Ritual Magic
Ritual magic allows you to cast spells that you do not have memorized or don’t even know, by sacrificing several spell slots.
Casting
To cast such ritual magic, use the ritual magic feat that all non-beginner spell casters get automatically. It is gained when you can cast level 2 spells in any class.
You will be asked for the ritual code.
The code is the first letter of your spell casting class name followed by the ritual number from the ritual numbers table. For example a wizard casting any ritual magic should use w#. The entry screen has tabs that allow you to browse spells by spell level.
Then you should cast spells that you use to charge up the ritual. You will need to use a minimum of spell level*4-your spell casting level in that class spell levels. Thus a level 3 wizard (maximum level 2 spells) will require 2 less spells levels to cast any wizard spell.
After you have powered the ritual enough, use the ritual maic feat again after having targeted the target you wish to receive the effect.
To succeed in the ritual, you will need to make a successful spell craft roll against DC 10+spell levels needed.
Each extra spell level used above the needed will reduce the DC by 1.
After the ritual the spell is cast at the thing you targeted when you used the feat a second time.
Failed rituals often cause chaotic effect
