Arion's Burden

Arion's Burden - rank 1 totemic gift.
==Description==
Most animals shy away from Garou and other high-rage shifters. Even in glabro, Garou tend to be heavier than horses or camels can handle. This gift was originally taught by Pegasus to Black Furies who had the Scythians as their kinfolk. In Australia, it is taught by Camel to his Chosen giving them the same benefits.  The Garou calling upon the gift does not need to be the rider (or even riders) but all must be present at the invocation.
==Equipment==
The player rolls Charisma + Animal Ken, difficulty 6. It only requires only 1 success to activate. This Gift works to calm any animal (the second part on any animal capable of being a mount), it is most commonly employed on horses, mules and camels in the Outback regions. Successful horseback riding requires a Dexterity + Athletics roll even with this gift employed, especially under "stunt" situations.
