Silverkniv

Hittad i Session 41 Report.

In addition to turning normal attacks into unsoakable aggravated damage (see p. 255), silver causes other problems for the Garou. Just touching silver causes one level of aggravated damage per turn of contact, unless the werewolf is a homid or lupus who is in her breed form. Some Garou carry silver, usually in the form of weaponry such as klaives. Doing so, however, comes with a price. The Garou’s natural allergy to silver causes a reduction in his effective Gnosis. This loss remains in effect in all forms, including the character’s breed form. If the Garou discards or stores the silver object(s), the effect fades after a day.

Damage dealt from a silver weapon is handled slightly differently to other sources of damage. If a homid or lupus werewolf is in her breed form, an attack with a silver  weapon does nothing special.  It causes bashing or lethal damage as appropriate and can be soaked as normal — that the weapon is silver does not factor in to the damage. In any other form, a werewolf cannot soak damage  from silver without a Gift or fetish, and the damage taken is aggravated. A successful attack always deals one point of damage, even if the attacker rolled no successes for damage. Metis do not have safety of a breed form to shield them from the ravages of silver. They take  unsoakable aggravated damage from silver in any form.
