Gifts

Black Spiral Dancer Philodox have access to the same Gifts as their Gaian counterparts, with the exception of Fangs of Judgment.

• Acid Talons (Level One) — The Black Spiral

Dancer’s claws become a vibrant mixture of black, red, and yellow, and burn anything they cut. A Wakshaani teaches this Gift.

System

The player spends one point of Rage. For the rest of the scene, the werewolf’s claw attacks inflict one extra die of damage, and the difficulty to soak her claw attacks rises by 1.

• Omen Claws (Level Five) — The Black Spiral

Dancer’s claws become blades of anti-light, the area sur­ rounding them suffused with a false glow as a contrast to their nullity. Anyone struck by these terrible claws suf­ fers visions of the Apocalypse. An avatar of the Maeljin teaches this Gift.

System

The player spends one point of Gnosis and rolls her character’s Rage. The Gift’s effects last for one turn per success. Any character that takes damage from Omen Claws must roll Willpower against a difficulty of the Dancer’s (Gnosis + levels of damage inflicted, maximum 9) or be incapacitated by nightmare visions of everything they love tortured by the talons of the Wyrm. The victim cannot do anything when so af­ flicted, and loses one point of Willpower per turn. The victim’s player may attempt another Willpower roll to break free each turn.
