Level 2, Gnosis 5 An old-fashioned steel lantern painted with bizarre and obscene glyphs, the Bane Lantern needs no fuel. The user simply commands it to ignite — in either Pictish, the garbled Garou-speak of the Black Spiral Dancers, or the secret tongue of the Wyrm — and it casts an unnatural purple light. The light illuminates all spirits it touches, making them quite visible even in the material world. Fomori and other possessed creatures look much the

same as normal, but their shadows reflect their spiritual passengers. While the lantern remains lit, spirits in the vicinity flock to the glow like moths to a flame.
