======Conflict======

====Class Feature: Powered by Conflict====

  * Conflict Weavers cast spells using Charge. 
  * Conflict weavers gain 1 point of Charge for the following:
        * In combat: Landing a successful blow on an enemy 
        * In combat: Taking a blow from an enemy
        * Out of combat: arguing for 10s  
  * NB: a genuine conflict has to exist with the target of your conflict. Friends letting you hit them will not generate charge; arguments have to have //teeth// and be designed to anger. 
  * When you cast a conflict spell, you deplete all accumulated Charge, dropping to 0 Charge.
  * Conflict spells cannot gain the caster Charge. 
  * Charge is lost between encounters. 

===Rituals===
  * Rituals give weavers the ability to try more freeform magic to have greater or more long-lasting effects than normal spells. 
  * The ritualist will specify an outcome they hope to attain by peforming the ritual.
  * A bead bag is used. By default, the bag contains two white and one black bead.
  * Then, the ritualist must draw beads from the bag until they draw a white or black bead.
  * A white bead indicates success.
  * A black bead indicates failure.

==Collaboration==

  * Weavers with the ritual skill can collaborate to bring about a more complex or powerful effect.
  * Each weaver must be performing a ritual of the same level.
  * For each weaver collaborating in this way, add one black bead to the bead bag.
  * Weavers of opposing planes (Conflict <-> Connection; Erosion <-> Perfection) cannot collaborate.
