This ritual was developed by a Lasombra that, like most everybody, was searching out ways to cheat death. By utilizing his ability to transfigure his body into the Tenebreous Form, as well as his abilities to manipulate the shadowy stuff of the abyss he discovered a way to remove a peice of his very Self and lock it away incase of the destruction of his physical body on any particular night.
This ritual lasts 24hrs once cast. If not used in that 24hr period, it dissipates and all stored "Temper" aspects return to the caster at the next sundown, unless, that is, the caster meets their "Final Death".
The caster begins the ritual by choosing a dark place of stationary shadow that never sees direct sunlight. After an hour of reflection, contemplation and meditation bathed in a cloud of incense and smoke from smoldering herbs, they utilizes the Tenebreous Form and forces a portion of their own being to bond with the chosen shadow and seperate from their physical form. The amount that they bond to the shadow decides how long after "Final Death" they reform fully from that dark seed of themself.
By expanding atleast 3 temp Willpower and 3 temp mental traits the user supplants that part of himself in the chosen shadow. If that night the caster meets thier "physical destruction" by any means, they immediately begins to regrow from that seed of themself taking 9months to reach full rebirth. This time can be shortened by 3 months for each additional 3 temp will and 3 temp Mental traits per 3 month period of growth he wishes not to wait through( 3w+mt=9months/6w+mt=6months/ 9w+mt=3months) to a minimum of 3 months gestation time.
All expendatures must be made at time of preparation/casting and the caster does not have access to any of the Temps that are utilized until the next sunrise or until the ritual is successfully completed.
Once cast, this ritual can only be stopped by exposing the casting location to naturally produced sunlight. Meaning light produced by the Sun, not by man made means.
