Rites
Rites are long form Rituals that call on the spirits to do something, or call on the people attending the Rite to do something and be rewarded or punished for it. Many Rites dont have hard statistical numbers attached to them and instead have more narrative effects. Rites take 10 minutes or take a Time action to cast between games. Any Garou of any rank can learn any rite. Casting the rite requires an occult check. All Rites require a difficulty 3 check.
Players can create new rites. Just submit them to staff.
Basics:
Rite of Cleansing: Removes taint of the Wyrm from an area and the beings within it. Causes wyrm creatures to smoke. The difficulty of the check is determined by the ST, with some areas being so steeped in Wyrm that removing the taint is beyond the scope of this ritual.
Rite of Contrition: Ritual of saying you are sorry to someone or a spirit.
Rite of Renunciation: Changes your Auspice and moves you back down to Rank 1
Rite of the Moot: Cast at the beginning of any Sept meeting.
Rite of Opened Caern: Summons the spirit of a Caern
Rite of the Departed : Performed on a Garou to ensure their soul reaches the afterlife.
Talisman Dedication: Cast on Clothing or items that you would like to have with you when you shift forms. Otherwise clothing rips and tears. Fetishes do not need to be picked.
Advanced
Rite of Open Skies: Like Rite of Cleansing, but encompasses an entire Caern.
Rite of the Loyal Pack: Performed by Theurge or Galliard before a pack sets out. Success grants all the members a phantom Willpower for the day.
