procedures & Benedictions
updated 1/28/2024 (recent changes are in bold)
A Procedure Blueprint is a series of instructions to cause a specific mechanical effect based on the user having the required skills, resources, time, and environment. Procedures are often linked directly to Ranks of Achievement (PFAs) and have specific requirements for causing the effect outlined. As with crafting, the fact that an individual is performing a procedure should be apparent at a glance by someone passing by, and when an individual is the Target or performing a procedure, they can use no other skills or engage in other activities that detract from the procedure itself. (DR Corebook, p. 173)
Start Up Blueprints are designed for players to use with the local Settings team to create immersive role-playing spaces that allow players to engage with a type of role-play regardless of experience points or skills. These prints often require specific tangible mechanical aspects of roleplay to determine success or failure in creation of the Startup space. Zero resources are required for the production of these spaces and at least 10 players must engage in 30 minutes of active role-play building these spaces in the appropriate Crafting Zone. (from the Blueprint text)
Benediction Blueprints are new types of blueprints designed for use with Faithful Anomaly skills, like Faithful Patterns, Faithful Miracles, etc. These items often require the participants to have certain Anomaly skills, be baptized into a similar faith, or require unique mechanics or conditions to perform. The instructions for how to use these blueprints are included on the blueprint themselves, and they can differ between Benedictions.
During the Great Revival National Event in January 2024, a massive collection of forty-two new Faith-related prints were released to the attendees. While many of these items are Procedures and Benedictions, a few of the items are normal gizmos and equipment. Most of these items require either a psionic Skill or Faith-based Skill to use. We’ve included those here for the sake of inclusion, but they will also appear in the relevant Artisan sections on the Blueprint Checklist.
