[SL]
This rite is a declaration of war against a ruler who has been tainted by
the Wyrm or who has committed a major transgression against the Litany. The
accusation of transgression must be pronounced at a moot by one who is not
a Shadow Lord. The crime does not have to be substantiated, but it must
be true. The rite begins with a gathering of stormclouds. The amount of time
required for this to occur depends on the weather at the time. If rain is 
incipient, the effects may only require one scene to manifest; if skies are
clear, the effects may take a full day. (The Gift{sic} is not a "rain
dance". It may not be used with impunity in the Sahara Desert or Death
Valley.  Storyteller's judgment - or Grandfather's judgment - is required.)

System: Once the tempest begins, each individual who has conspired against
the ruler over the course of the last two days gains two points of Rage;
each Shadow Lord also gains one point of Gnosis. The animal instincts of
the Garou grow stronger: Any roll involving Primal-Urge (including Tracking)
is performed at a difficulty two lower than normal. This will only occur,
however, if the charge is true. If the charge is not true, lightning will
strike, and each participant in the ceremony will take three levels of 
aggravated damage.
