Sometimes found in African traditions, and
in colonial New England witchcraft as a means to
withstand torture, this ritual chant costs 1 SAN and
6 WP. For about an hour, the subject feels no physical
or mental pain or distress. The ritual alleviates the
effects of temporary insanity or an acute episode of a
disorder. It has no effect on permanent insanity; the
subject’s mind has changed too severely to be soothed.
Nor does it reduce damage in any way.
