|text=While under this ritual, you take on major features of your totem animal, typically growing fur on parts of the body, getting pointed ears, beast eyes, sharp teeth, or even a tail. You retain full control, but the possession is distracting and makes you behave in an animalistic manner. See [[#Essence of the Totem|Essence of the Totem]] for totem selection rules. This has the following game effects:
 
−
* -2 penalty to Bluff, Diplomacy, and Insight.
 
−
* Benefits depending on your totem, from the table below.

|text=As you perform the ritual a small thundercloud gathers, cumulating in a lightning strike. It becomes obvious where the lightning will strike one minute before it actually strikes. You must specify a target spot when you begin the ritual, and it strikes in a burst 1 area with a range of 100, using the Nature check as an attack against Reflex. It strikes the same area each round for one minute (10 rounds), each time inflicting lightning damage equal to the Nature check. Make a separate check for each round of the duration. In most cases, it can be assumed to destroy whatever is in the area, reducing it to rubble.
