Leaf on the Wind (Custom Intermediate Corax Gift)

Channeling your Rage into movement is one of the basic things which Corax and Tengu learn: the power of swift flight. Such speed can often allow the Corax to fly with truly impressive speed for short bursts. Wereravens may choose to utilize this speed to interact in dangerous environments, in either a helpful or harmful way.

The character must be in a form capable of flight in order to use this Gift. Spend a Rage Trait and a Willpower Trait. For the duration of the scene, the Corax may replace their normal movement with the ability to fly to any individual in the scene and find themselves close enough to touch them - so long as that target is not moving under supernatural speed of an Intermediate-level, such as the Gift: Speed Beyond Thought, or Intermediate (or higher) levels of Celerity. This may be used to hand off items such as Talens or to grab a target (unwilling subjects must be defeated in a Contested Physical Challenge), or, for more brash wereravens, deliver an attack.

Additionally, the character may attempt to move their target, though this requires that the Corax have a firm grasp (such as an established grapple) and pay an additional Rage Trait and Willpower Trait to take the individual along. Of course, the Corax must be capable of lifting and moving the individual in question (Gifts such as Heroes Stand may make this more difficult or indeed impossible, at the Storyteller's discretion). Doing so must wait until the next action which the Gift-user possesses, however, as this Gift may not be used more than once in the same action.

Under no circumstances may this power be utilized to fair escape. The character utilizing Leaf on the Wind must select another character (PC or NPC) in the scene to move to, otherwise standard movements and challenges apply.

This gift costs 6xp to learn, and may only be learned by Tengu/Corax
