The benefits depend on your totem.

Totem	Benefit
Gatherer	Once per round you can take an extra minor action taken from the list of minor actions in PH, chapter 9 Combat. You cannot use this bonus action for powers that use minor actions.
Grazer	Temporary hit points equal to your level. These return after each short rest.
Hunter	+1 speed.
Pouncer	+2 Initiative
Prey	You can take move actions (only) in a surprise round even if you are surprised.
Stalker	Move up to normal speed without penalty when using Stealth. You must still make a Stealth check in a round you move more than 2 squares, but you do so at no penalty.

The duration depends on the result of the Nature check, and you can end it at any time as a minor action.
