Priesthood

These come from our book of prayers and have been vetted by the Sybil and given into the care of the Goddess. <!--sizeo:3--><span style="font-size:12pt;line-height:100%"><!--/sizeo--><b>By Karak:</b><!--sizec--></span><!--/sizec--> Hear us as we give thanks O'Goddess.

[b]Karak:[/b] *[i]smiles at the assembly[/i]* Friends, august company and those new to the realm. Welcome to this the inaugural White Service of the Children of the Eclipse. White Service? I hear you say. Yes, white. In the future, you may hear of the Red, but today it is white in recognition of the Goddess in her gentler moods, calling for peace. When the Red moon calls bloodletting shall be permitted during the service to honor the Goddess with sacrifice. But for now let us rest in the arms of the white goddess. For those of you who don\'t know me my name is Karak and I stand as Captain of the Knights of the Moon But also this day I stand before you has priest of th…

The concept of the ritual my character performed is a grounding ritual that you perform in meditation with a tree, or a plant. [url="http://www.meditationescape.com/grounding-meditation.html"]Scroll down to 'Sample Grounding Meditation'[/url] Explaination: You approach a tree if you feel that the tree accepts you coming into it's space, and kneel. You place your palms against the tree's trunk and tell it a story (whether it be something about your life, or something that has happened recently that has caused an emotional distress in you, just tell it a story.) - all the while feeling the tree's solidness against your hands. Try to feel in tune with the earthly energ…

PREAMBLE The axis has shifted. The world is returned unto balance. Look to the skies. Give thanks for Her return. Great Goddess, the Children of the Eclipse welcome thee. ANNOUNCEMENT Friends, moon-worshippers, seekers, welcome. This is a “red” worship service of the Children of the Eclipse in honour of our tripartite Goddess. As in the days of old, we offer blood to Her: but in the realm of MagicDuel, we offer not the blood of animals, but of ourselves. Dueling - battle - is not only permitted at this service but encouraged. If you seek a peaceful form of worship, go elsewhere! Yet all are welcome among us, faithful and unfaithful alike. We ask only that…

I took the liberty to record the events and happenings of the Service. Here they are. Thank you Orchid for this wonderful service. Phantom Orchid: Goddess of the Moon , Queen of the night; Keeper of mysteries, Mistress of the tides. You who are ever-changing and yet always constant. Guide me with your wisdom, help me grow with your knowledge, Phantom Orchid: and hold me in your arms. : Phantom Orchid lights a white Moon-shaped candle on the south end of the table and reflects upon recent events. : [Spell] Lunar Introspect : Phantom Orchid begins to stare into a bowl of water with a lump of salt beside it resting on the west end of the table. In the bowl of water …

Most DayWalkers find secluded spots by clans or families to do this ritual. This ritual is done to rejuvenate their ability to enthrall their "donors" and must be done once a month and takes about 30 minutes. It is also believed but not PROVEN that the moon is also the source of the DayWalkers souls. The prayer words are specific to each idividual or group and have absolutely nothing to do with the bathing ritual at all. Funny that... <img src="http://magicduel.invisionzone.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/blink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="blink.gif" /> [DayWalker(s) disrobe and raise their hands up to the moon.] &l…
