Rules

Urizen Lore

This ritual is part of Urizen lore rather than Imperial Lore. Any Urizen character with the appropriate lore can master or perform this ritual. A character from another nation who mastered the ritual before it became part of Urizen lore may still perform it, but does so under the usual rules for performing a ritual learned from a ritual text.

Performing the Ritual

Performing this ritual takes at least 2 minutes of roleplaying. While performing this ritual the ritualist must write a message on a piece of parchment using their own blood. The message can be up to thirty-one words long but must include three different names of the eternal Agramant as part of that count. At the completion, the reverse of the message must be marked with a bloody handprint using the caster's own blood.

During the ritual the caster must cut themselves with an edged weapon, sufficient to cause the loss of 1 hit.

Bloody handprint
The requirement for the caster to cover the palm of one hand in their own freshly drawn blood means that performing the ritual will require the use of red paint or fake blood. The palm and fingers should be notable reddened by the peformance, and the hand pressed against the parchment while still wet. Obviously the "blood" can be washed off after the completion of the ritual, but as part of the casting it should be obvious that one of your hands is covered in blood.

During the ritual the caster must cover the palm of one hand in their own freshlydrawn blood (represented with red paint or fake blood).

Effects

Assuming the message is prepared correctly, the message disappears and is received by the Winter eternal Agramant; the paper should be given to the referee.

This ritual does not transfer pictures or items.

The eternal knows exactly who cast this ritual; they are under no obligation to respond but may do so if they wish.

Description

This is a placeholder page for content that PD are actively working on.

This ritual sends a message to the wicked eternal Agramant. The eternal is under no obligation to respond, but knows exactly who performed it. Obviously, while Agramant is subject to the enmity of the Imperial Conclave it is illegal to perform the ritual - although it is not illegal to master the ritual (nor to possess a ritual text containing the named ritual although that is irrelevant in this case as ritual texts cannot be created from Urizen lore).

The ritual entered Urizen lore a few days before the Autumn Equinox 384YE, apparently as part of a book entitled Ceremonies of the Black Drop Society.

Common Elements

The most important elements of the ritual are the blood of the one performing it, and the need to put a bloody handprint on the reverse of the parchment.
