They're everywhere, of course, the spirits of the littlest things. Mice, crickets, pillbugs, and chipmunks, their spirits swirl all around you as you concentrate in the trash-strewn alley. But these spirits are so small that you threaten to overwhelm them.

Ah, but here's one that's slightly stronger. You ask the name of the little mouse.

That's when she rises up in her flying teapot, glowers at you, and sticks a pipe between her furry lips.

"By rock and straw, you're an ugly one!" she says. She uses a tiny silver spoon to steer her flying teacup in a full circle around you. Only when she's finished her scrutiny of you is she satisfied. "Ugly as shit on a rotten egg! But maybe we can strike a deal, you and Madame Mouse." Adjusting her tiny polka-dotted kerchief and the walnut she wears for a cap, she explains what she can offer an ambitious young Garou who knows how to cut a smart deal.

Using the Gift of Madame Mouse: Madame Mouse hides you from the sight of living creatures, enhancing your Stealth. Her power works automatically as long as you have not lost the Wolf and relies upon your Composure.

Earning the Gift of Madame Mouse: Madame Mouse has struck many deals. She teaches her Gift to ragabashes, and to werewolves who belong to the Bone Gnawer and Shadow Lord tribes. Even if you swore yourself to Rat or Vahagn, Madame Mouse only wants to teach someone who knows how to strike a smart bargain, not just honor an old-fashioned compact.

To receive the Gift of Madame Mouse, you must offer chiminage by serving her Wisely for three nights.
