Shifter Character Generation

Shifter Specific Merits

Merit	Cost	Description
Bad Taste	2	You are gamey to the palate and revolting to the taste buds; plainly put, you taste nasty. Anyone who bites you is immediately nauseated. The biter must spend a Willpower point or retch uncontrollably for a scene. There is a drawback, however: lupus Garou and wolves are unlikely to lick or groom you, and even affectionate nibbles are affected by your foul flavor. HR: This extends to you body fluids and blood as well.
Fair Glabro	2	You have a Glabro form that can pass for human, though it’s still larger than normal people. You have no penalties to Social Attributes in Glabro form.
Mixed Morph	1 - 5	You find the art of partial transformation relatively easy, and make the required Dexterity + Primal Urge roll at difficulty 6 rather than difficulty 9 (WW20 Ann, p. 286). The five-point version of this Merit eliminates the need for a Willpower point; you can achieve partial transformation almost at will
Natural Weapons	3 or 4	You are greatly in tune with your wolf physique. Your balance and physical acuity in Lupus form are greater than in Homid form. Subtract one from the difficulty of any attack roll with an innate natural weapon (e.g., claw, bite, kick, etc.) when in Lupus form. However, add one to the difficulty of any such attacks made while in Homid form. There is no change to your attack rolls in other forms. This Merit costs 3 points for lupus or metis characters, and 4 points for homid Garou.
Wolf Sight	1	In all your forms, you see colors and intensities of light as a wolf does. Your color vision is slightly less distinct than that of humans, though you embrace the full spectrum of colors. Your night vision, however, far surpasses human nocturnal vision. You also notice movement more readily. You gain an extra die to all visually-based Perception rolls that involve movement or take place at night.
