The water ritual is a key mechanic that aids in the manipulation of the player character's [[reputation]] with the numerous [[factions]] in game.  It is a way for characters to communicate their good will towards each other. Creatures that the player has performed the water ritual with will have "You are water-bonded with [them]". During a ritual, both characters treat the other as family, referring to each other as water-siblings.

The ritual can be performed multiple times, but the reputation gain will only happen once. If the player character learns [[Tactful]] after the initial reputation gain, the next water ritual will add an additional +25 reputation. It will still require a dram to initiate the ritual.
