I'm personally of the opinion, when it comes to CARPS and the question "Can I do this?" ask for whatever you want. The worst answer is no, the usual one is FOIG (Find Out In Game) and the rest fall somewhere in between.

As far as totems go, the ones in the book are supposed to be a guideline and some of those would be hard pressed to find in a jungle or a desert so I am sure the names change.

Mystical real animals that cast spells not just Pin specifically.
Scarab
Snakes
Bats
Jaguars
Depends on the culture after all.
No worries! I wasn't really mad just... had an honest question.

I thought about the bat! But wasn't sure what kind of bar bar that would fit!

Jaguar and snake would probably be jungle!

Ok so.... did some research. The Vanir were the gods and goddesses within Norse mythology usually associated with magic (outside of Odin). Among them is the goddess Frejya. Who has a few symbols.

One of which is the skogkatt! Or the Norwegian forest cat! Large fluffy mousers that were said to pull Frejya's chariot. I know that cats are sometimes thought of as magical but I wanted to find justification that could be tied to game.

Would something like that work?

I would not see why it would not work.

If you go that route just make sure your totem mark is very different from Lion tribe.

EDIT:

Sent to staff as an email instead. More of a direct question for GM than discussion I believe.
