Ritual:Paper Flesh

Paper Flesh (5)

Requirements:	Thaumaturgy, Rituals 5
Components:	a piece of parchment, something to write with, an effigy of the target, a candle
Cost:	5 blood
Cast Time:	10 minutes

Create a level 5 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 enemy, this I’ve sworn. By my will, your flesh I shall be torn.”

Silently meditate on the effigy for 60 seconds.

Spend 5 blood.

On a white 3x5 card, write the following:

Ritual: Paper Flesh
Caster: (Your name)
Target: (Target name)
Begin Time: (Current time and date)
Duration: 24 hours, or until used.
Effect: The caster may destroy the parchment this card is attached to while within line of site of the Target. The Caster must call “Paper Flesh: (Target name)”. For the next 10 minutes, the Caster gains the following powers:
* Open Wounds, No Cost, Other, 10 minutes, Ritual Target
* Weaken, 1 Blood, Other, 60 seconds, Ritual Target

Writing the 3x5 card is part of casting the ritual; it should either be done at the time of casting, or the caster must silently meditate for 1 minute if a preprinted card is used.

Affix the 3x5 to the parchment.

The ritual will end if the caster goes unconscious.

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