The Ragabash were blessed by Luna with the wit to question rigid tradition and the cunning to use stealth and trickery against the Garou’s enemies. The New Moons’ Gifts allow them to get the job done in a clever, unconventional fashion.

Blur of the Milky Eye (Level One):

The Garou’s form becomes a shimmering blur, allowing him to pass unnoticed among others. Once the Garou has been seen, however, this Gift is negated until the viewer has again been distracted. A chameleon-spirit teaches this Gift.

Open Seal (Level One):

With this Gift, the Garou can open nearly any sort of closed or locked physical device. A raccoon-sprit teaches this Gift.

Scent of Running Water (Level One):

The Garou can mask her scent completely, making herself virtually impossible to track. A fox-spirit teaches this Gift.

Blissful Ignorance (Level Two):

 The Garou can become completely invisible to all senses, spirits or monitoring devices by remaining still. A chameleon-spirit teaches this Gift.

Sense of the Prey (Level Two):

 If he knows anything about his prey, the character can track it down as rapidly as he can travel. This unerring sense of direction operates anywhere, and it is useful for tracking spirits through the Umbra as well as finding beings on Earth. A wolf- or dog-spirit teach this Gift.

Taking the Forgotten (Level Two):

The Ragabash with this Gift can steal something from a target, and his victim will forget that she ever possessed the stolen item. A mouse-spirit teaches this Gift.

Gremlins (Level Three):

The Ragabash can cause a technological device to malfunction merely by touching it. This Gift actually disrupts the spirit energy within the device that aids its function. If the Garou can frighten the spirit sufficiently, it will flee the device, causing it to malfunction permanently. A Gremlin teaches this Gift.

Open Moon Bridge (Level Three):

 The Garou has the ability to open a moon bridge, with or without the permission of the totem of that caern. A Lune teaches this Gift.

Luna’s Blessing (Level Four):

When the moon is visible in the night sky, silver refuses to cause the Garou aggravated wounds. Indeed, if the moon waxes full, silver weapons may well turn on those who would wield them against the character. A Lune teaches this Gift.

Whelp Body (Level Four):

With this Gift a Garou may deliver a devastating curse upon a foe’s body, causing it to weaken or palsy. Many consider the use of this power on a foe to be a declaration of unending war. Either a pain-spirit or a spirit of disease teaches this Gift.

Thieving Talons of the Magpie (Level Five):

The Garou can steal the powers of others and use them herself. These powers can be Garou Gifts, spirit Charms, vampiric Disciplines, True Magic or any other such power. Naturally, a magpie-spirit teaches this Gift.

Thousand Forms (Level Five):

Most trickster archetypes are sharpshooters, and the Ragabash is no different. The Garou with this Gift may change herself into any animal between the sizes of a small bird and a bison. The Garou gains all the special powers (flight, gills, poison, sensory abilities, etc) of the animal she mimics. She may not take the form of the Wyrm-beasts (not that she would wish to!), but she may take the form of mythical beasts with some extra effort.
