Details
Persona Bonding Ritual is an unoffical addon to Vanilla Persona Weapons Expanded to create a ceremonial ritual to accompany the fantastic customisation from that mod.
After creating the funeral framework for Alpha memes I can't play Rimworld now without thinking rituals. And when my pawn "bonded" with their weapon in a dark dingy mountain stockpile. I decided this could be better.
So I created this to achieve two things, one to create an actual ritual for bonding. Two to make the bond meaningful, the weapon has a persona, why is it not considered at all.
-Adds Bonding Ritual automatically, no need to add to your ideology. When you have a persona weapon stored, you will see it on any ritual spot or throne.
-Adds 2 Weapon Traits that will only get added via the outcome of the ritual. One if its a true bond, improving their joint prowess. The other the opposite if it's a terrible bond.
-A unique way of determining the ritual quality and outcome chances based on the Persona's traits, and the Pawn's traits and stats.

FAQ
Q: Can I add it mid-playthrough to an existing save?
A: Yes; The ritual should automatically be added
Q: Does this replace regular bonding?
A: No, if you don't want to use this for any reason. Go ahead and equip it the original way.
Q: I want a simple ritual, not these traits or complicated outcome chance
A: The settings menu can disable my traits, and/or make the outcome just random chance.
Q: 100% quality seems really hard to get.
A: It is meant to be, the quality works differently compared to a vanilla rituals. At 50% quality, you are at the equivalent of 100% quality for other rituals. 100% for a persona bond is a guaranteed True Bond.
Mod Compatibility
I'm not aware of anything that would directly conflict causing issues. However not all traits added by mods will be considered for bond strength.
The Following Mods have had their traits considered.
Vanilla Traits Expanded
[SYR] Individuality
RimTraits - General Traits
