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 appropriate item as detailed here and the appropriate spell/strike being used on the item 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. Making a talisman costs: Lv1: 24 Ducatto Lv2: 32 Ducatto Ritual - Salvage  Break down an existing magical 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, Black 75%, Red gives nothing and the leader takes a wound as the item explodes.
Talismancy 2	Ritual - Artifice  Make and recharge a piece of magic equipment that replicates a single L1 or 2 profession or combat skill other than Talismancy. One participant must know the skill you are creating equipment 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 piece of magic equipment that only works for yourself. This costs 0 Ducatto and otherwise works the same as Artifice, with the same restrictions. This may be performed in uptime, the same as any Ritual.
Talismancy 3	Ritual - Greater Talismancy  As Petty Talismancy but for a spell or strike costing 3 or fewer stamina. This costs 56 Ducatto. Ability - Efficiency You may use an extra talisman per day.
Talismancy 4	Ritual - Masterpiece   You may make and recharge a personal magical device. This costs no money to create or recharge, does not count as your one piece of magic equipment, is permanently attuned to you and can replicate a single L1-3 Combat or Profession skill. You may only have one of these in existence, creating a second one destroys the first. Ritual - Attunement Perform this ritual with someone who knows the skill you want your personal magical device to copy. Your personal magical device now holds that skill for you. You may only update your device once a week.
Talismancy 5	Ability - Prototype  Can attempt to create novel magic equipment or talismans with effects similar to known skills or entirely novel functions. Expense may vary.
