Expel Spirit

Items Required: 10 Silver worth of incense, and one bottle of holy water
Chant: Per Christi virtutem te hoc corpus excedere cogo (By the power of Christ I compel thee to leave this body)
Ritual Check: 55
MPI: 80
Duration: Instantaneous | Casting Time: 1d4 hours

Description: By shaking or sprinkling holy water onto the subject's body and burning incense nearby, this ritual is able to be performed. Its chant must be recited for the duration of the ritual, and upon completion of the ritual the spirit either exits the body - or a new ritual must be performed.

On a successful Ritual check, the spirit suffers 1d10 points of damage directly to its Hit Points. It can choose to leave after taking damage, or remain put. However, if the damage would kill the spirit, it is forcibly removed from the individual's body and is destroyed (or if unable to be destroyed, is sent back to its home plane, such as the case with demonic possessions).

Regardless of success or failure, you end up suffering 2d8 points of Resolve and 1d4 points of Sanity damage afterward due to the taxing nature of the ritual.

Training

Exorcists also do well when combined with any other Religious and Magician occupations.
