts is done at out-of-group costs (5 XP per dot). Others are at in-group costs (3 XP per dot) except as noted. Must still have Shifter Rank at least as high as gift level.

Fera may spend points on a personal or pack totem appropriate to their breed (staff discretion). See the Fera subsection of Totem for more details.

Ananasi

All Ananasi are assumed to know Rite of Spinning (level 1) and Tapping Ananasa's Wisdom (level 2) for free, but must still have an equal/greater level of the Rituals knowledge to actually perform them.

Bastet

Yava: See '+rules yava'.

Corax

Corax do have kinfolk. The Spirit Egg thing is in addition to breeding with them, not instead of. (PGttCB 79)

Gurahl

  • Gurahl can advance to a new auspice once each month (proper ritual required). This is a change from the previous rule that linked the change to new Rank earned.
  • Rip Van Winkle lets you buy gifts from your past auspice(s) at the in-auspice XP cost. This does not apply to Early Maturation, as you skipped auspices rather than going through them in backstory.

Kitsune

  • Kitsune do not have a claw attack in any form. They may not take any Gifts that require a Claw Attack.
  • Eji Path starting gifts have been updated. Falling Touch has replaced Razor Claws.

Nuwisha

3-dot Umbral Affinity gives -3 difficulty. (Reflective surface stuff was from 2nd ed, when Garou absolutely needed one.)

Ratkin

Dredge the Spirit World (Ratkin 121):

  • Gnosis vs Gauntlet to pierce it, then Gnosis vs 6-8 (similar to Rite of Summoning).
  • Wraiths: Gnosis vs Shroud, then Gnosis vs 9. Success summons a specific PC wraith only if they want to be, otherwise it summons a NPC wraith.

Wyrm-corrupting a Plague Lord (e.g. having them Dance the Spiral) only lasts one month, though side effects (e.g. derangements) remain. (Ratkin 89-90)
