City is a set of affinity Gifts for Forsaken that focuses on the city as an ally in the hunt. Building- and road-spirits teach these Gifts, as do the spirits of urban animals.
Powers[]
City Eyes: The Uratha using this Gift places her hand to one window of a building and communes with the building's spirit to see everything its eyes (Windows) can with perfect clarity.- Word on the Street: The werewolf using this Gift touches the blacktop lightly and allows his Essence to flow through to the spirit of the road. The werewolf may delve into the road's "memory" in such a fashion.
- Gridlock: The werewolf reaches out into the spirit of his city and breaks the lines of escape around his prey. Busses never arrive. Traffic is jammed solid. Subway trains do not stop at any platform the target waits at. Rubble and trash snare the prey's feet, if a crowd doesn't form to block his way through. The werewolf must know roughly where his prey is and must be in the same city for this Gift to work. This Gift can be used only in an urban environment.
- City Running: The city arranges things between the werewolf and his destination to ensure a direct path that is much faster than walking. Fire escapes drop at just the right time for the werewolf to grab, buildings seem to lean closer to catch him when he may fall short and balconies are just where he needs them to be for a perfect landing. A werewolf with this Gift is the fastest predator in any city, capable of outpacing cars and trains, but must run over roofs and leap between buildings.
- Urban Chaos: This Gift allows an Uratha to direct the anger of a suddenly very active city against its population. Fire hydrants explode like cannon shells, streetlights over-charge and ground out through people and windows shatter, raining razor shards of glass as the city seeks to reclaim its streets.
