They have a maximum of 5 hit points, are immune to all roleplay effects and poison and retain access to all known skills. However, they cannot use any abilities that require Faith. An Underweller is the same character and so has all their previous memories. The target is free to roleplay this how they choose. If the target is reduced to 0 hit points, they immediately turn to dust and do not enter a critical or terminal state again. They also turn to dust at the end of the rite’s duration, if not already destroyed. A character who has used May the Gods Witness Me cannot be affected by this rite, as they immediately die and do not enter a terminal state. | ||

The Athria sphere resonances can be found here.
Overload
In addition to losing all hit points, the Weaver(s) immediately suffer a roleplay effect which they continue to roleplay for as long as they wish. The effect should be fitting for the Athria sphere. Some examples include:
- Health and life continuously leech out of you to fuel the failed rite.
- You are overcome with intense debilitating sorrow.
- You are relentlessly attacked by vengeful spirits who died nearby.
- You are filled with immense guilt and self-judgement, along with a need to punish yourself.
Spellweaver Effects
A Spellweaver can call upon the power of the Athira sphere to perform a 10 second Rite that allows them to Identify/Find objects with memory resonance (Carded items), dim a memory, or seance style attempt to talk to dead people (This ability does not deliver “plot” and will often return nonsensical or even wrong information entirely. It is designed to let Spellweavers flavour their RP- interactions and is not powerful enough to replicate the effects of rites like Whispers for the Dead).
Ritecaller Effects
Ritecallers are trained to keep their cool and sharpen their focus even in combat. Any shared rite marked with this symbol * has its 30 second cast time reduced to 10 seconds.

Memory Storm *
| Cast Time | 30 seconds |
|---|---|
| Time to Deliver | 1 minute, if ranged instantaneous |

| Cast Time | 1 minute |
|---|---|
| Time to Deliver | 10 minutes |
| Cost | 1 Air or Water Flicker |
| Duration | 1 hour |
| Range | Touch through Focus |
If a hex is not delivered to the target within 10 minutes, the caster could choose to take it instead, or the caster could choose to go into overload. Hex Options: - You are able to see the bones of living people inside their flesh. This may be horrifying or fascinating.
- You pick up random strong memories from an unknown source, causing brief episodes of fear/anger/grief over something no-one else can see.Flashing before your Eyes
