Ritual: Illusion of Peaceful Death
Caster: (Your name)
Begin Time: (Current time and date)
Duration: Until end of game
Effect: The caster can use this feather once to conceal the nature of a death. By dusting a dying or unconscious body with this feather and repeating “It must have been his time to go. At least he went out in his sleep” the caster will mystically conceal the details of what happened. This grants the caster Vitalsigns, No cost, Other single unconscious or dying target. All answers to the questions must lead toward injury or death by natural causes.
The caster can program any number of answers, but may only affect a single target.

After a feather has been used in this way, the ritual ends. The same feather can be used again.
