MET LARP SRD

The dead must put some effort into possessing a body, and it is a far cry from feeling real life again. Through their studies, some necromancers have found ways to attach these lost souls to bodies, albeit dead ones. With this ritual, you may bind a wraith’s soul into a zombie’s body, and for a year-and-a-day you give the spirit some aspect of life. This is different from ordinary possession; the two parts make a new whole. 

Use this ritual to permanently bind a wraith to a zombie by using 1 point of your Blood to carve mystic sigils into the undead flesh as your wraith is possessing it. Any willing wraith may be bound in such a way; should you try to bind an unwilling soul or one controlled by another necromancer, you must first make an opposed challenge using your Necromancy test pool to attempt to gain control of the wraith. 

Once bound, the resulting creature gains the Physical abilities of the zombie with the Mental and Social powers of the wraith, powered by its Pathos. The wraith is not considered to be in possession but is in full control of the body. Powers that are effective against either zombies or wraiths, such as the Sepulchre Path, will be able to affect this creature. These creatures’ function as Stock NPC Retainers, using the lower stock level of the wraith or the zombie for the new entity. 

You may create any number of these creatures up to your levels of Occult skill; should you go above this number, the first soul you bound is forced free of its body, wherever it may be. This ritual lasts for 30 days, or until the zombie is destroyed.
