	The walker has learned to look at the world of ~~the~~ wilders and ~~see~~ them clearly, as for others drowned in the confusing veil of the corporeal world most of them are not seen. A walker with this power understands the wilders and knows their habits. Also those with this power tend to tattoo the symbol of an eye in the middle of the forehead as a sign of the gift they have received. The Eskarans generally consider this tattoo as a way to tell real witches apart from mere berry pickers.

	If a walker drifts into the stream of dreams, he will drift into some undetermined time and place he didn't want to end up. This time and place is very likely hostile and dangerous to the walker.

	The Infecti draw some of their knowledge and power from the three other paths. The strongest of them also develop their own form of spellcraft. They can learn lesser spellcraft of the other three paths under the same conditions as those who are actually walking on those paths. However, they can never learn major or greater spellcraft.

	The walker has an animal spirit that advises and helps him in difficult places. The walker can also take on the essence of his spirit animal making him become more like his spirit animal for a while. The walker summoning the spirit of the wolf gets a better sense of smell and at the same time quite a lust for the flesh, while the one asking for help from the spirit of the hare is able to sneak away at a wild pace while being very afraid of the smell of the fox.

	The walker knowing ~~the~~ secret rites of exorcism can use them to banish wilders and evil undead. However, some enemies of the Church of Light (such as ghosts) cannot be defeated in direct conflict. Sometimes the exorcist sees just a vision sent by his god which tells him the right way to get rid of this specific enemy.

	Exorcism can also be used to protect some specific room or area from wilders or ghosts. If a walker protects a small space, such as a small house or room, with this force, representatives of nether or the spirit world cannot enter it without first overcoming the walker's piety.

	The most dedicated members of the Church sects can ascend into a state of active trance, in which the performer concentrates all his will, power, and intelligence on a single goal, excluding everything else from his mind. The trance of mercy, for example, causes the walker to focus his whole being on helping the suffering, where the trance of perfect perception helps him to notice the signs of black spellcraft and other forms of paganism.

	This power otherwise works exactly like the shapeshifting, but the spirit that the shapeshifter summons is not an animal but one of his ancestral pre-mothers, and a mask of that specific ancestral spirit is used in preparation instead of raw feral force. The shapeshifter does not physically turn into his ancestral spirit, but he typically gets some of its traits. If, for example, the shapeshifter's ancestral spirit had scars across her face, these very same scars could also appear on the shapeshifter's face when his ancestral spirit has reincarnated into his corporeal body.
