Gilded Cage, Level Two Ritual
Reference: Player-Made
Description
Building structures strong and powerful and able to withstand the elements is a key factor in any architectural handbook. The ritual allows the caster to link herself to the city’s ley lines and sap some of their power in order to strengthen and harden modern items into stronger and less-prone to destruction tools and building equipment – or mend damaged items of the same variety. The only materials this ritual will work on are steel, glass, stone, processed stone, fiberglass and aluminum. For strengthening items, each success on the initiation roll adds one durability to the item’s rating. For instance, a stone pillar with a durability rating of 2 is used in this ritual and 2 successes are gained – the stone pillar’s durability is raised to 4. For repairing items, each success on the initiation roll causes the material to “rebuild” itself at a rate of 1 Structure per round up to the amount of successes rolled – items completely destroyed cannot be rebuilt. Any extra successes on the repairing roll should be treated as strengthening successes. For instance, a revolver made of steel has taken 3 structure levels of damage (of it’s 4), on ritual initiation the caster gains 4 successes; over a span of 3 rounds the gun repairs itself and at the end is actually stronger for it, gaining one extra durability due to the excess success on the initiation roll.
This ritual only can apply to one item at a time (and only once per item per type of use), and could not be used on say, an entire building because a building is made up of many different steel beams, glass windows and other materials.
System
Line of sight to a structure that has the same properties as the item in question (glass would need line of sight to a building that has glass windows, for instance).
