 ====Class Feature: Powered by Perfection====
-  * All spells cost one psyche.
+  * All spells cost one Essence.
-  * At the end of each encounter:
+  * Starting level Perfection Weavers begin with 2 Essence.
-       * Gain 1 psyche.
+  * Essence is restored between encounters.
+==Planar Influence==
+  * When travelling in Perfection, you may, once per encounter, choose to gain Essence equal to your maximum spell charges.
+  * When travelling in Erosion, your Essence is halved (rounded up).
+===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 performing the ritual.
+  * A standard ritual takes 2 minutes to cast. The ritualist may, if they wish, choose instead to cast the ritual instantaneously. This is not without risk and carries a 50% chance of something going seriously wrong with the ritual.
+  * Ritual cast times are halved in a complimentary plane and doubled in an opposing plane.
