Description: In the Roman and Etruscan religious practices, a haruspex was a man trained to practice a form of divination called haruspicy; haruspicy is the inspection of the entrails of ritually purified sacrificial animals, especially the livers of sheep or poultry. Thus, haruspicy is a specialization of the general practice of extispicy or the art of inspecting any of the internal organs of animals; extispicy did not originate within the Greco-Roman world. Rather, it is now believed to have originated in the ancient Near East, where it was a common practice of the Assyrians, Babylonians and Hittites. This ritual uses haruspicy to analyze curses, rituals and spells that may have been cast on a specified target. Thus allowing for a basic analysis of the mystical effects under which the target suffers and hopefully permitting the formation of an counter spell or course of action to alleviate the negative mystical condition.
Origin: Benesj Cherno
Ingredients: The liver of a ritually purified sacrifical beast.
Casting: The necromancer choses a sacrifical animal which is ritually purified and feeds it the blood of the victim of the curse or working on three separate consecutive nights. During each feeding, the caster invokes the power of Hecate - the Greek goddess of magic and witches for a clear revelation. After the third and final feeding, the caster sacrifices the animal to the goddess in the name of the victim and reads the signs found in the liver.
System: The more successes the caster gets, the more information is revealed. Successes: 1= Type of Magic / 2 = Strength of the working / 3=Style of the working / 4=Duration of the working / 5=Purpose of the working / 6=Limitations of the working / 7= Signature of the Caster.
Reference: I have found no other parallels in White Wolf canon.
