The sacred Rite of One is a powerful rite taught only to the most trusted Ananasi. With this rite three Ananasi can join into one being, becoming an avatar of the Mother-Queen. One must be Tenere, one Kumoti and one Hatar. This rite may only be performed in one of the sacred places, special locations in the Umbra where the Damhan teach their young about the ways of the Ananasi.

System

Each of the three chosen Ananasi breaks down into the Crawlerling form, offering themselves to Queen Ananasa, who then takes over the three bodies, using them as her link to her Children. When she appears, she is simultaneously hideous and magnificent to behold. While she is present, Ananasa assesses her new Children and decides which aspect each will follow. One Gnosis point is taken from each of the Damhan present, drawn from them by force, in order to allow the Mother- Queen to appear. No rolls are necessary for this rite, as Ananasa herself decides when this rite will be performed. Every Ananasi meets the Queen at least once in their lives. Though there are no physical changes in the hosts of Ananasa, the spiritual impact of hosting even a fragment of her consciousness is considered a blessing.
