Rite of the Griffin~4~Mystic~Red Talon~RT~
This ceremony is seldom performed by the Red Talons, as it inevitably
results in the death of one of their valued members. Sometimes a Talon
reaches a point where she cannot tolerate what she see as the compromise
of the Red Talons, and certain death is no longer enough to prevent her
from trying to wipe out the humans. The alpha of her pack calls a Rite
of the Griffin in which the entire pack participates.

The Garou for whom the rite is being performed stands in a ring formed by
her pack members as the ritemaster recounts her greatest deeds and invokes
the spirit of the Griffin to inspire the Garou. If the ritemaster is
successful, Griffin gives the Red Talon who is to die a final boon. Her
Rage and Gnosis are refreshed to their maximum level, and she enters a final
and pure frenzy. While in this frenzy, she is immune to any supernatural powers
that would force her to diverge from her purpose. She will not leave the
frenzy until she dies. The rite ands when the enraged Talon runs off toward
her goal and the pack howls a mournful howl after her. The pack then wait for
a time and begin the Gathering for the Departed.

System: The ritemaster rolls Charisma + Rituals (difficulty 8) to petition
Griffin for aid to the despairing packmate. Even if this roll is not
successful, the supplicant often travels to a scab and dies in a futile
attempt to destroy the heart of the Wyrm.
