Ritual System
Imagine you can trigger a blood moon by bringing 4 thralls to a certain spot, within a certain time frame, do some kind of steps and sacrifice them causing the next risen moon to be one of blood.
* Craftable Ritual Sites that you can place anywhere including outside of your territory. They would decay before long, you could only have one active per Vampire, and building a new one causes the former to immediately decay. There could be different types of ritual sites like Bone Altar, Pentagram, Cauldron, Ritualistic Fire Pit, etc. Each type of site used with different schools of magic and used to manifest different varieties of effects.
* You bring specific reagents to a Ritual Site, do whatever actions the ritual requires, such as igniting the Fire with Chaos Magic after the Reagents are in, and it causes humans within a radius of the ritual to go crazy and begin fighting each other.
* Books and puzzles found within the world that detail the rituals that exist as well.

JoshuaI like this idea, but I say take this a step further with resources already in the game. Instead of sites, let’s use ritual stones. If you know about the Siege Golem stone, you’ll kind of get the idea. These “Ritual Stones” can start rituals, and each one has a different effect. Once placed on the ground, it will notify the server that a ritual has begun. For the next 150s, the ritual will charge just like the Golem, allowing for other players to stop the rituals if they desire. After the duration, one or more players can activate the ritual to gain its effect for 300s. Some rituals can have “side effects” that benefit vampires in the area or the server, such as making the next night a Blood Moon night. They’re also expensive, requiring lots of Scourgestone, Blood Essence (Greater or Primal), and Gem Dust. As well as other ingredients specific to each ritual stone, such as Stone Bricks to make Siege Golems.

StephanIf weather is implemented, I would love to see a "rain dance" ritual or the like to call for desired weather, "fog ritual"
Also, perhaps a ritual to summon the undead commander to fight? -

GunnarIt seems more realistic to have a calendar for the bloodmoon than ritual summons; you need to consider how many players there is on a server. If all 40 players have this readily available to them, then it would spiral out of control and feel like less of a blessing.

Broc WThere is a "Sacrificial Site" to the west of the Hauted Iron Mine, would be nice to utilize it by sacrificing Charmed villagers and such.
