Ritual

A Ritual is a complex ceremony that create magical effects.

History
Rituals are as old as magic use itself.

Days of Thunder
The Sarrukh used one of the first rituals to create large numbers of reptilian creatures during the Days of Thunder.

Era of Upheaval
Following the Spellplague, magic use changed the way rituals functioned. Rituals are now set forth in writing and follow specific guidelines.
