Yes, I did... I can remember you (or at least someone) posted it, but I seem
to not have saved it. I did run into these next two while looking for it,
however...

Ok, guys, I finally found my copy of WW with the totems. It is WW#30, Feb.
1992. The answer to the question about Manipulation/ Illusion spells is:

(drumroll please.....)

OTTER and SWAN!

Here they are:
Otter
Advantages:
+2 dice manipulation and illusion spells
+2 dice for conjuring Spirits of the Water

She is playful and fears nothing, because she takes nothing seriously.
She is not a trickster, but fond of practical jokes(harmless ones).
She does not engage in anything not directly related to her own survival
unless it promises to be good for a few laughs.

Environment: On or near Water.

Disadvantages: Otter is easily bored. If the thrills and excitemant slow
down too much,the shaman must make a willpower success test(TN=4). Failure
means the shaman becomes distracted and suffers a +1 modifier to all TN's,
magical and non-magical, pertaining to her original objective. It takes a
test with TN=6 to get her back on track.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Swan
Advantages:
+2 dice for manipulation and illusion spells.
+2 dice for River or Lake Spirits

She is graceful and charismatic. She can also be egocentric and fickle.
She enjoys being the center of attention, and does her best to obtain
that position and hold it.

Environment: In and around FRESH water.

Disadvantages:Swan shamans demand a high lifestyle of better. They are
often performers, divas, or primaballerinas living in sheltered worlds.
Swan likes things neat and orderly, subtract 1 die from COMBAT spells,
since such things are unsettling and messy.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Those are paraphrased from the WW issue. All errors in copying and spelling
are my own. Runners, this is a must have issue--there are some really good
totems here.
