Rituals: You can attune to use strange idiosyncratic rituals to achieve any mundane effect you desire. Costs stress based on the magnitude of the desired effect (2-6). Answer the following questions:
• What is the mundane effect you want to achieve and how do you make it weird?
o I want to search the scene for traces of those who attacked. I do this by seeing the ghosts of the actions they left behind..
• What is the weird ritual you preform?
o I pull out my pipe and drop in a ball of the good stuff. You know, opium laced with crematory ash.
• Why does that work?
o That’s easy. You want to see beyond the veil, you gotta take a little trip there yourself.
• What is the price and to whom do you pay it?
o The price? Well the door swings both ways right? You borrow some death. They borrow some life.
• Where did you learn this technique?
o I bought some shit off this guy once and it turns out he gave me some of his personal stash by mistake. Now I’m a regular buyer.
This is nice to think about as there are scores listed, to fullfill or stop a ritual.
I think the scope of those type of rituals is meant to be larger than this. The key word in the above is “mundane.” You can use this to disguise yourself, open a lock, charm a person into believing a lie.
The rituals that you might fulfill or stop as part of job would probably be project clocks enacted by NPC’s and they would probably be quite large. Your actions as a team would be adding (or subtracting) a segment to the clock.
I Like it Dylan!
I think the first question needs to be:
~What ‘effect’ are you trying to achieve with the ritual?
Damn. Fine. Point.
Actually I like that so much I added it to the move above.
This is great.
Its great too, to see tjis community creating so many ideas.
