The Marriage Ritual

Two (Or more) willing creatures can engage in a hallowed ritual of love passed down from sylvian herself, granted to humanity so they could they could share with each other a fraction of the love sylvian feels for them.

Upon the succesful completion of the ritual the participants no longer have to fear for separation from their loved one(s), forever joined in a marriage of flesh.

In order to perform the ritual both creatures must be humanoids, have nothing equipped, un-attune from all magic items, and agree on who will control the resulting body. The absorbed creature is refered to as “The Partner”

Upon completing the ritual, the partner is absorbed into the other’s body. The resulting body is called a “Marriage” and its appearance is of both participants clumsily smashed together into one being, with some deformities (such as an arm being longer than the other, or black bulging veins).

The creature in control of the marriage gains the following benefits

• Any ability scores lower than their partner’s become equal to their partner’s

• Their strength increases by 2, to a maximum of 20.

• If their partner has a larger hit die, the creature’s hit die become the same size, though they do not gain additional hit die from this.

• All conditions are removed, all body parts are immediately regrown, and the creatire regains all hit points and expensed hit dice.

If a Marriage performs the rirual again it becomes an “Abominable Marriage” and gains all the same benefits of the above ritual, but with the following additional benefits and detriments.

• The creature’s type changes to monstrosity.

• Their Strength increases by 2, up to a maximum of 22.

• The creature can wield weapons with the 2-handed property in one hand, and its attacks with strength based weapons deal an additional die of damage.

• The creature grows a second head behind its shoulder blades and gains advantage on Wisdom (perception) checks, as well as saving throws against being blinded, charmed, deafened, frightened, stunned, or knocked unconscious.

• The creature cannot wear armor unless the armor is specially crafted for it. Armor made for an Abominable marriage costs four times as much, and weighs twice as much. The marriage can still use shields.

Conflict in your marriage

After being absorbed, your partners remain in you mind as separate conciousnesses independant of you. They maintain their personality and alignment, percieve everything you percieve, and can communicate telepathically with you at any time.

If you act in a manner opposed to your partner’s alignment or purpose, conflict can arise. When such a conflict occurs, your partner may attempt to take control of your body, you must make a Charisma Saving Throw, with a DC equal to 12 + the item’s Charisma modifier. On a failed save, you are charmed by your partner for 1d12 hours. While charmed you must try to follow your partners’s desiress. If you take damage, you can repeat the Saving Throw, ending the effect on a success. Whether the attempt to control the body succeeds or fails, the partner can’t use attempt to take control again until the next dawn.

If you are an abominable marriage and both of your partners attempt to take control at the same time, you suffer a -5 penalty to the charisma saving throws to remain and regain control.
