Very mysterious. If you'd like him to be less mysterious, too bad. Please file all complaints in RSX's basement.

Location

One can follow Coyote for 60 Mako in Crater Lake in Oregon.

Powers

Coyote (dedication)

Arms: Nasty Insult
Head: Long Ears, Scent of Blood
Legs: Skitter
Skin: Furry Hide
Torso: Solid Frame, Pack Loyalty


Followers of Coyote can afflict their enemies with Metamorphosis for various effects. Quite entertaining, too.
Active followers also gain an additional 2 Hero Points. This first takes effect on the next character refresh after becoming an active follower.
Lastly, active followers can transform others into forms they have mastered, similar to a Nanite Adept. They cannot, however, change themselves with this ability.

  • TF <form>: Transform someone into <form>.
  • TF <part>=<form>: Transform a specific part into <form>.
  • TF genitals=<form>: Make all their bits match <form>.
  • TF <sex stat>=<form>: Change part of their bits to match <form>.
  • TF Size=<form>: Change their size into that of <form>.

Check Additional Equipment for more information about the command and items required for each version.

Additional Equipment

In order for a follower Coyote to use their transformation powers, they require a Nanite Control Extender. Additionally, they may also use Nanite Fine Tuner to target single parts, Nanite Gender Assigner and Nanite Carnal Equalizer to alter gender and bits, and Nanite Spatial Recalculator to alter their size. Anyone who has dedicated to Coyote can have a Gift of the Trickster to use their transformation powers while not actively following Coyote.

Thematic Information

Followers of the Native American god Coyote gain some of the trickster's power over people's shape, as well as his knack for cheating death, and other feats of heroism.

The mechanics of how Coyote dedicants are able to change others has recently come to light. From Native American mythos, 'Coyote created man from clay.' Now, nanites have wet that clay anew, allowing Coyote's followers to sculpt others into different shapes as they wish.
