A silver mist spreads across the land, shrouding all within it in silence and fog. Armies wander aimlessly, unable to navigate through the mists, while those who know the land are able to at least find their way with only a few misadventures in the process.
You target one Region with this ritual. You must deliver the Curse Card for this ritual to an Envoy of the Nation containing that Region or to a Veilwalker whose Enterprise is located within the Province that contains the targeted Region for it to have an effect.
The Movement Cost of the Region is doubled.
Any Force that leaves the Region exits in a randomly chosen direction, rather than where they intended to go.
Forces in the Region cannot use the Reinforce Action.
Forces in the Region that attempt to attack another Force or use an Action that would target a specific landmark or geographic feature fail and waste their action on a roll of 4 or less on a 6-sided die. If they roll a 1 they also leave the Region in a random direction and then end their Action.
Any Force that is based in the Province that contains the targeted Region rolls all dice required by this ritual twice and takes the best result.
The locals of the Region are only slightly affected by the mist, but many still get lost and suffer a dire fate due to the distracting and mesmerizing haze.
The effects of this ritual last until the end of the next Round of Downtime, until you remove the Curse, or until the Curse is broken, whichever comes first.
You can overcharge this ritual; by increasing the Ritual Power to 50, you can apply the curse to an entire Province.
If this ritual is performed outside of Veilguard, its required Ritual Power is quadrupled.
