About Spells
About Spells: Work with deliberation and caution to reap the rewards.
Instructions:
Each spell is unique and may have different requirements.
In general, you will need to purchase both a spell and its corresponding Curio from the vendors.
Note that not every spell requires a Curio.
Some spells are single-use, while others may be cast every day.
Single-use spells burn themselves out after casting.
If you wish to re-cast a single-use spell, you will need to re-purchase it.
Spells cost something and also give something. Example:
Cost in Vitalis: 300–350 (Removes a random amount of Vitalis between 300 and 350).
Required Vitalis: 666 (You must possess a certain amount of Vitalis.)
Reward: 200 Essence (Gives 200 Essence).
Read the spell summary carefully before attempting to cast it.

About
To prepare for this rite, you and your bonded-to-be should set an evening aside
where you can be alone together. On your own, each of you should prepare yourself
ritually: fast for at least an hour prior to performing the rite, drinking only
water but eating no food, and abstaining especially from alcohol, cigarettes,
or any substances that might affect your perceptions. Take a cleansing bath
or shower, allowing the water to wash away any stress, distractions, or
energies you do not want to bring with you to this intensely personal rite.
Prepare the place where this exchange is going to happen. Place pillows on
the floor so you and your bonded-to-be will be comfortable. Place candles or
tealights around the room and dim the electric lights or turn them off completely.
Burn some incense that you both find pleasing and that will help set the mood
for this sacred, intimate exchange. Finally, put on some soft music in the
background. Select this carefully, making sure that both of you resonate with
the music and find its sound conducive to the ritual atmosphere you are building.
Play it loud enough to drown out extraneous noise, but low enough that it does
not detract from the experience, which should ideally be focused on just the two of you.

Set an evening aside where you can be alone and in darkness. Fast for at least an hour,
drinking only water and eating no food, abstaining especially from alcohol, cigarettes,
or any substances that might affect your perceptions. Take a cleansing bath or shower.
Find a quiet and dark place, such as a forest at midnight. Set up your working altar
with perhaps a single candle for light. Meditate on what is about to take place.
When ready, extinguish the flame and remain in total darkness. Recite the spell from memory.
Wait for the entity to make its presence known. Greet it when it manifests before you.

About
Credit: Fieri Bloodrose (infierna.bloodrose)
For vampires and other supernatural beings, the ability to astral project—leaving the
physical body in spirit—is a vital skill that must be mastered. Dim the lights and sit
comfortably with your back supported. Light incense such as sage or frankincense.
Breathe slowly: inhale for four counts, hold for four, exhale for four. Move attention
to the space between your eyes; on each out-breath, visualize your energy extending
into a nearby room. Note what you perceive. You may be seated and yet find yourself
also present elsewhere. Repetition strengthens the experience. While traveling—or just
before attempting—speak the spell.

About
Ritual of the Veil Sight (The Shadow-Sense): To move within the hidden currents of the world,
one must learn to see without sight. For the supernatural, survival depends not upon mortal eyes,

About
Credit: Sue Mowadeng (susan.mowadeng)
You have always been drawn to the dark forest at the edge of town.
One night you decide to reach out and form an alliance with the entity within.
Gather what you need, and at midnight you work your spell. It appears—immense and terrible.
You feel the power in its presence as it asks why you have summoned it. You propose a pact:
in exchange for its aid, you will lure mortal victims into the forest for it to consume.

About
Credit: Sue Mowadeng (susan.mowadeng)
Since the days of the Talmud and long before, mystics have created artificial humans—“golems”—from mud.
They were animated to protect sacred spaces, summon spirits, and other useful tasks.
Collect 600 pounds of mud and bring it to a secluded workspace. Cast your circle and bless your space.
Burn dragon’s blood incense.
Shape a humanoid figure with as much detail as you wish; the more effort you invest, the more astral energy you feed it.
Draw a sigil on its forehead. When your golem is ready, touch the Curios in the correct sequence as you speak the spell.

About
Credit: Fieri Bloodrose (infierna.bloodrose)
Necromancy involves communication with the dead to gain knowledge or understanding of death and the afterlife.
It’s associated with summoning spirits, consulting the dead for guidance, and—within darker arts—raising the dead.

seek contact with beloved family members, friends, or powerful immortals who have passed on.

