Rite of the TAZ
By Diane Keating Sciacca (wolfinblack@pagan.net) for the Keepers of the Silver Flame
Level Three Keepers of the Silver Flame Rite of Accord
Description
This Rite, cast in a nomadic structure such as a tent, yurt, or dome, creates a small Temporary Autonomous Zone that behaves like a low-level caern. Once consecrated, the TAZ becomes the focal point for any group ritual, but is usually used for Tribal initiations, Summerland activities and Festival home bases. Such TAZs are never permanent structures: they stay up a week at the most, and typically only stand for a few hours before being broken down and carried off by the inceptors and participants of this Rite.System: Roll Wits + Rituals (difficulty 7). A suitable locale must be found and a TAZ structure must be erected before the Rite can be performed.
