Malachite Wolfsbane Necklace

Level Two Fetish
Gnosis
Description
As its name suggests, this fetish is a small piece of the green stone malachite, shaped like a leaf and bound in pewter or gold. It is most potent when worn on a leather thong around the neck. When activated, this fetish causes extreme fear in all wolf and wolf-like creatures. No wolf or Garou in lupus form can approach, and must immediately make a Willpower roll against the fetish's Gnosis or suffer a Fox Frenzy. Garou in Hispo form may approach, but must make a similar Willpower roll to do so. Even Crinos Garou must spend a Willpower point to take any action which may put themselves within touching distance to the wielder (combat, etc.). Changing into any of these forms while wearing this fetish is possible, but the wearer must spend two Willpower points and make a Gnosis roll against the fetish in order to keep from Fox Frenzying (which, if induced, will continue until the Garou drops from exhaustion or the activation wears off -- twelve hours). Notes: Red Talons consider this fetish and others like it to be cursed, and will not allow anyone known to possess one within their caerns.
