Effect

As part of performing this ritual, the leader and participating ritualists may dedicate the chosen space or object to a particular deity.

Upon completion, this ritual imbues an object or area with an aura of calm and serenity.

The roleplay effects return if the character leaves the area or ceases interacting with the object.

If a character spends at least 15 minutes meditating in an area or near an object under the effects of this ritual, they may recover all lost Base Mana and/or Base Prowess up to their maximum. If that character spends any Prowess or Mana or makes or suffers an attack, then that 15 minutes is interrupted and must be started over again.

These effects last until the start of the next Convergence or until another Mark (or enchantment in the case of an object) replaces this one.

Mechanical Note

If you intend to use this ritual in an open area, and especially if you intend to use it on the battlefield, you must consult the safety marshal before you go through the Shadowgate.
