Rituals
Rituals include magical attacks, healing, buffs, debuffs, utility, and resource conversion. Unless an ability says otherwise, using a Ritual in battle costs its listed MP and 1 Action Point.
The table below contains player rituals and is maintained from the Abilities and rituals master list. Enemy-exclusive rituals are listed in the enemy rituals section.

Ritual rules
Magical damage
Most damaging Rituals use Magic Attack, Magic Defense, Magical Evasion, and the Ritual's listed element. Individual Rituals can override one or more of these rules.
Buffs and debuffs
Cosmic Premonition, Dark Shield, Evil Eye, Mark of Insight, Mark of Death, and Induce Anxiety use temporary battle effects. They do not create persistent bathing-duration Blessings or Curses.
Healing and costs
Mending Rituals restore fixed HP amounts and grant Defensive points. Blood Mana spends HP instead of MP. Mana Drain can be cast at 0 MP because it restores MP by draining the target.
Description differences
Sludge Blast's actual Sickness chance is 20%, despite a 25% description. Its tome has descriptive acquisition text, but the corresponding normal event route does not grant the Ritual.
