System

To cast this ritual, you must summon up to 3 Arms of the Abyss which you ceremonially sever and consume. Each Arm of the Abyss you consume in this way lowers your maximum number of Arms of the Abyss by one. For the remainder of the night, you may activate this ritual once per each Arm of the Abyss previously consumed.

Thereafter, whenever you are Grappling another character, you may spend a simple action to activate this ritual. If you do, you may disengage from the Grapple and take up to one step, leaving behind a shadow copy of yourself which will continue to restrain the target. The shadow has 3 health levels, and it can only maintain the Grapple; it cannot attack, and if the target gets free the shadow disappears. Its pools are identical to your own current test pools, including any modifiers or bonuses. Whenever a shadow used for Clap of Shadow is destroyed or its Grapple ends, your maximum number of Arms of the Abyss increases by one.
