Skill	Effect
Talismancy 1	Ritual - Petty Talismancy  Create a talisman that stores any spell or strike costing 2 or fewer stamina. This ritual requires an blank talisman and the appropriate spell/strike being used on the blank talisman by one of the participants. The target of this ritual is both the item being turned into a talisman and the participant providing the skill. Adding more participants lets you create more talismans of the same type at once. You can create an additional talisman for every 2 extra participants, participants that know the skill being used count double but become targets of the ritual. Creating a talisman can only be done at a workshop in downtime or at the portal. Talismans cost 8 Ducatto + 8 Ducatto/level to create. Ritual - Salvage  Break down an existing talisman or magic item into valuable spare parts. Needs 1 participant per level of the item. Must be done at a portal. Requires a bead draw. White gives 25% of the value, Red 75%, black gives nothing and the leader takes a wound as the item explodes.
Talismancy 2	Ritual - Artifice  Make and recharge a magic item that replicates a single L1 or 2 profession or combat skill other than Talismancy. One participant must know the skill you are creating an item for. The targets are an object to be empowered and at least one participant that is providing the skill. L1 Item: 40 Ducatto to create, 32 to recharge. L2 Item: 80 Ducatto to create, 64 to recharge. Ritual - Custom Job  Each week you may make or recharge a single magic item that only works for yourself. This costs 0 Ducatto and otherwise works the same as Artifice.
Talismancy 3	Ritual - Greater Talismancy  As Petty Talismancy but for a spell or strike costing 3 or fewer stamina. Ability - Efficiency You may use an extra talisman per day.
Talismancy 4	Ritual - Masterpiece   You may make and recharge a personal magical device.
