I'll update the first post if something gets changed or I got something wrong.
Changelog:
Big Hammer Ritual added
We use an Submerged Wizard as an example.
He took his Thaumaturgic specialization into Summoning and uses all his Foci Slots as Summoning Foci (+4 Complexity)
His Lore and Disciple are both Superb (+5)
So his Effective Lore for Summoning and Binding Rituals is +10.
The example will asume that the Wizards is in no time rush and wants to play it as safe as possible.
The example Wizard has still 2 free Refreshes to get better at Summoning/Binding or to diversify...
Summoning an Hellhound (because those are cool)
An Hellhound has an
Conviction of Mediocre (0)
Stress Track: 2
First step is the Containment Ritual.
Without an Aspekt and an Fatepoint the Hellhound can get an maximum of +4 on his defense Roll.
So theoretical an +5 Containment Riutal would be enough, but since we want to play it safe and the Wizards can use a Containment Ritual 10 without preparation we use an Complexity 10 Containment Ritual...
The Wizard beginns to slowly cast the Ritual (only +1 Power per exchange) so he isnt in danger of an bad roll.
Second step is the Summoning Ritual.
Since we have time, we use an Complexity 10 Summoning Ritual (cast again very slowly)
Third step is the Binding Ritual.
We have two objectives.
1. Binding the Hellhound
2. The Binding should last as long as possible (Time isnt allways available...)
We use 5 Shifts for the Binding and 5 Shifts for an extended duration.
The Hellhound cant succed against the Binding Ritual (without using Fatepoints). If he does use an Fatepoint, he is still Contained and our Wizard cast the Ritual again (which doesnt need preparation).
Lets say the Hellhound doesnt use an Fatepoint but rolls +4 with the dice. So he gets an Stressbox filled.
Our Wizard cast the Ritual again. The Dice are with the Hellhound, again +4. His second Stessbox is filled.
With the third binding Ritual he gets an mild consequence.
With the fourth binding Ritual he gets an moderate consequence.
With the fifth binding Ritual he gets an severe consequence.
With the sixth binding Ritual an exteme consequence.
With the seventh binding Ritual he gets taken out and is bound.
Thats an worst case scenario.
Lets count that where nine Rituals (and for none of those the Wizard got mental stress, correct?)
Those nine Rituals took 90 exchanges (how much would that be in real time?)
With five Shifts into an extended Binding Time, that Hellhound would be bound for 1 month (basis is an Afternoon, right?)
If the Hellhound got experience with being bound and would know that he had no chances...
The process would be over after the third Ritual (30 exchanges).
Even if this was the first time, I dont think he would take an extreme consequence...
Alternate third step: The big Hammer Ritual
Best posible Defense Roll with an Aspect invoked: +6
All consequences: +20 (mild, moderate, severe and extreme)
Stress boxes filled: +3
Extra Time: +5
Would be an +34 Ritual (34 - 10 = 24 shifts needs to be researched/prepared).
+2 for a sacrified chicken
+2 for an mild mental consequence
+4 for an moderate mental consequence
We need 8 tags/assesments for the remaining +16 shift.
We make Lore assesments for the right time (+2), the right symbols (+2), the right Binding outfit (+2).
We make Ressource assesments for better quality Binding chalk imported from Uruquay (+2), an fresh liver of an cow for the Hound to eat (gets into the containment circle) (+2), an Hardcopy of Wolf who Rules (http://www.webscription.net/p-473-wolf-who-rules.aspx) (+2), 5 different Objects into the corner of the pentagramm (1 dog mark with the Wizards name on it, 1 dog collar, 1 lash, 1 whip, 1 sedative) (+10)
We make an Discipline assesment for prober concentration (+2).
Lets count that would be 12 assesments, lets hope 8 of those will be succesfull (if more are succesfull, we save on the consequences)
This ritual would need 34 exchanges to cast.
