The Gift of Kurgi - is it useful?

[TigerBlood]

I've used it on a stealthy raider before. As an item, the fatigue cost from the spell is minimal.

Biggest drawback is that it's holder becomes a preferred target for spammed horrors unless backed up by another mage capable of casting horror mark. Even then, success is not a given. You could probably do a few tricks with Returning or other spells, but commiting a mage to help make it work kind of makes the item redundant in a lot of situations.

The ritual spell it grants can be used without a lab, so that is a plus.
