The Reverse Life Force Ritual alters the metabolic state of a Target Spirit. Living beings' bodies will behave as if they have no metabolism; creatures with no metabolism will react as if they have one. In both cases, the Target will be affected inversely by Healing and Necromancy effects, with the exception of Turn/Control Undead Destroy Undead, which would affect you as it would normally, Create Undead would reanimate you as an Undead, and you would still be under the effects of this Ritual. For example, if successfully cast on a living creature, they would treat a Corrupt effect as a Life and vice versa, and would be damaged by Healing and healed by Chaos.

This does not in any way make a living Target an Undead creature nor a legal Target for Undead-specific effects; similarly, an Undead Target under this Ritual Effect will still be Undead and affected by anything that specifically Targets Undead. The casting of Reverse Life Force in no way changes the appearance of the Target Spirit. This Ritual Effect does not change any answers given by a player when Targeted by Healing Arts.

If this Ritual Targets a living creature with a metabolism, it is a Necromancy-aspected Ritual; if cast on an unliving creature or a living creature currently under the Reverse Life Force enchantment, this is an Earth-aspected Ritual.

This Ritual requires 4 Reagents to cast as listed on the scroll.
