Psychic rituals

Psychic rituals are rituals like those in Ideology DLC but with the « psychic » side of Royalty DLC. They are performed at an Psychic ritual spot and can be improved with stuff like Void sculptures and Shard beacons and apparel like ritual masks and ceremonial hoods. They allow to psychically induce an insane Archotech machine-god who can distort reality.
