Latent Abilities

• Unlocks/conditional: TBD.

• Hunt by sound and vibration inside dense fog; vision weak in clear weather.
• Disperse when fog lifts; pack aggression spikes only if provoked or guarding clan marks.
• Can briefly phase during pursuit, making staggered, echo-like lunges through mist.
• Gameplay hook: use wind/light to thin fog and reduce threat; stealth favored over direct fights.

• Need rules for how clan scent-marking shifts aggro (ally vs. neutral vs. hostile).
• Clarify phasing cooldowns to avoid unfair chain hits in low-visibility zones.
