In all cases, players wanting to take advantage of these options need to do so in downtime, either using the downtime options (upgrades and diversifications) or by emailing admin@ (resource changes).

			* Any shroud ritual cast at less than magnitude 100 will fail. Confirm the players know this – it's not meant to be a trap – and if so, record the ritual, take the players' mana, and let them know it fails. Then let the MattCave know (probably by escalating via Alex, Adam or Erin), so they can check if we ''really'' want to have the ritual recorded in the database.

	* [[EmpireWiki:When Spring comes#A Passing Grade\|When Spring comes: A Passing Grade]]: ~~Marcher covens or magicians~~ casting ~~the rituals~~ Blood and Salt or Merciless Wrath of the Reaver '~~'on Marcher targets'' have the option to invoke~~ a boon from the eternal Siakha - they ~~must invoke her~~ in the ritual by one of her common names (the Maelstrom; the Empress of Sharks; Schiuma Sanguinosa; the Salt-born Devourer; Mother of Wrecks; Blood-in-the-Water~~), and inflict at least 1 hit of damage to the ritual target(s) (IC they make the targets bleed)~~. They must ~~also tell~~ the ~~person recording~~ the ritual ~~that they are doing/have done this~~. ~~Record the fact~~ they ~~they have used this boon in~~ the ~~ritual notes, so that effects can be processed properly after the event. Note also that this is likely to be IC illegal, so don't be loud about it and blow their cover~~.		* [[EmpireWiki:When Spring comes#A Passing Grade\|When Spring comes: A Passing Grade]]: If someone is casting Blood and Salt or Merciless Wrath of the Reaver, they may note that they're invoking a boon from the eternal Siakha. If so, confirm they've met the conditions below, and if so record it in the the ritual notes.

			:The conditions are that, during the ritual:

			:* The characters must invoke Siakha by one of her common names: the Maelstrom, the Empress of Sharks, Schiuma Sanguinosa, the Salt-born Devourer, Mother of Wrecks or Blood-in-the-Water.
			:* They must make the target character of the ritual bleed, i.e. they must do at least one point of damage to the target character.

	* [[EmpireWiki:Shining like fire#You Cannot Hide\|Shining like fire: You Cannot Hide]]: Any attempt to perform these rituals, or rituals with similar effects, with a magnitude of 100 or lower fails immediately. The mana is expended on the attempt to perform the ritual, but there are no effects. If the roleplay has been carried out, the players lose their mana.
	* [[EmpireWiki:Shining like fire#You Cannot Hide\|Shining like fire: You Cannot Hide]]: For the most part, pre-existing Penumbral Veil on Imperial territories and Vales of Shadow have been removed. The exception are those shrouds whose magnitude is greater than 100, were in the territory of Spiral and created with the assistance of Sung, or which were infused with ilium (or otherwise strengthened to the point they became permanent).

			* [[EmpireWiki:Various_storms_and_saints#Scales_and_Thrones\|Various storms and saints: Scales and Thrones]]: Ephisis' Scales can't be used except for pre-arranged trades. If someone tries to cast the ritual ''and it's part of a pre-arranged trade that the player should be able to tell you about'', carry on as normal. Otherwise, confirm the players know about this – it's not intended to be a trap – and if they still want to go ahead (perhaps casting the ritual is important to make some point?), record the ritual, take the players mana, and give them their original phyreps back.

			* [[EmpireWiki:Various_storms_and_saints#Scales_and_Thrones\|Various storms and saints: Scales and Thrones]]: If the casters are Varushkan, check the players know about this Wind – it's not intended to be a trap – and if they still want to go ahead (perhaps casting the ritual is important to make some point?), record the ritual, take the players' mana, and give them their original resources back. If they're not Varushkan, the ritual works as normal.

			== Character deaths ==
			* [[EmpireWiki:Various_storms_and_saints#Scales_and_Thrones\|Various storms and saints: Scales and Thrones]]: This provides an option for players of Varushkan characters to kill their characters. From GOD's perspective, this is entirely normal character death processing; the prompt is a player decision rather than, say, a battle going wrong, but the result is the same.

