New Garou Gifts (Werewolf: The Apocalypse)

Unique Garou gifts:

These gifts are hardly unique to the characters presented in the Working Stiffs pack they are just not very common. feel free to use them if you find a use for them.

Vast Indifference  
Cost n/a Roll n/a Bone Gnawer gift level 2

Taught by concrete elementals, this gift allows the Bone Gnawer to add his full gnosis score to his willpower for the purposes of resisting emotional manipulations.(such as Presence.) and half of his gnosis for the purposes of resisting direct mental control (Like Dominate) Note that this gift does not protect the Garou on the instinctual level so gifts like Roll over and Staredown might still work but mind magick and many Galliard gifts will probably be negated. Often used by Rosalie to turn aside the annoyance of Vampires who come into her store and feel like they can act as they please.

Work like Mad
Cost 1 rage, BG gift 1

Taught by rage spirits, this enables a Garou to channel some of his rage into a repetitive physical task thus cutting the time to do that task to 1/2 of its normal time. The Garou must spend one rage pt and the gift last for one scene for each point of stamina the Garou possesses. The work cannot be of a complex nature and is thus most suited to ditch-digging, dishwashing, and other heavily physical work. This gift is often used by Steam Burns Paws as a way to channel some of his rage into a useful constructive path. It also enables him to be among his human co-workers without killing them.

Goad 
Cost 1 rage Ragabash level 2 gift (Nuwisha may also have this gift, in their case, cost is 1 Gnosis)

Roll: as Taunt maneuver

Enables a Ragabash to taunt an opponent into a blinding rage like with the Taunt combat maneuver but without making any outward sign whatsoever. For each rage point that the Ragabash chooses to spend, he reduces his taunt diff by 2. Taught by coyote spirits. Used by Fries-With-That? to drive managers and fellow workers into paroxysms of lathering wall-punching fury and still look innocent.

Temporary Lucidity 
1 gnosis Theurge gift level 2 (Gurahl may also have this gift)

Taught by a spirit of Healing or a Lune, This gift enables the Theurge to bless a target with a lucidity that he does not already possess whether as the result of insanity, chemical imbalances, or drug use. (It should be noted that those affected by spirits must be handled differently) The Theurge must spend a point of Gnosis and must kiss the recipient on the forehead. This Lucidity lasts for a full turn of the moon.(by which time the target may seek more permanent help.) This gift has no effect on mental or emotional control powers of any sort but can mitigate some of their effects. Rosalie uses this gift as a way to keep the weirdo traffic in her store down.
