Editing Kindred of the East (section)

==Rituals==

Similar to Thaumaturgical rituals, Kuei-jin use Rites to tap and manipulate the Chi of their surroundings.  Many of these are used to communicate and placate spirits, travel through the land of the Yin or Yang worlds, or to utilize the potent reserves of Dragon Nests to traverse vast distances in a blink of the eye.  

All Kuei-jin may learn rites over the course of their unlives, but mostly those of the West and Center directions do so. One just needs to find a willing master, the right materials, and a whole lot of practice.

* '''Chi Rites''': Allow a user to locate places of power, enter the spirit worlds, or make Chi adjustments in their area.
* '''Individual Rites''': Used to commemorate significant changes to their unlives. Normally story-driven, but with mechanical effects.
* '''Social Rites''': Ceremonies used to acknowledge changes that affect the greater community. Another story-driven affair, but also with tangible effects.
* '''Rites of Wind and Water''': Basically Kuei-jin ''feng shui'', where proper Chi line alignments are used to achieve results using power from the spirit world.
