Blessings (Each night you can spend mana to give blessings to any Kudu born)
* Fertility - More babies
* Vigilance - Kudu have keener senses

* Second Wind - Kudu gain a burst of speed before running out of energy

Only members of the blessed litter retain each blessing, but they do so for as long as they live!
