This has been done a few times before on the list, so there are plenty of messages if you can find them.
I would say this depends on the specific tradition and on whether the character is a member of animist society or a shaman (you may also want to add detail based on practices if you have seen the animism rules additions on the GTA pages).
Members _usually_ get five fetishes that are one-use. Maybe you decide that a given animist tradition member in your game gets a different number. It seems odd that shamans also get five one-use fetishes. I have decided that shamans get an average of five fetishes that can be of any non-integrated
frequency (one-use, 1/day, and 3/day) as long as the shaman has no more 3/day than 1/day or 1/day than one-use (this means that the most power would be 1 3/day, 2 1/day, and 2 one-use). Integrated is still worth twonormal fetishes. Published animist traditions may specify some of these details.

Agreed.

It's not covered in the FAQ.
