System: When this is activated and a Gnosis point expended, the Shuckstone allows the Garou to enhance the unnerving qualities of her howl, causing fear amongst the local populace. The sound can be heard for an unusually long way -- several miles on a still night -- and is very distinctive. It sounds halfway between a dog's baying howl and the long, drawn-out howl of a mournful wolf. It must be used out of sight and only at night -- otherwise it will remain inert and have no effect. Occasionally used in the British Isles, the rural populace have been known to bar their doors and shutter their windows, huddling down and muttering dark tales about 'the Black Shuck', a legendary monster from which the stone gets its name.
Spirit: A dog or wolf-spirit is used for this fetish, or a spirit of fear or intimidation.
