Purification Rituals Okay, I'm a writer searching for information on purification rituals for warriors before battle. I'm at a loss and need the information ASAP. If there are some helpful sites anyone knows about, I'd really appreciate knowing. Thanks!!
Re: Purification Rituals Hi seeker, and welcome to MA. I think you've come to the right place. We have a lot of writers with a very eclectic mix of knowledge and interests. Someone here will likely be able to give you some ideas.
Why not stop by The Meeting Point (at the top of this forum) while you're waiting and introduce yourself?

Re: Purification Rituals Hello seeker, welcome on board. Yes, it would be nice of you to introduce yourself at the Meeting Point, like BaneBlade suggested.
I'm not sure if there were any rituals historically before any battle (other than a prayer or two said publically by any religious leader). So, you probably can imagine your own.
Purification for knights often involved fasting, and praying through the night. That might be an analogy for you.
Other than that, you can probably invent your own. You didn't say what culture you're basing your world on, though, so I can only guess what you really want to do.
Purification could involve the use of incense, prayer, meditation, and so on.
