Eagle Comentary: Eagle is the highest-flying bird in the sky, and so comes close to heaven. He faces the rising sun at dawn and is lord of the highest peaks. Eagle is proud, solitary, and sees everything that happens on the Earth over which he flies. Enviroment: Mountains Advantages: +2 dice to detection spells. +2 dice for conjuring wind spirits. Disadvantages: An Eagle shaman will not tolerate evil or ignoble actions. He is a fierce defender of the land and the purity of nature, with a strong distrust of technology and its tools. Polluters and other who would damage the land for profit are Eagle's enemies, and he will brave any danger to defeat them. Double all power losess caused by adding cyberware, because of the psycological impact this has on the Eagle shaman. Wolf Comentary: Wolf is the hunter and warrior. He is brother to all his pack, and fiercly loyal to his mate and

cubs. As the ancient saying goes, Wolf wins every fight but one, and in that one, he dies. Enviroment: Forest, Prairie, or Mountains Advantages: +2 dice to detection and combat spells. +2 dice for conjuring forest or prairie spirits. Disadvantages: A Wolf shaman is loyal to his friends and family until death. Nothing can make him betray those bonds. He will not show cowardice. When a Wolf shaman extends his protection to another or otherwise accepts a responsibility, nothing will make him betray that bond. Hoever, Wolf can go berserk when wounded. Whenever a Wolf shaman is wounded, he must make a willpower test with a target number equall to his wound condition. He will go berserk for 3 turns, minus 1 turn for every success. A berserk shaman will attack the closest living thing, using his most powerful weapons (either magical or physical). If the shaman kills or incapacitates an enemy, or when the time is up, he snaps out of it. Leopard Comentary: Leopard is solitary, hunting by day or night. He uses stealth to take his prey unaware, then strikes swiftly with power. Leopard does not kill wantonly he takes the weak and the sick to preserve the eternal balance. Enviroment: Desert, Forest, Prairie, or Mountains Advantages: +2 dice to combat spells. +2 dice for conjuring prairie spirits. Disadvantages: A Leopard shaman has two, pride, and stubborness. When insulted or forced to do something the shaman will resist and take vengence if possible, even at his own expense stopping just short of suicide. Add +1 to target numbers when engaging in group sorcery because of Leopard's indiviualist nature. CONJOURING Summoning Daemons Both Shamans and Mages can summon a Daemon so long as they have the proper ritual formula. The beings conjured are actualy the astral projections of alien creatures from what is thought to be alternate dimensions or other worlds. Daemons are not actualy good or evil but have inhumman thoughts and values which usually conflict with normal morals or ethics. Summoning Daemons is a difficult and dangerous activity that is not reconmended for any but the most powerful and

experianced shamans or mages. The difficulty lies in the nessecity of using a specific formula for each individual Daemon or type of Daemon, any variation of the formula will produce failure or bizzare results. The greatest danger is in controling the Daemon, the summoning formula does not usually inculde the binding formula which is even more exacting. The force, form, and powers of Daemons are fixed, determined by the particular being summoned, if the Daemons force is unkown this also adds a dangerous element of uncertainty to the summoning.
