APC: 8
SPC: 60
Range: Sight
Requirements: Visual
Duration: Instantaneous
After smiling at a creature, make a magic attack against their LOG. If you hit, then that creature becomes cursed. For the extent of the curse, the creature suffers from extreme paranoia, resulting in the following effects:
- The creature is Shaken.
- When the creature attempts to Take a Rest, it must make an INT check against DC 10 + your magic attribute. If it fails, then it gains the benefits of a Recoup but not of Taking a Rest.
- The creature is Phobic of smiling and takes 1d6 psychic damage whenever this phobia activates.
If another creature witnesses the death of the affected creature, then the curse transmits to the new creature unless there were additional witnesses.
Dark Power: If you miss your initial attack and roll a 5 or lower, then the curse affects you instead of the target creature.
Ritualize: If casting this spell as a ritual, the casting takes 10 minutes. It costs no SP when cast as a ritual. When cast as a ritual, there is no risk of Dark Power, but if the spell fails you still lose your SP.
