Werewolf: The Forsaken - Blank It

victim if it still wishes to act. Use of this Numen creates
a Ridden, specifically a Spirit-Claimed (p. 282).
• Discorporation: This Numen allows a spirit to
discorporate voluntarily, surrendering its Corpus to the
Shadow Realm, and allowing itself to reform elsewhere as
normal. Many spirits choose this route rather than facing
a greater spirit in combat, with the risk of permanent
destruction such conflict carries. Roll the spirit’s Power +
Resistance for this Gift to succeed.
• Fetter: This Numen secures a spirit inside an
object once it has crossed the Gauntlet into the physical
world. Rather than materializing, the spirit remains its
ephemeral self in the material world. Normally, it would
be sucked back through the Gauntlet within a few hours,
but once fettered, it can remain in the physical world
almost indefinitely. Once through the Gauntlet, the spirit
activates this Numen by spending a point of Essence. It
must choose an object within five meters of its current
position and spend an additional Essence to fetter itself
to the object. The spirit can stay fettered in the material
world for as long as it likes, unless the fetter is destroyed,
in which case the spirit immediately discorporates and
starts to re-form back in the spirit world. This Numen
cannot be used across the Gauntlet without the use of the
Reaching Numen.
The spirit is invisible and intangible while in the
material world. It can be seen by werewolves and other
spiritually sensitive creatures only. The spirit may never
move more than five meters from its fetter, lest the link be
lost, forcing the spirit back through the Gauntlet. A fettered
spirit may materialize, if it has that Numen. While
in material form, it may move more than five meters from
its fetter, but it must be back within that radius when its
materialization ends.
• Gauntlet Breach: This Numen allows a spirit to
push itself through the Gauntlet, much like an Uratha
stepping sideways. This isn’t a natural or easy thing for a
fleshless entity, but it’s the most reliable way to enter the
physical world. Indeed, unless the spirit fetters itself (using
that Numen), it can remain in the material world for only
a matter of hours. Spend three Essence and roll Power +
Finesse to force the spirit through the Gauntlet. Every
hour that the spirit spends unfettered or in “Twilight” in
the material world costs it one Essence per Rank, as its
ephemera is sucked back through the Gauntlet. When
it runs out of Essence, it discorporates, re-forming in the
Shadow as normal. It can, however, choose to return
through the Gauntlet freely at any time.
• Harrow: This Numen is typically associated with
spirits of negative emotions, such as fear or wrath. The
spirit can focus its negative resonance to create a crippling
attack of its associated emotional state in an enemy.
Spend a point of Essence and roll the spirit’s Power +
Finesse, contested by the victim’s Resolve + Composure.
If the spirit wins the contest, the target is overwhelmed by
the relevant emotional state for a number of turns equal to
the number of successes the spirit gained.
