This ritual allows the priest to recover the lost body parts of a faithful victim, and consequently in some cases breaking rituals that employ these parts of the body.
Performing this ritual takes several hours and should be performed on the new moon.
The ritual master should make, of wheat and clay paste, fourteen sculptures of each dismembered piece of Osiris, which represents part of the victim body, linked to other rituals.
Each sculpture will help the priest to recover a body part of the faithful victim, and in some cases, break the ritual with this body part as component.
The fourteen sculptures represent one of the following body parts: Head, feet, arm, heart, breast, thigh, eye, hand, finger, phallus, vertebrae, ear, neck, and shin bones.

The priest should place each sculpture over the lying victim body and bathe the sculptures with the faithful victim blood from the very body part.
Blood points, hairs, eyes, skin, flesh, or any body part lost can be recovered by this ritual. The sculpture will mystically appear in the place where the original one was trapped before, and the victim will be able to heal lost or removed limbs as though it were aggravated damage.
This ritual only may break rituals or disciplines powers up to Intermediate, Advanced rituals or Disciplines powers are not affected by it.

System:
The ritual must be performed on the new moon, expend Temporary Willpower trait and heal aggravated damage according to how the limbs were removed:
- One level of aggravated damage and one Temporary Willpower trait for lost limbs or used in Basic Rituals / disciplines.
- Two levels of aggravated damage and two Temporary Willpower traits for lost limbs used in Intermediate Rituals / disciplines.

The Willpower traits needed, and aggravated damage taken are cumulative if the victim wants to recover body parts from different levels.
Example: It is necessary three Temporary Willpower traits and three aggravated damage to recover lost limbs from Basic and Intermediate Rituals.

This ritual does not work to recover body parts consumed in rituals / disciplines, such blood point expended, and does not break rituals where the True Name is used.
Only rituals / disciplines that used body parts can be broken this way.

Any body part recovered will be regenerate on the faithful victim once it heals the aggravated damage taken.
The priest can recover the limbs removed and preserved in any matter this way, which includes used in rituais up to Intermediate, Vicissitude, and so on. The ritual does not have effect in Advanced rituals, disciplines powers or higher.
