	While the ritual is not tied to any particular supernatural power, some magicians speak of being urged to strike down anyone who crosses them, of fighting an internal battle to resist the urge to unleash harmful magic against anyone who so much as looks at them a little askew. Others have reported perceiving these urges as being an actual voice speaking to them from a position just behind their left shoulder. While the ritual has never been [[Declaration#Declaration_of_Interdiction\|interdicted]] it has come close more than once, primarily due to concerns from the [[Sevenfold Path]].

	''Ravenous Tongue of Entropy'' allows a magician to perform three potent battlefield incantations without having to study them. Many ritualists focus entirely on mastering rituals, and this [[enchantment]] allows them to 'unlock' their reserves of personal mana and use them in dangerous situations to destroy their enemies. It also sees some use in allowing a magician who already possesses a good store of personal mana to expand their versatility, or bring their anger to bear on those who have wronged them.
