Additionally, during the day, you may make an Explore roll with a TN of 14 to gather information regarding the area surrounding you, as if you were observing it from a vantage point

Beastfriend
Your bond with an animal has instil ed in it unwavering loyalty, and a wilingness to defend you. Raise your maximum Hope score by 2 points. Choose one animal from the following list: dog, lynx, raven, or falcon if you are a Donnerling. When you are engaged in battle, if an attack aimed at you produces an Sauron result, the blow hits and automatically wounds the beast instead. You may prevent this by taking the automatic wound yourself (you cannot roll for Protection). A wounded beast is put out of combat for the remainder of the scene, and will return at your side at the start of the next session only if you succeed in a Healing roll with a TN of 16. If you fail, the beast will not recover until the next Fellowship phase. You start having teached your animal companion with protect or harass When you are fighting alongside your animal companion, your immediate adversary in close combat is always considered to be Weary.
 * Protect You may spend a Fellowship phase and one Experience point to teach your beast to steadfastly defend you when you withdraw to attack your enemies with a ranged weapon. If you want to fight in a rearward stance, your animal protects you, counting as a companion fighting in a close combat stance
 * Harass Enemy You may spend a Fellowship phase and one Experience points to teach your animal companion to harass your opponent when fighting at close quarters.

A Hunter’s Resolve
You have learnt to tap into the inner strength of the indefatigable and relentless hunter. Once per day you may spend a Hope point to recover a number of Endurance points equal to your favoured Heart rating

Tongue of Beasts
You are able to understand the tongue of beasts, and request them favors. You can use the Awe skill to suggest a wild beast to heed your petition.

Blessed by the Old Folk
You have been following the Old Lore, you start with the one of the following abilities and you may spend a fellowship phase and one experience to learn another


 * Increase your hope by 1 point.
 * Enchanting song, Your eerie tunes can influence others minds- Spend a hope point and roll Song against TN 16. The effect depends of the quality of the roll, One success would usually calm the upset, one great success would win somebody friendship, one extraordinaire success would be enough to incite a riot
 * Skinchanger, you need to have a beast friend, You have mastered the method of skinchanging and can now freely leave your body for that of your beast heart. Whenever you sleep, you can safely wear the skin of your Animal Cohort.In this state, you can spend a point of Hope to explore an area within three days of travel, until sunrise wakes you. While you are outside your body, any action you attempt is resolved using your Attributes and skills as usual, but any strenuous activity causing the loss of Endurance wakes you up. Any harm suffered to your animal companion would require a TN 16 heal or losing it until the next fellowship phase.
 * Foresight once every Adventuring phase, you may invoke your power of foresight. When this happens, the Loremaster should give you a relevant piece of information regarding negative events likely to occur during your current adventure. If no such information is available – or the Loremaster prefers not to divulge it – at the start of the next Fellowship phase, he must award you one experience point instead (your foresight contained a more intimate message, leading to a sudden bout of insight or deeper understanding). Your foresight manifests in many forms: it can be a hazy vision, a recurring and enigmatic dream, or a cryptic message borne by a talking bird.
 * Purifying touch, You can with a touch and the expenditure of one hope point, try to heal serious life threatening diseases. Roll a heal roll against the resistance of the disease or poison.
