EDIT: A reread of the Ritual section answered my own question for me. Lesson to learn here, memory is a terriable thing to go by.
The Whisper ability Ritual only allows one Ritual to be learned, correct? If this is the case, can a Whisper take it multiple times? If they ‘can’ take it multiple time, do the subsequent takings of Ritual count as Veteran slots?
If it has one dot next to it, you can take it once (contrast: the veteran ability). If you already have an ability, you cannot take it again. You must learn other rituals in play.
Alfred Rudzki Ah, yep, this question was spawned from me remembering the Ritual section from the Quick-Start wrong. My memory had me operating on the premise that the Ritual ability was ‘required’ to learn a ritual.
The way I’ve been reading it, taking Ritual allows you to study any ritual to which you have access, which would mean that you can Study multiple rituals and learn how to generate many different occult effects, if you have access to the right texts. The wording’s a bit ambiguous, though, referring to “a” ritual…
What Michael Crowley said, plus you get one ritual which you describe as part of picking up the Ritual ability. But yea, you still determine additional rituals as needed, in play, and each is a separate instance of the questions and clock given.
