Rituals of Terror

Frequently Asked Questions

General Play

• Is the table of actions on p. 24 of Jagged Earth comprehensive, or examples?
  Examples. For instance, Scenario actions aren't listed (though they probably should have been; apologies). We're still figuring out all the types we need, though the default of "whatever component it's printed on" seems to be working really well thus far.

  Note: Spirit Rituals (Rituals of Terror, Rituals of the Destroying Flame) should be Spirit Actions.

Scenarios

• If an effect specifically happens in the Slow Phase, but isn't a Slow Power, how does it work in the Blitz Scenario?
  Exactly as written. Blitz still has a Slow Phase, even if nothing usually happens in it because all Slow Powers are Fast.

• When the players collectively perform the Ritual of Terror, whose Action is it?
  Rituals that are not explicitly associated with one Spirit are Spirit Actions for the purpose of anything that cares what type of Action they are (e.g., Vengeance as a Burning Plague destroying its Presence as part of a Ritual of Terror), but are not an individual Spirit's Action for the purpose of their Special Rules. (No, not even in solo play, for the sake of consistency.)

  In Rituals of the Destroying Flame, it is an individual Spirit doing the Action, and so is that Spirit's Action and can benefit from special rules that apply to their actions.
