			===Oath of the Shieldmates===
			Ritual: Blessing, Prayer, Sermon<br>
			Roll: Wits+Theurgy <br>
			Duration: Scene<br>
			Range: Sensory

			This rite allows the theurgist to band his comrades into a coherent fighting unit. A telepathic bond of sorts is forged between the theurgist and his targets, allowing quick, accurate and effortless communication between him and them. This is not the same as telepathy: those bound together in this rite do not 'transmit' their thoughts to one another nor do they 'hear' the thoughts of their peers. Instead, those under the Oath of the Shieldmates share knowledge back and forth. If one member of the team knows the layout of a building then all know it; if one member of the team knows where guards are walking, all know it; and if one of the team members is hurt or needs help, all those linked together know roughly where their wounded friend is. It is thanks to this rite that Brother Battle hostage rescue teams are renowned for their clockwork precision.
