Ritual Description:

The Spirit Lock Ritual is used to forge a magical connection between an object and a person with a Spirit. The Targeted item and person must both be in physical contact with the Ritual Caster within the Circle of Power during the casting of the Ritual. The item must be considered a possession of the Target Spirit and must be physically movable by that Spirit when in their normal Body. The Ritual must be cast on the item and person simultaneously, though only one Ritual casting is required.

The item may be stored anywhere upon the person but may not be removed from contact with the Body that contains the Spirit. While the item is locked, it cannot be separated from the person until the duration of the Spirit Lock expires or the person's Spirit suffers a final death.

While the Spirit is separated from a Body, the item is intangible and invisible and will reform at the place of the Spirit's Resurrection. If the Spirit's Resurrection fails, the item accompanies the Spirit to the graveyards.

All properties given to the item via Ritual Magic will only work for the person to whom it is Spirit Locked. The Spirit Locked item may not be transferred from the Spirit to another Spirit, and any attempt to do so will automatically fail.

Note: A Destroy Magic Ritual on a person with a Spirit Locked item will destroy the Spirit Lock Ritual and all other magic of the appropriate Aspect on the person but will not affect any Rituals on the item except the Spirit Lock. Likewise, casting the Destroy Magic Ritual on an item that has been Spirit Locked to a person will destroy the Spirit Lock and all other magic of the appropriate Aspect on the item, but will not affect any Rituals on the person except the Spirit Lock.
