Caern Rites

Level One

Rite of Communion

This rite functions in much the same way as the Garou Moot Rite, save for the fact that it is designed to open multi-Breed moots. Each of the Ahadi Breeds is honored in turn, and each calls out to Gaia in his or her at a caern, the rite is functionally identical to the Moot Rite. Otherwise, it functions in a manner similar to the Bastet rite of Caliah, replenishing the participants' Gnosis and filling them with a sense of well-being.

System: When performed at a caern, the system is identical to that of the Moot Rite. Otherwise, every two successes on a standard roll gives each participant in the rite one temporary Gnosis (round up). Each participant may only benefit from one Rite of Communion per month.

Renown Rites

Generally speaking the Ahadi Code's stance is that the organizational structure of the member races must remain intact. So, there is no unified Renown system among the Ahadi, although a form of status is represented in the game.

Mystic Rites

Level Three

Kundi la Kaida (Pack Rite)

A kundi is a team, herd or group (pl makundi, as in kundi la simba (Pride of Lions)). This rite functions in all respects like a standard pack rite, but it can unite a timu into a kundi with a totem spirit patron.

Although Corax would not lose Raven as a patron spirit, Bastet would lose Jamak and all other Fera would lose personal totems if they possessed them.

Level Four

Ushirikiano la Kanuni Kaida (Ritual of Cooperation)

This is a special rite that grants an individual access to the den-realm that is the Island of Cooperation. Without having undergone this rite, an individual would only have access to the two physical marker islands.

Level Five

Ahadi Rite

This rite is a sacred covenant designed to link the destinies of all participants in the eyes of Gaia and all who serve Her. Entering into such an alliance is no small matter, and a Changing Breed's choice to do so is typically an event of historic significance. This is the rite used to create the Ahadi alliance, and the focus of the rite was, ironically enough, Black Tooth's skull.

System: To perform the rite, each participant donates one permanent Gnosis point to bind a powerful Wyld spirit to a stone tablet, clay pot, or other item of significance. So long as all members of the group abide by the terms of the Ahadi, none suffer any ill effects. Should any one of them violate the terms of the agreement, however, the Wyld spirit is released to harass and possibly destroy the offending party (and perhaps the other rite participants as well).
