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 Water sphere. Some examples include:
- You feel yourself slowly liquifying and your flesh becoming ooze-like.
- Your body is frozen by extreme cold and begins to crack and shatter apart.
- You can only breathe underwater, and drown in air like a fish.
- Controlling your own body becomes a secret you forget. Making your organs keep functioning requires great conscious willpower.
Spellweaver Effects
A Spellweaver can call upon the power of the Water sphere to perform a 10 second Rite that allows them to check for non-mechanical poisons and purify mildly contaminated water to make it drinkable (only use OC drinkable water for this).
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.
Rites List

| Shared Rites | |
| Crashing Wave* Cast time: 30 seconds Level: 1 Time to deliver: 1 minute, if ranged instantaneous Extension: 1 Water Flicker for ranged (Each Flicker also increases the rite level by 2) Range: Touch through focus, if ranged 10 metres Effect: The weaver may call Water Blast on their next hit with their focus. When used at range this lets the user call Water Blast at the end of the rite from their position. You may choose to not spend the flicker and use the melee version instead at the end of the rite if your target has moved out of range. | |
| Restorative Burst * Cast Time: 30 seconds Level: 1 Time to deliver: Instantaneous Extension: This rite cannot be extended Range: Touch through focus Effect: The Weaver may call Mend on the target item. | |

| Drowning Argument (Hex) Cast Time: 1 Minute Level: 2 Cost: 1 Water Flicker Time to deliver: 10 minutes Effect duration: 1 hour Extension: Every extra Flicker of Water expended in the rite increases the duration by 15 minutes. (Each Flicker also increases the rite level by 2) Range: Touch through focus Effect: To perform this Rite, please inform a referee before you begin. The weaver may hex the target. The effect of the hex can be selected from the options below or be discussed and designed with the target. OC consent must be given to any hexes modified in that way, and the hexes should be roleplay- based within the flavour of the sphere, and not influence game mechanics. If a hex is not delivered to the target within 10 minutes, the caster could choose to take it instead, or the caster could chose to go into overload. Hex Options: – Various parts of your body start to itch, as if you are healing from a wound. – You occasionally experience sea legs as your gait becomes wobbly, as if walking on waves. | |

You may choose to not spend the flicker and use the melee version instead at the end of the rite if your target has moved out of range. |

The effect lasts up to 5 minutes or until the target breaks it by moving, using abilities, or speaking while under the effect.

Anyone within the designated space will restore their entire Hit Points pool over 10 minutes. This doesn’t cure poisons or traumatic wounds. If you wish to perform this Rite then you need to go to the Weaving tent to pick up an effect card. This card will detail the effect of the Rite and an additional roleplaying effect that applies to anyone within the space. You may request additional cards to attach to multiple entrances to your tent. This may only be cast within a calm and peaceful atmosphere (not on a battlefield, near combat, etc). A space may only have 1 Rite Effect that applies an area effect. A space may also have 1 Weaving Effect in addition to a Rite Effect. |

By weaving Water through their focus, the Weaver sends a wave of Water through their target, washing out any impurities and toxins with the call Antidote. |
| Healing Aura Cast time: 30 seconds Level: 4 Time to deliver: Instantaneous Extension: This rite cannot be extended Range: Touch through focus Effect: The tide rises and falls, but the ocean is without end.
