The Lore of Ergus

Ritual spells are found in game, usually on scrolls that describe what is needed to cast them. While they vary wildly in requirements and outcome, most have certain common traits. They require one or more points of the Brilliance attribute to be used. A ritual will specify if it is an open ritual (anyone may cast) or a ritual requiring the mastery of a certain skill set (for example Druid Ritualist or Advanced Alchemy). Ritual scrolls often require that the caster(s) inscribe runes or sigils in particular ways or manipulate components. By default, these components are not game supplied in game tagged items but rather are untagged props that may be brought to the game by the player if desired. The scroll will further specify any actions that must be taken to complete the ritual and instruct on how the results will take Effect. It will not be uncommon for a ritual to specify time and location restrictions on their casting. Casting a ritual requires that you have an empowered ritual magic scroll with you to work from. Such scrolls are distinguished by the out of game text on the bottom, or on the back, that explain the Effects of the ritual. Please note that you do not need a staff member present to cast most rituals.
