[ Powers of the Lupines ]

  With Gnosis comes mystical power: keen discernments, communion with Gaia,
ears for the whisperings of spirits.  More frightening are the effects brought
about when the subtleties of Gnosis are fused with the raw force of Rage.
Following is a list of powers which may be used by Lupines, along with a
numerical quantification of the level of Gnosis and Rage required for the use
of each.  Employment of these powers requires the expenditure of spiritual
energy; the discovery of precisely how much spiritual energy is something one
must undertake for oneself.

[ Pack Speech ]
  [ Gnosis      : ] 0
  [ Rage        : ] 0
  [ Command     : ] lupine <msg>, guild <msg>, ^<msg>
  [ Description : ] The tiniest iota of Gnosis enables a Lupine to participate
                    in the pack speech, a communication channel for all to use.

[ Continuing the Cycles ]
  [ Gnosis      : ] 8
  [ Rage        : ] 0
  [ Command     : ] sanctify remains
  [ Description : ] Invokes Gaia to bring any remains of mortal creatures
                    present at your location back unto Her bosom, where they
                    may continue the cycle of life with Her blessing.

[ Soothing the Savage Beast ]
  [ Gnosis      : ] 10
  [ Rage        : ] 0
  [ Command     : ] calm <creature>
  [ Description : ] Brings the serenity of Gaia to the being affected,
                    pulling it from the berserk rage that afflicts some
                    in combat -- notably Enraged Lupines.

[ Judgement of Balance ]
  [ Gnosis      : ] 12
  [ Rage        : ] 3
  [ Command     : ] judge <creature>
  [ Description : ] Allows one to sense the degree of Balance possessed by
                    the creature judged.

[ Stepping Sideways ]
  [ Gnosis      : ] 20
More: (33%) [return to continue] 

  [ Rage        : ] 0
  [ Command     : ] step sideways
  [ Description : ] Stepping sideways is a metaphor for a certain disjoining
                    with the world which one may use to go to a place without
                    traveling the intervening distance; it is used by Lupines
                    to return to the Glade of Gaia when in danger or need of
                    refuge.

[ the Razor Claws ]
  [ Gnosis      : ] 11
  [ Rage        : ] 19
  [ Command     : ] razor claws
  [ Description : ] The power of the Razor Claws invests your claws with the
                    ability to harm even those normally resistant to such
                    forms of attack.  This boon will last until the next time
                    you traverse the Delirium.

[ Revelation of Enchantment ]
  [ Gnosis      : ] 20
  [ Rage        : ] 0
  [ Command     : ] reveal enchantment
  [ Description : ] Causes magical objects present on oneself or in one's
                    environment to reveal themselves as such.  Though a good
                    deal of Gnosis is required to create the effect, it costs
                    one's spirit little.

[ Forest Armour ]
  [ Gnosis      : ] 23
  [ Rage        : ] 5
  [ Command     : ] forest armour
  [ Description : ] Causes the life of the forest to protect you, wrapping you
                    in an envelope of shielding vines and leaves, their ability
                    to defend enhanced by the power of your Gnosis.  It will
                    stay with you until you assume another form.

[ Luna's Vengeance ]
  [ Gnosis      : ] 15
  [ Rage        : ] 15
  [ Command     : ] invoke Luna's Vengeance
  [ Description : ] Reverence is also due Gaia's ancient friend and companion,
                    Luna, the moon, whose light aids Gaia in guiding us through
                    the Delirium.  Certain things offensive to Gaia trod upon
                    her green sward, things called undead, and these things
                    move by power stolen from Luna.  While bathed in her light,
                    you may call down her vengeance on these abominations with
                    this power.

[ Summoning of Spirits ]
  [ Gnosis      : ] 30
  [ Rage        : ] 5
  [ Command     : ] summon spirit
  [ Description : ] Enables one to summon a nature spirit to do one's bidding.
                    Only spirits of the plains, forest, and tundra may be
                    summoned, each will only come in its own terrain, and you
                    may only summon one spirit at a time.  To control these
                    spirits, tell or whisper your commands to them, or say
                    your commands in the format "spirit, <cmd>".  To banish
                    one, command it to begone.

[ Gaia's Peace ]
  [ Gnosis      : ] 35
  [ Rage        : ] 0
  [ Command     : ] bring peace
  [ Description : ] Sends out an aura of peacefulness with which one attempts
                    to cause combatants to cease their aggression.

[ Balancing of the Scales ]
  [ Gnosis      : ] 20
  [ Rage        : ] 20
  [ Command     : ] perform balancing of the scales on <creature>
  [ Description : ] Balancing of the Scales causes the creature designated to
                    be adjudged by the standards of Balance and treated
                    accordingly; those with equilibrium in their souls will
                    be healed, while those with unbalanced spirits will be
                    dealt grave harm.

[ the Banehowl ]
  [ Gnosis      : ] 15
  [ Rage        : ] 35
  [ Command     : ] banehowl
  [ Description : ] The Banehowl is a terrible ability that figures prominently
                    in legend; it is a howl that contains the power of all that
                    is tragic in the world, so potent that it draws the very
                    life from those who hear it.  Even the one who howls is
                    not unaffected.
