	The ritual loses all power and becomes useless if there is ever a season where there are no fortifications in Urizen territory. For the purpose of the agreement only permanent fortifications created with [[white granite]] count - magical citadels such as those created by [[Frozen Citadel of Cathan Canae]] do not count. The ritual's power might be restored by renegotiation with Adamant but it is by no means certain it would function the same way.

	The size and experience of the ''koboldi'' warband is directly proportionate to the size of the enchanted mine, and they excel at [[Military_unit#Defend_Fortification\|defending]] a [[fortification]]. They are also, by all accounts, ~~unfailing~~ polite, pleasant, cheerful, and upbeat even in the face of defeat.

	A note in the ritual remarks that the ''colour'' of the ''koboldi'' seems to be related to the primary material produced in the mine. An [[orichalcum]] mine sees golden- or emerald-scaled ''koboldi'' arrive to fight on behalf of the owner. [[Weltsilver]] seems to result in silver- or crimson-scaled warriors, while [[green iron]] leads to bronze-, copper-, or sable-scaled ''koboldi'' heralds appearing. [[Tempest jade]] appears to invariably produce azure-scaled ''koboldi'' who express a particular enjoyment in shattering the weapons, shields, and armours of enemy combatants.

	The ritual often involves a map of the mine to be [[enchantment\|enchanted]]; in the case of the [[Urizen]] a map of the entire area may be studied, and that information woven into the invocation itself.

If the ritual is performed with the intent that the ''koboldi'' protect a particular [[fortification]], maps of that castle's location might also be an element.

	A note in the ritual remarks that the ''colour'' of the ''koboldi'' seems to be related to the primary material produced in the mine. An [[orichalcum]] mine sees golden- or emerald-scaled ''koboldi'' arrive to fight on behalf of the owner. [[Weltsilver]] seems to result in silver- or crimson-scaled warriors, while [[green iron]] leads to bronze-, copper-, or sable-scaled ''koboldi'' heralds appearing. [[Tempest jade]] appears to invariably produce azure-scaled ''koboldi'' who express a particular enjoyment in shattering the weapons, shields, and armours of enemy combatants.
