This ritual consecrates up to an entire acre of land (shaped like a circle, this would be about 235 feet in diameter). This effect bolsters one of the twelve types of elemental magic within. The behavior of the place varies between elements, but the end result is that the area just feels more suited for magic of that type. A place hallowed for fire feels warm. A place hallowed for water feels humid. A place hallowed for ruin smells of decay. The hallowed ground is permanent. Those performing the ritual must outline the entire perimeter of the chosen area with specific runes. This process takes about 2 hours.

In game terms, all spells of the hallowed element receive a +1 bonus to the Casting Roll within this area. All spells of the opposite element take a −1 penalty. An elemental of the hallowed type summoned into the area receives a +1 bonus to their Resilience checks against a Banish spell. An elemental opposite to the hallowed type takes a −1 penalty.

Consecrated ground can only be removed by desecration — by performing a hallow ritual for the opposing element.
