Ritual:Rite of the Cardboard Palace
Rite of the Cardboard Palace (1)
Requirements: | 1 Werewolf, Ratkin, or Nuwisha - popular among Bone Gnawers |
Cost: | 3 Gnosis per resident. |
Cast Time: | 3-5 minutes |
May contribute to: | Nothing - this Rite cannot aid your Renown |
Purpose: | Allows a character to enter a meld-like state for a minimum of 6 hours. |
Build a shelter big enough that you could climb into it - you may use any materials at your disposal. The shelter must be mostly covered from the top, two sides, the back, and the bottom (leaving one side open is fine). The walls need not be truly opaque, and may have gaps, but should be at least as much wall as gap. Step back and admire your handiwork then place both hands gently on the shelter, say “Spirit of this place, please grant me and any who I might invite in your safe interment.”
If you wish to invite in up to 2 other residents you may do so. Spend 3 Gnosis for each resident as you guide them into the shelter - they should push partway in, put an orange headband on, then exit the shelter. The user should enter last, following the same process. Finally, all three characters should write up meld cards (provided by the user), similar to those created by the Meld power, with a minimum duration of 6 hours. You may sleep OOG, or go NPC or alt if you wish, your characters will sleep safely.
