Subject and Contents
This book details a Non-Hermetic shamanic magical tradition. The chapter headings gives some idea of the scope --
- Chapter One: Introduction - introduces the Sun Clan (shamans) and Moon Clan (shapechangers).
- Chapter Two: Characters: includes Shaman Templates for Northern Traveller; Spirit Master (Hermetic Influence); Shaman within Christendom; Spirit Master (Shamanic Influence); Temple Attendant. Companion Templates are: Northern Bear Defender; House Shapechanger; Maltese Shapechanger; Dreamer; Mongol Shapechanger. Sun Clan Grog Templates are: Hunter; Tanner; Wildstender; Fisher; Craftsperson. This is followed by rules for "advanced character creation" beyond templates, Shamanic Powers, and Playing a Spirit Master: Hermetic Shamans.
- Chapter Three: Shamanic Societies - covers Slavic Traditions, Mediterranean Traditions, and Northern Traditions.
- Chapter Four: Outside Relations - deals with shamans roles in society, relationship with the Order of Hermes and Christendom.
- Chapter Five: The Spirit World - travel and magic in the Spirit World. Regiones are noted as being closer to the Spirit World and it is therefore easier to travel across there.
- Chapter Six: Bestiary of the Spirit World - Ghosts, Spirits, Genius Loci
- Chapter Seven: Tales of the Spirit - three story seeds.
