I'm thinking of making a Hindu "shaman" But I would like any suggestions that you have for "Totem" Rules.. example

Shiva is the god of destruction and renewal (also yoga and some other things that I cant think of right now). "Priest" of Shiva are fierce combatants but often know when to stay thier hand.

Environment-any where

Advantages- +2dice for combat spells and healing spells

Disadvantages -2 dice on conjuring (but not banishing) tests

Now YOU give it a try :)

If you have ideas for hermetics thats cool to. If you have alternative ad/disad (ie something other than the usual +2 dice for this -1 die for that I would like to hear them as well. Finally if you think some current totem would fit (ie The creator totem would work nicely for a follower of Brahamn) Then let me know. 8)

Thank you for your help and I hope you have fun with this "assignment".
