Description: Used primarily to facilitate conversations with the recently departed, though also applied as a method of psychological torture. Puppet prepares a subject (willing or unwilling) as a suitable receptacle for ghostly possession. Over the course of one hour, the necromancer smears grave soil across the subject’s eyes, lips, and forehead. For the remainder of the night, any wraith can attempting to take control of the subject. The ritual’s effects remain even if the soil is washed off.
