Object Reading
Ritual Rank 3 [Omen]
Prerequisites: Eldritch Rank 3
Potency: 15
Components: 1 drop of Magic Essence [Rare, Value: 20gp]
Cost: 2 Resolve Burn
Prep Time: 1 moment
Cast Time: Concentration (up to 1 moment per Eldritch Rank)
Target: One object
Effect: You rub the magical essence onto the target object. After about a minute the object begins to glow, allowing you to focus your mind and read the psychic impressions left on the object by its previous owners.
  • For the first minute that you concentrate on the object, you get a mental image and impression of the object's most recent owner.
  • Each subsequent minute that you concentrate, you gain similar images of prior owners (starting with the most recent and moving backwards). *Once you have reached the first owner of the object, you receive no further information, and the ritual ends.
  • If your Concentration is broken, the ritual ends and you receive no further information (even if you have not viewed all prior owners).
  • If you use this ritual on an object with no previous owners, the ritual fails.
