Koldunism Level 1

All things in nature contain a spirit of some type, which are referred to as leleks (pronounced LAH-lek; Hungarian for "spirit"). Koldunic Sorcerers must first be able to recognize a nature spirit before they can manipulate them into servitude properly. This ritual is requisitely cast often, thereby reinforcing the koldun's attunement to the land and nature. many of the old koldun did not simply trust that their attunement to the land would remain intact. Rather, they dedicated one night out of the week to completely reconnect with the spirits of their land. These leleks are more recognizably "felt" rather than visually perceived. A lelek traveling on a breeze close to the koldun might instill a static sensation in the back of the of the sorcerer's neck. Healthy trees might seem to have a faint verdant glow about their trunks. Whichever way he believes to perceive these spirits, the koldun awakens to a new sense after casting this ritual.
System: The koldun's player spends one point of blood and makes the roll. Each success he accumulates increases the duration of his attunement to the nature spirits of the four natural elements.

1 success: 1 hour
2 successes: 1 night
3 successes: 1 week
4 successes: 1 month
5 successes: 1 year.
