Show Some Spirit
The idea that spirits are associated with animals, locations, and natural forces is widespread. Shamans, medicine men, channelers, and other spirit-workers of cultures that hold such beliefs don't merely communicate with these entities – they invite possession, sometimes physically transforming into something else for the duration. This is a path to great power, but it isn't without risk and it demands profound respect.
GURPS Powers: Totems and Nature Spirits looks at how to represent such practices within the framework of GURPS Powers. Contents include:
- Explanations of what totems are, who can call upon them, and how to invoke them.
- Notes on traits suitable for spirit-workers, including general advice on spirit powers of all kinds.
- Rules for the key ability, Totem-Bearer – including 28 sample totems and 17 archetypal roles for them to fill.
- Lists of traits these totems grant to those they "ride," both during the channeling process and at other times.
- Template costs for the animals in the Basic Set, for heroes interested in shamanic shapeshifting.
