Ritual Description:

This Ritual creates a Construct and allows the caster to control it. The caster may not give the Construct a command to obey another individual. Construct may only follow simple commands; these commands may not involve decision-making and may not be longer than 20 words. Examples of acceptable command are: Kill them, defend me, hold them, pick the sword up, attack them, move X to Y, Kill anything that comes through the door. Examples of unacceptable commands are: follow their orders, take this to a specific person, follow them and come back here when they get to X. Whether a command is acceptable or not is left to the discretion of your local campaign rules committee.

The Construct created will last for 20 LP or until killed, whichever comes first. This Ritual may be extended by normal means. Extending a Construct Ritual is difficult: for the purposes of reagent cost and the number of Rituals on the item being extended a Construct is considered a 19 Ritual item. No additional Ritual placed on a Construct may have its duration extended. Constructs created by this scroll can never contain a Spirit through any means, Ritual or otherwise.
