What it does

Stance, toggled. While on: (1) every creature within 30 tiles leaves prints as it moves, whatever it is doing (today only chasing, fleeing, circling and stalking beasts do), and prints and blood within 30 tiles are drawn at full strength for 3x their life (450 s); (2) a 3 px scent arrow at the screen's edge points to the nearest beast within 30 tiles that is off screen, and the minimap shows each beast within 30 tiles as a faint dot; (3) in your own body: walk x0.85, no sprint, stamina regen x0.5. In any Wolf form there is no penalty at all (the nose is the wolf's). Ends when toggled, on a blow you land, or on going indoors. Never shows people, sentries or dragons. No damage.

Edge: Old Trails

Reach 30 -> 40 tiles (prints, arrow and dots). Honed on a band hunt, not in the ring (R10): land it 3 times with a band member of its tier present.