			* [[EmpireWiki:Hierarchs_of_sea_and_sky#Eyes_on_the_Empire\|Eyes on the Empire]]: Day rituals cast at a regio (i.e. ''probably'' not going to come via GOD) may be able to be cast using two units of weltsilver in place of one unit of crystal mana. See the linked WoF page for the list of rituals; players might be able to use this for some other rituals too – if the players want to try, check with the refs.
			* [[EmpireWiki:Hierarchs_of_sea_and_sky#A_Record_of_Sins\|Hierarchs of sea and sky: A Record of Sins]]: Players might ask that you note that they're shrouded when they record a ritual. If they do, just record that in the ritual notes.

	* [[EmpireWiki:When Spring comes#A Passing Grade\|When Spring comes: A Passing Grade]]: Marcher covens or magicians casting the rituals Blood and Salt or Merciless Wrath of the Reaver ''on Marcher targets'' have the option to invoke a boon from the eternal Siakha - they must invoke her in the ritual by one of her common names (the Maelstrom; the Empress of Sharks; Schiuma Sanguinosa; the Salt-born Devourer; Mother of Wrecks; Blood-in-the-Water), and inflict at least 1 hit of damage to the ritual target(s) (IC they make the targets bleed). They must also tell the person recording the ritual that they are doing/have done this. Record the fact they they have used this boon in the ritual notes, so that effects can be processed properly after the event. Note also that this is likely to be IC illegal, so don't be loud about it and blow their cover.		* [[EmpireWiki:When Spring comes#A Passing Grade\|When Spring comes: A Passing Grade]]: Marcher covens or magicians casting the rituals Blood and Salt or Merciless Wrath of the Reaver ''on Marcher targets'' have the option to invoke a boon from the eternal Siakha - they must invoke her in the ritual by one of her common names (the Maelstrom; the Empress of Sharks; Schiuma Sanguinosa; the Salt-born Devourer; Mother of Wrecks; Blood-in-the-Water), and inflict at least 1 hit of damage to the ritual target(s) (IC they make the targets bleed).

	* [[EmpireWiki:Shining like fire#You Cannot Hide\|Shining like fire: You Cannot Hide]]: Any attempt to perform these rituals, or rituals with similar effects, with a magnitude of 100 or lower fails immediately. The mana is expended on the attempt to perform the ritual, but there are no effects. If the roleplay has been carried out, the players lose their mana.		* [[EmpireWiki:Shining like fire#You Cannot Hide\|Shining like fire: You Cannot Hide]]: Any attempt to perform these rituals, or rituals with similar effects, with a magnitude of 100 or lower fails immediately.

	* [[EmpireWiki:Shining like fire#You Cannot Hide\|Shining like fire: You Cannot Hide]]: For the most part, pre-existing Penumbral Veil on Imperial territories and Vales of Shadow have been removed. The exception are those shrouds whose magnitude is greater than 100, were in the territory of Spiral and created with the assistance of Sung, or which were infused with ilium (or otherwise strengthened to the point they became permanent).		* [[EmpireWiki:Shining like fire#You Cannot Hide\|Shining like fire: You Cannot Hide]]: For the most part, pre-existing Penumbral Veil on Imperial territories and Vales of Shadow have been removed.

			=== [[EmpireWiki:Hakima's Glass]] ===
			* [[EmpireWiki:Hierarchs_of_sea_and_sky#Crystal_Weapons\|Hierarchs of sea and sky: Crystal Weapons]]: If someone tries to cast Hakima's Glass on an unribboned wand or similar to get a boon from Kimus, that can only happen at the regio, as it's being managed by the regio refs. If a player needs to do this in GOD for access reasons, get the refs involved so they can coordinate with the regio team appropriately.

			=== [[EmpireWiki:Gift of Knowledge]] ===
			* [[EmpireWiki:Hierarchs_of_sea_and_sky#The_Gift_of_Knowledge\|Hierarchs of sea and sky: The Gift of Knowledge]]: anyone casting Gift of Knowledge at the regio (i.e. probably not involving us unless there are access issues) may get an additional boon. Because this is being administered by the regio refs, you'll need to pass this off to the ref team to resolve.
