Bestow Curse
3RD NECROMANCY
Casting Time: Action
Range/Area: Touch
Components: V, S
Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute
Description: You touch a creature, which must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or become cursed for the duration. Until the curse ends, the target suffers one of the following effects of your choice:
If you deal damage to the target with an attack roll or a spell, the target takes an extra 1d8 Necrotic damage.
- Choose one ability. The target has Disadvantage on ability checks and saving throws made with that ability.
- The target has Disadvantage on attack rolls against you.
- In combat, the target must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw at the start of each of its turns or be forced to take the Dodge action on that turn.
Using a Higher-Level Spell Slot: If you cast this spell using a level 4 spell slot, you can maintain Concentration on it for up to 10 minutes. If you use a level 5+ spell slot, the spell doesn't require Concentration, and the duration becomes 8 hours (level 5-6 slot) or 24 hours (level 7-8 slot). If you use a level 9 spell slot, the spell lasts until dispelled.
Available For: Bard, Cleric, Wizard
