NAME
totem - summons a totemic animal to aid the caster

SYNOPSIS
cast 'totem'

DESCRIPTION
Totems are culturally and historically significant to many of the shamanic
races - although there are many important differences between the respective
meanings and roles played by the various spirit animals for each regional
and racial combinatoric, there are also notable commonalities. One of four
totemic animals can be summoned with the totem spell, at random or specified
by name. The animals will stand in the room passively, conferring benefits
to their summoner as long as they are in the same room. Animals include:
* Beaver: Will make a forested room not count as forested.
* Coyote: Will heal its summoner based on its summoner's total hp and the
   phases of the moons.
* Bear: Will prevent tracking in, to, from or through its room.
* Frog: Will periodically increase the rate at which it's summoner's opponent
   is drowning.
