*He looked at andrew a moment when he said he knew of bone rythums but did not learn it. Then jeremy went into tutor mode*well ya see bonerythums is a pretty fantastic fucking ritual. It is considered a minor ritual but I feel there is nothing minor about honoring your totem. It can be used for many different things let me name a few for the moment. First way it can be used is to honor your tribal totem, it is why many children of gaia learn the ritual, as it is a way to honor unicorn, which is a high priority for us. However it can be also used to honor a pack totem, it helps you become closer to your packs totem and strengthen the bond between you and it making the connection even stronger then the initial acceptence of the totem. Now here is the part few use the ritual for, and it is the third part of the ritual that manly only elders use it for. It can be used to strengthen your bond and show respect to any totem spirit or spirit in and of itself. Why do I say manily elders only use it for this reason? Fo

For some elders seek out a personal totem other then there pack or tribal totems. Useing the bone rythum rite helps you honor the totem, the totem will regonise you more readily and be more accepting of your request should you seek to ask it for the prilvalage of allowing you to personaly be one of its children. Personal totems can be hard to get, but useing this ritual which is only considered a "minor" rite is essential in gaining the attension and respect of a personal totem.

Now let me explain what exactly happens

Jeremy Meers (Oct 3, 2010 6:19:23 PM)
You preform the rite every day rain or shine that is how it is.. After three days of preforming the ritual when ever you enter the umbra you will feel that totems blessing upon you, reguardless if it is pack totem, tribal totem, or what ever other totem it is you are honoring. And when you need it most you will be able to draw on that link to aid you. Be it to heal a fellow garou, be it to SMACK the SHIT out of some wyrm beast, or simply to summon a spirit, hell one time a fucking wyrm creature laid the smack down on me, got me pretty good with its nasty ass claws, I drew on that strength of connection to heal those grevious wounds and crack that bitches skull open with my axe, i think had i not had the connection i might not have been able to heal it all, might have been a frenzy incident then who knows who would have lived or died.

*He looked at him* is that a rite you are interested in learning?

Andrew Zimmer (Oct 3, 2010 6:22:38 PM)
"The rite itself sounds exceptionally multifaceted, that in and of itself makes it sound like a rite that someone could use quite regularly, as a garou of few direct allies at the moment, strengthening my bonds with the spirits would only further aid me. So these Bone Rhythms sound like something I should practice.

Jeremy Meers (Oct 3, 2010 6:29:10 PM)
*He nodded his head to Andrew* Allright well here is the thing, first you must think of the spirit in which you where going to honor. I will give you two examples and then ask one of you.. If I was honoring Sea Drake, I would use the bones of my enemies and beat the rythum of a mighty storm on the sea, such sound the beating of rain swipeing the bones against the ground in a way to signify the rushing waves, the bones I would have gathered myself in battle and then thouraly cleansed. Ive done this in the past for I once upon a time followed sea drake. *Then he moves on to the next one* However if I was following raccoon I would use Shinney metalic drum sticks and perhaps beat a soft stealthy rythum against the plus ground like the sound of pitter pattering lil feet of the raccoon against the soft earth.. And we all know how much raccoon enjoys those shinney things.. Now you give me a example please.

"If I were to pay hommage wind spirits, I'd use hollow chambered perforated sticks to provide subtlety altered whistlingly tunes as they traveled through the air. My fingers would change placement during the performance to alter the tones much as a person who played a flute, bringing forth different tones to further appease the spirit, at times I'd even change the material of the drumming tool to further alter what sort of wind spirits it would appease, stone tools would attract those who howl through the canyons and carve the very rock with their touch. Wood for the forests, ice and reed for the stagnant wind of the swamp or arctic wind of the north.

Jeremy Meers (Oct 3, 2010 6:39:31 PM)
*He nodded his head* very good example, and you seem to have a good grasp of it.. I can preform it for you if you wish to see it in action?

Andrew Zimmer (Oct 3, 2010 6:42:03 PM)
"I'm always willing to witness someone perform a rite. Learn through visual and practical application."

*Jeremy nodded his head, he slipped down on the ground and pulled out two apple tree branches. He moved towards the nearest tree.. And he closed his eyes, his back brazinly open to the shadow lord. Either he had utterly no fear of the tribe, or felt he could trust them unlike the rest of the sept. Or he had utterly no fear whom knew why, it was obvious jeremy was not your average yogi bear. On his back was the massive war axe with the blades semi shaped into the image of bat like wings. The blades seemed cared for and shimmered with such a deadly persona. And jeremys hands used the apple tree branches with some glyphs eteched into them to thwap lightly against the bark of the tree.. it

Jeremy Meers (Oct 3, 2010 6:48:03 PM)
resembled the sound of wings flapping or tiny lil feet landing on tree branches.. Then a swoosh as he slipped it against the smooth part of the bark like the gliding of a bats wings on the wind. And jeremys large hands continued to change the sounds but all of them sent tell tale signs of bats..*
