By acquiring specific Classes and Skills, characters may gain the ability to
use Ritual magic belonging to different disciplines.
</p>
<p>
Each branch of Ritual magic grants you influence over different aspects of the
world:
</p>
<h2>Discipline Magic</h2>

The full process for casting Rituals is described on the next page. Remember
that Ritual magic should never be able to accomplish any of the following:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
Causing direct damage. The Ritual can still deal collateral damage — if you
open a chasm below your enemies' feet, they are bound to suffer some kind of
harm. When establishing collateral damage dealt by a Ritual, use the table
on <a href="/books/core/#page-93">page 93</a>.
</li>
<li>Inflicting or removing status effects.</li>
<li>
Causing characters to lose or gain HP , MP , IP , Fabula Points or Ultima
Points.
</li>
<li>
Replicating the mechanical benefits of an existing spell or Skill (however,
narrative effects such as teleportation of flight are okay, even if some
Skills do grant them).
</li>
<li>
Generating creatures or equipment, or granting them permanent abilities.
</li>
</ul>
<p>
Aside from these, most Rituals are fair game — but the stronger the effect you
seek, the more tragic the consequences will be if your Ritual goes wrong.
