Misc Gaming Mechanics Index | Comparisons and Conversions Index
These rules are for the Minds Eye Theater, but it will give you some idea of what they're capable of.

  • Aggravated damage from gold and silver.
  • Cannot sidestep without Gift.
  • Strikes must have half their renown in Glory
  • Concealed must have half their renown in Wisdom
  • Followed must have half their renown in Honor
  • Aspects that have a basic gift as a specialty gain that gift upon the first change.
A special animosity exists between the Garou and the Mokolé. The Garou believe the Mokolé are the very image of the Wyrm, and almost totally destroyed the giant lizards during the war of rage.

Please note that the middle form have an extra level added to the Mokolé health. This is a reflection of the ability to withstand more damage in this form before showing the effects. When shifting forms, normal damage is taken off of the new levels first. Aggravated damage doesn’t disappear when Mokolé shifts forms. The total health level of aggravated damage remains unchanged.

Mokolé can take the appearance of either a dinosaur or a dragon while in Archid form, and that appearance is determined at the first change. The Mokolé get to buy certain attribute depending on gnosis. As the gnosis increases, the Archid form will become more like the ancestors. bullet

Gifts

Basic Gifts

Bellow

The Mokolé use this to let out a deafening roar that terrifies all who hear it. All in hearing distance must make a social test. Upon losing, they must flee as if affected by the delirium. If they tie and have less traits than the Mokolé, they flee. If they lose, they must make a fox frenzy check and flee. This gift costs one rage OR gnosis to enact, and the Mokolé can spend rage or will power traits to add to his social trait total.

Talk

This gift allows a Mokolé in Archid form to communicate with other Mokolé. This also allows any one in Archid form to communicate in a human language. There is no cost to this gift.

Razor Claws
Resist Pain
Clap of Thunder

These are identical to the Garou gifts.

Become Log

This is identical to the Ragabash gift Blissful Ignorance, but the Mokolé must be in water at the time.

Armor of the Tortoise

This gift adds two resilient traits to the Archid and Suchid forms .

Intermediate Gifts

Tame Sunbeam

The Mokolé can summon sunshine for one scene by using this gift. It costs a variable amount of mental traits to use. If five extra mental traits are risked, the gift may be used at night. The Mokolé must risk the mental traits and then perform a mental test.

1 trait - Illuminate a dark area with sunlight

2 traits - Rays of sunshine can pierce clouds and shine on a person or place (kindred hate this)

3 traits - Clouds, water, and glass do not affect sunlight in the area. It is treated as if there were a clear sky

4 traits - Concentrates sunshine to light fires or bring heat in the cold

Dragons Breath

The Mokolé can call down the wrath of the Dragon King with this gift. A burst of flame issues from the mouth three feet wide if in Homid or suchid form, or five feet wide if in Archid. The flame is three feet long, but can be made one foot longer per extra rage spent. All those in the affected area must make a physical challenge versus a mental (similar to firearms). The fire causes two wound levels.

Clear Mind

The Mokolé can spend a will power trait to double his mental traits for one scene.

Eyes of the Cobra

Same as the Garou Gift.

Advanced Gifts

Rites
Mokolé can learn most Garou rites, at the Storytellers discretion.
