Rite of Binding~1~Mystic~All~WtA~
This rite binds a spirit to a Garou, making it his servant. The more 
powerful the spirit, the more difficult the process. Although any encountered
spirit is subject to binding, the Garou generally feel that spirits should
be bound only when needed; they do not feel good about binding spirits for
great lengths of time. This point does not go uncontested, however, 
particularly by the mystics of the Uktena tribe.

Spirits trapped through this rite may be bound into temporary service, or
into objects to create talens (see Fetishes and Talens, pp. 184-185). No
spirit willingly allows itself to be bound unless it is friendly to the
binding character's totem. Spirits can be bound into objects, places and
people, although the Garou generally don't perform the last feat unless the
need is great. Failing this rite can be dangerous, for the spirit is very
likely to become hostile and attempt to harm the mystic.

System: A Garou can only attempt this rite in the presence of a spirit, and
it is usually performed in the Umbra. When attempting to bind a spirit, a
Garou must first spend a number of Gnosis points (minimum one). Each 
point of Gnosis spent reduces the spirit's Gnosis rating by one. The Garou
must then roll his own Willpower (difficulty of the spirit's adjusted
Gnosis). The number of successes indicates how long the spirit may be forced
into service (one week per success). In the case of a talen, the spirit
is bound until the object is used.

See the Appendix for examples of spirits and a list of sample talens.
