If you’re a small-time player and think getting your face un-melted is worth letting some dead guy take over for as long as it can, this might just be good enough…

Cost: 5 Minor Charges

Effect: Except for the whole “being possessed by a demon” bit, this functions just like the normal “Spellbreaker” ritual (UA2, pg. 99), mostly because demons don’t much care for their host body being deformed, weakened, or restricted by those annoying old spells. This version accounts for more than 95% of the “Spellbreaker” formulae on the market, because this is the version that demons really like to teach. The price cut conveniently makes this spell accessible to the masses.

Ritual Action: Take a starfish and a stinging jellyfish, living or dead doesn’t matter, but they have to be still be soft. Lace the legs of the starfish between the fingers of your left hand, and the tentacles of the jellyfish between the fingers of your right. Stick your tongue out to make a “raspberry.” As you make this face, crush your two hands (the starfish and the jellyfish) together.
