Bestow Curse

Necromancy

Level: Acolyte 3, Mage 4; Components: V, S; Casting Time; Attack action Range: Touch; Target: Creature touched; Duration: Permanent; Saving Throw: Will negates; Spell Resistance: Yes

The caster places a curse on the creature touched. The caster chooses one of the three following effects, depending on the version selected:

–6 penalty to an ability score (minimum score of 1).

–4 penalty on attack rolls, saving throws, ability checks, and skill checks.

Each turn, the target has a 50% chance to act normally; otherwise, he or she takes no action.

A character may also invent his or her own curse, but it should be no more powerful than those described above, and the GM has final say on the curse’s effect.

The curse cannot be dispelled, but it can be removed with a break enchantment or remove curse spell.

Bestow curse counters remove curse.
