-  * sacrifice flesh in place of supply
-    * blood renewal: sacrifice flesh to gain energy regen equal to flesh lost. at end of exploration turn, heal sacrificed flesh for free. dunno, replicable via healer's regen trick, maybe a no go
-    * life inversion, cause enemies to lose flesh when regaining energy and cause self to regain energy when losing flesh

+Ritualists are practitioners of blood magic, which in terms of game mechanics mostly means they can save a lot of money by suffering a little pain instead. Many Ritualist abilities carry a cost in Flesh, which means that prudent Ritualists often multiclass as something that has options for restoring it such as [[Healer]] or [[Ghoul]].

+^{{ra>eye-shield?48|Protection}} ||{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Lifeline:** As an action, you can establish a mystic bond with any creature within 20 meters of your position. You and the other participant in the bond can both choose at any time during your turn as a free action to send one or more points of Flesh to the other participant. The donor loses the Flesh, and the recipient gains it. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Voluntary Only:** Any transfer of Flesh via a Blood Bond must be done voluntarily. You can certainly always ask your partner to send you some Flesh, but you cannot ever compel it from them. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Limits:** You can only create one blood bond at a time, and it disappears at the end of the current exploration turn. Flesh can only be transferred via a blood bond if the participants are within 20 meters of each other. |
+|{{fa>caret-right?24}} ^{{fa>star?24|Alternative}} |{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Blood Network:** When you establish a bond, you can choose to establish it with a maximum of five creatures (yourself plus up to four others) at once. Any participant can choose to send Flesh to any other participant so long as they are within the 20 meter range. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Networking Cost:** Establishing a blood network requires a sacrifice of 1 Flesh. Blood networks disappear at the end of the current exploration turn just like normal blood bonds do. |
