| Rituals focuses upon chanting and tonal notes to perform various magical rites. Though High Magic is not a prerequisite, Rituals is sometimes associated with High Magic because both were established in civilized urban environments. Upon mastering this magical skill, the ritualist may move on to the specialization associated with the Nexus of Power they are connected to. |
