"You have now been marked with the Brand of Sacrifice. The lives of those who bear the Brand, from the last drop of blood to the last moment of your agonizing death, will feed life to the new Child of Darkness."

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.
  • 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 Loves 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.
