Ritual (concept)
A ritual is a Magical act that requires significant planning and preparation. Unlike Cantrips, which can be casted on the fly and therefore provide passive bonuses as soon as they are learned, rituals need to be actively casted by a character for their (usually powerful but temporary) effects to occur. Mana is used as their fuel, and Gold is often also needed to provide for the necessary ingredients, equipment and hired help required for a proper casting. Furthermore, this process is not without risk, as rituals can fail and inflict completely unpredictable effects on the caster and those in the vicinity.
