-Each level of the four Immu may be used to cast rituals that relate to the four elements. These rituals may be short and have small effects, or longer and more elaborate providing greater effects.  Additionally when doing something that matches the Immu being used, the effect can be created quickly, or with a reduction in the rituals difficulty.+Each level of the four Immu may be used to cast rituals that relate to the four elements. These rituals may be short and have small effects, or longer and more elaborate providing greater effects. Additionally there are [[setting:immu_rebuild| spells]] which allow you to use fast and near instantaneous, but specific, feats of elemental magic.

 Willpower can be spent to help offset these success thresholds.  For each point of willpower spent as part of casting, you reduce the ritual's success threshold by one step.  So if you create a long duration ritual, but spend 2 points of willpower in the casting, you treat it as a short duration ritual for the purpose of how many successes are needed. Willpower can be spent to help offset these success thresholds.  For each point of willpower spent as part of casting, you reduce the ritual's success threshold by one step.  So if you create a long duration ritual, but spend 2 points of willpower in the casting, you treat it as a short duration ritual for the purpose of how many successes are needed.

-If a ritual is cast at spell speed duration becomes a function of total successes, lasting one round for each success you gain in casting.  For offensive magics duration is always instantaneous, and successes are used to determine if the spell hits, and how much damage it does. 
  
 Additionally Wards and Enchantments have their own rules for duration and cost as explained below. Additionally Wards and Enchantments have their own rules for duration and cost as explained below.

 For example, by using a clay pot marked with symbols of air a Teomallki is able to store lightning inside a bottle using Respiro 2 (Strike). Sending forth grenades of pure thunder to strike at others. Using this method the Respiro 2 effect essentially becomes an instant action to be used in a mission.\\ For example, by using a clay pot marked with symbols of air a Teomallki is able to store lightning inside a bottle using Respiro 2 (Strike).

-A Teomallki with Alitu is attacked by a servant of darkness.  In defense of himself he wants to hurl fire at his enemy.  He has a lighter to create flame for him, and the ST has him roll Alitu + Dexterity at difficulty 6.  The player rolls and gains 4 successes.  The target rolls a dodge and only gains 2.  The Teomallki has 3 dots in Alitu so the base damage is 3 + 2 successes from rolling more than the opponent for a total of 5 aggravated health levels of damage dealt to the target as the ST determines that in this case fire would be aggravated.\\+A Teomallki with Alitu is attacked by a seeker of blood cult. He doesn't plan on going down gently.  He has barricaded himself at a gas station with a lighter to create flame for him, and the ST has him roll Alitu + Dexterity at difficulty 6.  The player rolls and gains 4 successes.  The target rolls a dodge and only gains 2.  The Teomallki has 3 dots in Alitu so the intensity of the fire is 3.