About
Credit: Fieri Bloodrose (infierna.bloodrose)
A vampire’s ability to hypnotize and control its prey can erase fear, resistance, and even memory.

dangerously, to suppress emotion in oneself or another vampire.

About
Credit: Fieri Bloodrose (infierna.bloodrose)
Resting in native soil—or maintaining contact with an object of profound personal meaning—anchors identity.
Without this anchor, a vampire may grow feeble, lose grip on immortality, and become vulnerable.
Summon Vlad Dracula
Summon Vlad Dracula: (Once per day) This summon rite binds a single Curio to a single keyword, “Vlad.”
When the Horned Shade of the Black Peaks remembers and the word is spoken, the spell is cast.
You will see something rez above the Book if you are successful. You may use this spell once per day for a reward.
Reward: There is a 90% chance this gives 10 to 200 Essence on completion and a 10% chance Vlad is
in a bad mood and will remove 100 Essence from you. Because it’s once per day, casting this spell does not increase SpellWright.
Curios Required:
Horned Shade of the Black Peaks
Cost in Vitalis: 100–200
Required Vitalis: 0
Reward: 90% chance to gain 10–200 Essence; 10% chance to lose 100 Essence.

though only with a 10% chance. It binds a single Curio to a single keyword. You will see something rez
above the Book if you are successful. (Usable once per day.)

About
This is the first spell that requires experience (Vitalis of 1001 or more). The caster draws a trace
of their own Essence into the air, letting it curl into tendrils of dusk. The shadows drink this offering
and fold around the caster like a cloak; form blurs, heartbeat dims, presence slips between notice.

About
This spell requires experience (Vitalis of 500 or more) and strict timing (noon or midnight ±1 hour).
The Black Sun is the hidden star— inverted and hungry. Those who bind themselves to it wield great force,
but their shadows may never walk free again. The Covenant seals Essence to an unseen orbit: power drawn
from the invisible sun, and a binding that never loosens.

About
The Silent Demeter is a chest that must be rezzed in LL water to function.
There are many such places; for example, a public rez zone on the Blake Sea: Barbarossa.
This spell requires experience (Vitalis of 666 or more) and must be performed in LL water.
Demeter, vessel of midnight’s tide,
Bearer of coffins and whispers of the grave,
Your mast creaks with the weight of eternity,
Your sails are sewn with the skin of silence.
I call upon thee, Ship of Endless Night,
To bear my Essence across the black waters,
That I too may drift between the living and the dead.
The Demeter is a fictional merchant ship from Bram Stoker's Dracula that brought Count Dracula to England.
Its last voyage, recorded in the captain’s log, details the crew’s gradual disappearance and ends with the derelict ship
washing ashore. The tale was inspired by the real shipwreck of the Russian schooner Dmitry in 1885.

About
This spell requires experience (Vitalis of 2001 or more) and strict timing (the twilight hours).
The UnVeil of the Moonless Eclipse is the power, — the time between worlds.
Perform this spell when your regular life is starting
to overwhelm the magick and mystery that you feel in the Darkside of your being.
Whenever you are getting bogged down in work or bills or other mundane issues,
pick a cool, clear night, and go out and watch the sun go down.
Stand in an open place, far from people and buildings, where you can
feel the darkness settling over all of nature. The birds settle down
for the night and the night creatures begin to stir. You can hear bats
chirping and fluttering overhead and some of the feral cats in the
neighborhood call as they are stalking through the tall grasses.
The sunset is really just a time of reflection.
Allow it to remind you that the day-lit world is only one half of your existence,
and that in time, it always gives over to something darker, wilder, and more mysterious.
As twilight falls and the light fades from the sky, face the west,
raise your arms above you head, and take several deep, cleansing breaths.
Take in the energy of the night as it begins to wash over the land,
and feel the cool nightwind begin to pick up through the grasses and trees.
Sometimes out loud, sometimes silently to yourself, greet the night.
Drink the darkness in, and allow it to re-awaken that part of yourself
that is also darker, wilder, and more mysterious than anything the mundane
world has to offer. Say a prayer to the night as a reminder
of why you cherish the darkness and why it speaks to you so much.
