Frankenstein's monster could be considered an example of Embody that gave the spirit Amnesia. Ritual Magic (Technology), of which the Book of Animation (a better generic name), would be a form of Ritual Mage that would take advantage of technology trappings and storms as additional elements. As an element, technological trappings would that add (TL/2, rounded down) bonus to skill when present while rituals performed without technological trappings would suffer -5 to skill. As an element, storms would give a bonus to skill equal to their wind speed in yards/10, rounded down, with a minimum bonus of '0', while rituals performed without a storm would suffer -5 to skill

The Book of Animation would have Embody, Predict Weather, Summon, Tirelessness, Vitality, and Weatherworking, plus Halt Decay and Reverse Decay (though I would change them to use standard time parameters). Embody and Summon would gain the spirit required for animation, Halt Decay and Reverse Decay would create the vessel for animation, Predict Weather and Weatherworking would allow the practitioner to know (or create) the ideal environment for animation, and Tirelessness and Vitality would keep the practitioner going. While it would be a highly specialized Book, the ability of its practitioners to seemingly reanimated the dead would make them sought after by the desperate, as well as by authorities for violating corpses.
