For contingency purposes, the following information applies to BSDs, Gaian Garou and Fera.

Gift Progression Rule

Any player character (PC) capable of buying Gifts must do so in a pyramid-like progression. This means that to purchase a Gift of a higher Rank, the PC must have already purchased a certain number of Gifts from the preceding Ranks. The progression requirement is as follows:

  • To buy a Rank 1 Gift: No prerequisites.
  • To buy a Rank 2 Gift: The PC must have at least two Rank 1 Gift.
  • To buy a Rank 3 Gift: The PC must have at least two Rank 2 Gifts and three Rank 1 Gifts.
  • To buy a Rank 4 Gift: The PC must have at least two Rank 3 Gifts, three Rank 2 Gifts, and four Rank 1 Gifts.
  • To buy a Rank 5 Gift: The PC must have at least two Rank 4 Gifts, three Rank 3 Gifts, four Rank 2 Gifts, and five Rank 1 Gifts.
  • To buy a second Rank 5 Gift: The PC must have at least three Rank 4 Gifts, four Rank 3 Gifts, five Rank 2 Gifts, and six Rank 1 Gifts.

Example

  • **First Rank 3 Gift:** The PC must have two Rank 2 Gifts and three Rank 1 Gifts.
  • **First Rank 4 Gift:** The PC must have two Rank 3 Gifts, three Rank 2 Gifts, and four Rank 1 Gifts.
  • **First Rank 5 Gift:** The PC must have two Rank 4 Gifts, three Rank 3 Gifts, four Rank 2 Gifts, and five Rank 1 Gifts.
  • **Second Rank 5 Gift:** The PC must have three Rank 4 Gifts, four Rank 3 Gifts, five Rank 2 Gifts, and six Rank 1 Gifts.

This rule ensures that PCs develop their abilities in a structured manner, maintaining a balanced progression across all Gift ranks and demonstrating a broad and deep understanding before advancing to higher ranks.

Gaining Gifts

Learning a gift is a large part of the culture. In order to learn a gift outside CG, either a fera/garou/kinfolk must seek out a spirit to teach them the gift or find a garou/fera willing to teach it. A log of the scene must be attached to the request of the gift. If you are learning from a garou/fera the gift, this is a lengthy process and will require multiple sessions in order to accomplish.

Rank 3+ gifts must have the ST turn in a proposed plot proposal turned in and approved by Staff. In the event of not being able to find a a player ST, Staff will be able to assist. Here's a guide of what staff wants to see in the proposal:
