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.

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.
