It's also on page 192 under Rasputin's write up, but it doesn't tell you 
anything more than the mention in the front of the book...it mentions a trick 
called "dying act,sacrifice", as well.

I figured there would be plenty of Weres....in my campaign, I have Were-Rats 
running around the sewers of Crescent City....now I can base the package on 
something :)  It should be easy enough to tweak.

I've found that most of the packages can be "modified" to fit the 
surroundings...just make the Dunemaster an Earthmaster or something like that 
and let them use their powers on earth or even concrete.  I was thinking the 
same thing about the Jungler, though making it the urban jungle (can 
communicate with rats, pigeons, wild dogs, etc., can control various parts of 
the city...wild vines, street lamps, etc....), I dunno, just some random 
thoughts.
