Demonic rituals combine several Lores or different evocations to create one single effect. All rituals require a sigil around which the participants stand. A ritual always has a leader, the Ankida, and in most cases several supporters, the Mudu, who provide Lore the Ankida doesn't possess themselves. Additionally, any number of demons or mortals may participate as Khauiki and provide additional power, far beyond the power a demon could muster on their own. Rituals are almost always cooperative efforts - although it is possible to perform a ritual all on your own, this is draining and dangerous. Rituals are also considered proprietary. Usually, the House that provides the Lore central to the ritual is considered to be its proprietor, although there are exceptions to this.
