You use this ritual on a helpless creature. Usually it is cast on a defeated but live enemy you do not wish to kill. It imprisons the creature's soul, making resurrection in any form impossible. This ritual must be finished within one hour of the creature's death and the corpse must be present. A dismembered corpse needs the head and at least half of the body for this to work.
- Soul gem: The creature is imprisoned in a gem or crystal. The crystal is hardy, but can be broken with concentrated effort; this frees the soul, allowing the target to die normally. Time spent in a soul trap does not count against the time limit on resurrection.
