I created an entire magical order of based on tattooes and jewelry
(Piercing in particular)
They require a great deal from their members including ritual samples
and assorted things.
The tats don't do anything other than denote membership and/or a grade
of initiate but the jewelry is another story. These folks take the
creation of body jewelry very seriously and make some very powerful non
expendible foci for the members. Have ten or fifteen people form a
ritual circle to create your non expendible foci. Then again you do have
the risk of getting addicted to these powerful foci...

to make you make your second shot perfect.

Interesting, so having a "Ritual Enchantment" performed. Yeah, this would be
interesting indeed. Does anyone else have rules for these? I would love to
compare notes...

They are my house rules so I dought it but I might post them to the
archive if enough people
are intersted in my magical orders. I spent a little time and effort on
them but have not published them at this time.

And many others BTW it is required for grade 5 in this order GR&D
If you can stick a piece of jewelry into a body this order requires it
at some point in
time to raise in grade. Then again they are a very powerful enchanting
circle so it's worth
the cost or you can stop rasing in grade...
