Cunning of the Wolf: The wolf
survives not by force, but cunning. You can spend a Void Point to add
+Xk0 to any Bugei Skill roll, where X is your Intelligence.
Strike of the Wolf: The wolf
uses its whole body to attack. When you spend an Action
to make an attack, you can also make an additional attack.
The Wolf Survives:
A wolf adapts to its terrain. When making a Bugei Skill roll you can
trade dice rolled for dice kept at a 2 for 1 rate; a 9k3 roll could
become a 7k4 roll, or even a 5k5 roll.

Play Your Game: Every game is a
duel. When playing games using the Games Skill, you may choose to
make the game a duel. Treat it as an Iaijutsu duel, replacing
“Iaijutsu” with “Games” in all instances. There is no damage
roll, nor are there any Honor gains. In fact, if money is wagered,
the duel is an Act of Vice. If both duelists fail their Strike rolls,
they keep trading opportunities to make rolls against each other, the
TN lowering to the last Focus. The victor gains Glory Points equal to
their Games Skill and negates any Glory losses from playing the game.
The loser doubles all Glory losses from the game.
Play Your Foe: True players
don't worry about the odds; they play the person across the table.
You can spend a Void Point while playing a game to learn any of your
opponent's Traits or Rings. You also can spend a Void Point to defeat any attempt to learn your own Traits and Rings using Skills or Okuden; chiefly supernatural abilities cannot be so blocked.
Fortunes' Favored: When you lay
a wager, the Fortunes favor you. You can spend a Void Point to reroll
any contested Skill roll once.

Eyes of the Wolf: A keen-eyed
wolf studies his prey. When in a duel or skirmish, you
can spend an Action to study an opponent, gaining a +1k0 bonus to
your next attack roll against them. You can study the opponent even
when in Full Defense, but lose the bonus after your attack. During a
duel, each Focus counts as an Action spent studying.
Jaws of the Wolf:
A wolf does not lose his prey easily. When rolling for damage, you
may spend a Void Point to double your Strength.
The Wolf Pounces: The wolf
chooses when to strike, not the prey. You may spend a Void Point to
force an opponent to Strike in a duel or lose their highest Action
Die in a Skirmish.

Loyalty of the Pack: A wolf
protects the pack. You can designate a number of allies up to your
Insight Rank during combat; each ally cannot have attacked or made
any hostile threat to you during the combat, and ceases to be an ally
if they do so. Each ally gains a +1k1 bonus to all Active Defense
rolls.
Tactics of the Pack: A wolf
never fights alone. When fighting alongside or defending an ally
(including in a duel), you gain a +1k1 bonus to all Skill rolls.
The Pack Survives: A wolf's life
belongs to the pack. If an ally within sight is reduced to Down, Out,
or Dead, you can spend a Void Point to transfer the Wounds bringing
them to that state to yourself by intercepting the attack, drinking
the poison, or whatever other means are available.
