  2. Will open a Gateway to the Tree Kingdoms, especially the Oak or Pine Kingdoms.
  3. Will Cast a Glide Between Trees on one Participant with a Duration of 1 Cd.
  4. Will give Squirrel Cultists a Nutty Quest (may do this even if not requested to).

  2. Will turn an Animal Squirrel into an ML2 Giant Squirrel.  Squirrel must be present at the Summoning.
  3. Will grow a Giant Squirrel by 2 MLs (with no upper limit on ML).  Squirrel must be present at the Summoning.
  4. Will make a Squirrel "obedient" (for a Squirrel)  to one Participant for up to a year and a day.  Squirrel must be present at the Summoning.  Favour may not be given again in respect of the same Squirrel until at least one year has passed.
  5. Will agree not to reveal the location of a hidden horde of nuts or other trinkets to another Binder or Demon Lord (unless paid more by them than he is now paid to keep it secret).
  6. Pact: may ignore any of the above "Squirrel must be present at the Summoning" restrictions, and target any Squirrel specified by Operator with sufficient accuracy.
  7. Pact: Will give the Power to Glide Between Trees to one Participant.
  8. Pact: will give a Squirrel Cultist item (usually in the form of an acorn or other nut).

Note: will only grant one of Triangle Favours 2 to 4 above per Summoning, except with a Pact.

Familiars: Demonic Squirrels Who will join in Nutty Quests

Notes:

  1.  RATATOSKR, Demon of Squirrels, is the lowliest of the G/C Demon Lords but is eager for advancement.  Although He can be bribed with particularly tasty nuts when Summoned, He is likely to require as a term of a Pact that the Binder puts their Faith in Him as God of Squirrels or even founds a Temple to Him and recruits Followers to His Creed.  Some Binders have found such terms amusing, easy to satisfy or just missed them in the small print, and so a number of Temples of RATATOSKR, the Unbeatable God of Squirrels, have sprung up in Streets of False Gods or in the woods, like oaks from forgotten acorns.
  2. He is Patron of Squirrel Cults, which have proven surprisingly popular, as the Cult of RATATOSKR is an easygoing G/C Creed that makes little demand on His Followers and seems to focus on climbing trees and buildings and stealing nuts and other trinkets.
