Scouring is a set of Gifts specific to the Pure Tribe, the Ivory Claws. It represents their relationship to the Purity Renown and the benediction of Silver Wolf. The core idea of purity is that un-alike things should not mix. Silver Wolf and his servants demand adherence to that principle. These Gifts are most commonly taught by eagle-spirits.
Powers[]
Sense The Impure: This Gift allows the Ivory Claw to determine the purity of a subject's blood - or a substance - merely by scent.- Relentless Focus: The Uratha using this Gift gains intense focus on whatever actions are most important to him, and only the greatest of temptations or distractions can gain his attention. This Gift can be used only once per day.
- Purity: This Gift can ensure that there is no poison in a drink, change 14kt gold into 24kt gold or drive dangerous gases from a room. Although the Gift is magical in nature, Purify obeys the laws of chemistry: Purify will not break a molecular compound apart, but only perform a physical change.
- Expel: This Gift pushes all parasitic or symbiotic life forms out of a living creature (including animals, humans and Uratha). Unfortunately, this Gift does not discriminate between beneficial symbiote and parasite (Microorganisms that help to digest food). Expel does not work on magical diseases, viruses or prion-based diseases. It cannot expel a spirit from a host body, though the Gift can force out a supernatural parasite with a material form.
- Cast Out: Cast Out drives a possessing spirit from its subject. The Gift is painful for both the Uratha who uses it, the spirit the Uratha targets with the Gift and their person possessed by the spirit. The use of Cast Out is a sure way for an Ivory Claw to make a long-term enemy out of the spirit she targets.
