[[Skill type]]. An [[item spell]] is a skill that creates a [[bundle]], represented by an urn, that is held in the caster's hands. They cause an effect while ''held'' and/or when ''dropped''.<br />
<br />
==Game Mechanics==<br />
=== Characteristics ===<br />
* Requires [[energy]] to activate; some also require [[sacrifice]].<br />
* Has an [[aftercast delay]].<br />
* When the [[duration]] of an item spell ends or the holder [[Death|dies]] or casts another item spell, the ashes being held will automatically drop and trigger its drop effect (if it has one).<br />
* Only [[Ritualist]]s have item spells.<br />
* Ashes have similar [[Bundle#Characteristics|characteristics as bundles]], except holding ashes ''does not'' impose a 25% [[Snare (tactic)|penalty to movement speed]].<br />
<br />
===Bundles===<br />
{{see|Bundle}}<br />
* A few bundles found in missions behave similarly to item spells. For example, the [[Urn of Saint Viktor]] has a drop effect.<br />
{{Bug |If you die while holding ashes, your maximum energy will be treated as if you are still holding them. On very rare occasions, this can also happen after dropping the ashes normally. Both problems can be reset by dying again or rezoning.}}<br />
<br />
=== Related skills ===<br />
* [[Renewing Memories]] is the only skill that specifically affects item spells.<br />
<br />
== Trivia ==<br />
* All item spells are named after a specific lore figure, who is depicted in the skill icon, and appear to channel an aspect of their personality in life as part of their effects. However, [[Sogolon the Protector|with]] [[Saidra|a]] [[Lady Glaive|few]] [[Kaolai|exceptions]], nothing more about their namesakes is known.<br />
* It appears that while only Ritualists can channel these figures through their ashes, it is not necessary for the person to have been a Ritualist in life.<br />
<br />
== Visual identification ==<br />
The general nature of an urn's effects can be determined from its appearance. Red, rectangular urns have offensive effects. Orange, pear-shaped urns have defensive or supportive effects. Silver, ovoid urns are only created by [[Lively Was Naomei]], and resurrect their creator and their nearby allies when they are dropped.<br />
