Investiture/Divestiture

This Ritual forms or breaks a link between a Circle of Power and a Spirit. Investiture forms a link allowing the Spirit to control whom the Circle recognizes and to use its inherent powers. The Investiture lasts for the entire existence of the Circle of Power or until the Divestiture Ritual is cast upon the Target in the same Circle of Power. This Ritual does not count against the 20 Ritual limit upon a Spirit. The Target may refuse an Investiture Ritual, but not a Divestiture Ritual.

The Ritual must be cast in the Circle where the link is being created. The Ritual Caster must be invested in the Circle where the link is to be created. The Spirit that is to be Invested must be present in the Circle where the Ritual is being cast.

An invested Spirit outside the Circle can cause the Circle to recognize him or herself by physically touching it. An invested Spirit within Line of Sight of the Circle can cause the circle to recognize any other beings and allow them access at will without need of physically touching it by incanting "The Circle recognizes you". This can be done while under the effects of a Silence Spell (This is necessary so everyone can OOG hear the recognition). Only a Spirit in a body or an animated form (such as a Construct) can use the circles inherent powers.

This Ritual requires 3 reagents as listed on the scroll.
