Escape to a True Friend (5)

Requirements: Thaumaturgy, Rituals 5, Target must be a close and trusted friend.
Components: a piece of parchment, something to write with, a token of friendship for the target, a candle, your target.
Cost: 5 blood
Cast Time: 10 minutes.

Create a level 4 Thaumaturgy Circle.

Sit in the center of the circle. Arrange the components around the circle, with one on each point.

On the piece of parchment, draw a sketch of the target. It does not have to be great, but it should be identifiable as the target. Include any characteristic features.

After the drawing is complete, repeat the following 5 times: “You are my truest friend, at your call, I shall attend” Silently meditate on the token of friendship for 60 seconds

Ask the target their True Name. Give the target your token of friendship.

Spend 5 blood.

On a white 3x5 card, write the following:

 Ritual: Escape to a True Friend
 Caster: (Your name)
 Target: (Target name)
 Begin Time: (Current time and date)
 Duration: Indefinite
 Effect: By touching the parchment this card is attached to, the Caster may speak aloud the True Name of the Target, and spend 1 Will. Equip an OOG headband and immediately go to the Target, wherever they are. Then find a nearby spot that is out of view from anyone. Remove the OOG headband. The Caster may bring 1 other willing person with them when they make this trip by spending 1 additional Will. 
 If the parchment is removed from the wall, the ritual ends.

Writing the 3x5 card is part of casting the ritual, and it should not be made in advance.

Affix the 3x5 to the parchment, and affix the parchment to a wall. The ritual will end if the parchment is removed by anyone.

If you attempt to use this Ritual and you cannot find your Target within 10 minutes, immediately return to the parchment.

The Caster may only have 1 of this ritual in effect at any time.
