Construct

The Construct Ritual creates a specified Construct based on the difficulty cost and allows the Ritual Caster to control it. Constructs may only follow simple commands; these commands may not involve decision-making and may not be longer than 20 words.

• Examples of acceptable command are: kill him, defend me, hold him, pick the sword up, attack her, move X to Y, kill anything that comes through the door.
• Examples of unacceptable commands are: follow his orders, take this to John, follow him and come back here when he gets to X.

Whether a command is acceptable or not is left to the discretion of your Local Rules Committee. The Caster may not give the Construct a command to obey another character.

The Construct created by this Ritual will last for the duration of the Ritual Effect or until killed, whichever comes first. This Ritual Effect may be extended by normal means, but extending a Construct Ritual is extremely difficult. For the purposes of Reagent cost and the number of rituals on the item being extended, a Construct is considered a 19 ritual item. No additional ritual placed on a Construct may have its duration extended. Constructs created by this Ritual can never contain a Spirit through any means, ritual effects, or otherwise.

The Local Plot Committee should be notified in advance of the Ritual casting, so a proper experience may be supplied. Stat cards provided for the Construct may change per event at the Plot Committee’s discretion. Your Local Plot Committee may also have more specific guidelines for this Ritual casting, at their discretion.
