<h1>22GAME RULES</h1>
|
|
<h2>The Ritual</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>The Ritual is cast following the normal procedure for a spell (page 115), but it always requires a Magic Check which must meet or exceed a Difficulty Level based on the Ritual's potency (see below). The Check will rely on the Attributes indicated by the Ritual's discipline (see page on the left).</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>If you succeed, the Ritual has the desired effect; if you fail, the Game Master will describe how its effects have been twisted in a catastrophic way.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Procedure for Casting The Ritual</h3>
|
|
<ol>
|
|
<li><strong>Determine Goal:</strong> Describe what you want to accomplish with your Ritual and declare which area or creatures you want to affect.</li>
|
|
<li><strong>Game Master Ruling:</strong> The Game Master has final say on whether a given effect can be accomplished, as well as which Ritual discipline it falls within.</li>
|
|
<li><strong>Calculate Cost:</strong> By consulting the Area and Potency tables below, the Game Master determines the Ritual's total cost in Mind Points (MP).</li>
|
|
</ol>
