Preview: Curse Magic

Mediocre damage output overall, but excellent for setting up or converting auras, and shreds enemy defense. Best when paired with high damage or sustained damage schools. Pairs well with lunar magic for burst damage and with primal magic for easy aura building. Compliments black magic as well for easier aura management.

Aura

• Rot: Rot dramatically reduces the defense of the target, and causes the target to take more fire damage. Each stack increases both of these effects.

Spells

• Evil eye: Deals light magic damage. Inflicts 3 rot stacks. If the target has wounds, they are all removed and half are added again as rot stacks. Inflicts the caster with 3 stacks of rot.

• Affliction: Deals light magic damage. If the target has fewer than 25 stacks of rot, they are doubled. Inflicts 5 stacks of rot. Inflicts the caster with 3 stacks of rot.

• Mallachd: Deals heavy magic damage based on the number of combined rot stacks between the target and caster, while consuming half the rot stacks from the target. Inflicts the caster with 3 stacks of rot.

Expertise

• When the caster has more than ten stacks of rot, the target gains a small percentage of the caster's rot stacks at the end of each round.

• Rot stacks removed by the spell Mallachd are transferred to the caster.

• When wound stacks are converted to rot stacks by a curse spell, the spell's damage increases based on the number of wounds converted.

Note: The aura symbol and color scheme were also changed.
