A paper must be prepared for three days and steeped in kindred blood for that time. The caster and all signatories must spend a point of blood to activate the contract. The contract must be written out of character and submitted to no fewer than three staff members. The contract must be entered into willingly by all parties, no mental compulsions can apply. The contract is also limited to agreements for all parties involved to perform or not perform a service by a specific time. This contract is adjudicated by a spirit, called when the contract is written. The spirit is badly biased against the caster and for any other parties.

Caster bathes a tick in a point of their blood then paints a magical sigil on it. They then somehow place the tick on the victim requiring you to touch the victim on the head. The victim makes a perception related mental challenge vs the caster's physicals with subterfuge as a retest, defender gets awareness as a retest. Once the tick has been successfully deployed it burrows into the ear and at sunset each day the tick reduces their mental traits by one permanently. It is a medicine test of 15 traits with 3 retests. This continues until the victim is reduced to 1 mental trait. The tick then dies of starvation. This ritual takes an action to cast.

If they are instantaneous like Shape of The Beast, Shadow Body etc, they must be re cast to take effect. The victim, and usually also the caster cannot change forms while the stone touches them.

The victim, and usually also the caster cannot change forms while the stone touches them. Touching a target with the stone requires a successful Brawl, or athletics attack to throw the stone. This attack does no damage but forces the transformed character to make a Self Control test (Dif 4) (This is not a frenzy so Willpower/ permanent self control expenditure does not apply) Failure results in them losing their transformation. Once activated the stone loses its potency over the course of a night. The ritual ends any power with the Transformation Keyword

  The caster invests a point of their blood in a cat, their total blood pool is reduced by one. The cat gains a malign sentience. The cat then goes out to find a sleeping child. Their breath is stolen in the night, if this happens to the same child over 3 nights they will die. The cat returns with the baby's breath and breathes into the nostrils of the caster. The caster regains a willpower and their blood pool and the cat return to normal. The cat will almost inevitably return with the willpower in 2 hours if their master is where they left them. If the caster has moved the cat will try and find the master as best it can. If the cat is in some way interrupted or imprisoned and cannot return to its master the caster will only regain use of their invested blood point or points when their willpower is at full by whatever means. Tracking down the cat may be prudent.

First note there are some rules regarding the duration of this spell. When this spell is learned one can learn one of three versions. Version 1: It can be maintained by someone performing a rite over the jar at a difficulty of 5 traits 1 retest every night. Version 2: if done on a willing subject the subject loses an exp track for 1 month, if done on the unwilling the caster loses an exp track for a month. In either case the spell is permanent. Version 3. Neither the Heart nor the subject can move from the city in which it was removed from the subject without crumbling to ash. So long as both heart and subject remain in the city the spell is permanent. In all cases if this ritual is unwoven or dispelled the subject dies. In order for the spell to be ended nonfatally the heart mus be replaced in the subject (a medicine challenge 15 traits 3 retests)

The target must be helpless to do this ritual. The Heart remains in Stasis unless something happens to the Jar. Replacing the heart Requires a Dif 4 Medicine test.
