Capabilities

Users can place a curse, a negative supernatural effect, on whatever they wish (people, places, objects, etc.). The exact effects can be nearly anything the user desires, ranging from minor annoyances to tortuously extended death.

Among the most common effects are misfortune/bad luck, various sicknesses, infertility, physical defects/ugliness, etc. when affecting people, breaking or working wrong or causing problems when used on objects and tendency to draw various disasters for places. Traditional magical curses include transforming the victim fully or partially into an animal/monster that fits the offense, bloodlust, insanity, unstoppable rages, unhealing wounds, misshapen/inhuman offspring, and a whole host of other effects.

Curses are also well known to create and induce supernatural anomalies capable of warping reality too, such as dimensional rifts appearing on any surface like the ceiling, wall, or floor, and among other things like various objects appearing out of thin air, etc.

Limitations

• Limited by what the user knows.
• User may not be immune.
• There may be ways to reverse/undo curses.
  • Curse Removal can remove most curses.
  • Curse Negation can cancel curses.
  • Curse Absorption siphon/remove curses.
  • Curse Immunity users are unaffected.
  • Coincidence Nullification limits this power.
• May be involuntary and triggered by extreme emotions.
• May not be able to undo one's own curses.
• Consequences/effects may be unpredictable.
• In order to get a boon, from a cursed object, a curse has to be put on a person, in order to get its boon, if not the curse will come back to the one who did the curse. (Friday the 13th TV series)
• May work on a "first come, first serve" basis - meaning that an already cursed recipient is rendered insusceptible to subsequent curses, until the one from prior is lifted.
• If someone has already been cursed, but got it lifted, even if it’s the same one, they will probably be immune to it.
• They say that True Love's Kiss is the most powerful of all when it comes to curses.
• Because curses are more powerful when compared to spells they can be really hard to undo, to the point that they become irreversible or permanent.
• Sometimes curses can be removed, but only by the victim themselves.
• May only last as long as a person is touching the object that is cursing them.
