Activate Cast a Spell (add 1 action)


This wooden whistle is stuffed with cotton and carved with images of bellowing stags, howling wolves, and chirping birds. You can blow on this whistle to use it as a catalyst when casting an Animal Form spell. When you do, you retain the ability to speak.

Once during the spell's duration, you can cast either a spell of 4th-rank or lower or a cantrip of any level, ignoring the inability to cast spells while in your battle form.


Trait Effects

Catalyst: Items with the catalyst trait are consumables that alter or magnify specific spells. Using a catalyst adds the manipulate trait to the spell. Activating a catalyst is part of Casting the Spell. The catalyst might increase the number of actions required to Cast the Spell, as indicated in the catalyst's Activate entry. You can draw the catalyst as part of Casting the Spell.

Consumable: An item with this trait can be used only once. Unless stated otherwise, it’s destroyed after activation. Consumable items include alchemical items and magical consumables such as scrolls and talismans. A character can Craft consumable items in batches of four.

Magical: Something with the magical trait is imbued with magical energies not tied to a specific tradition of magic. Some items or effects are closely tied to a particular tradition of magic. In these cases, the item has the arcane, divine, occult, or primal trait instead of the magical trait. Any of these traits indicate that the item is magical.
