Deathboil Plague
Occult Ritual, Necromancy, Dark Power
Prerequisites: Occult 13
Casting Time: 24 hours
Materials: At least 5 rats and powdered bone from an undead humanoid
Recharge: 1 Week
Upon completion of casting this ritual, designate one urban area within 5 miles of you. If it is a very large urban area (such as a major city), you may choose to designate a specific neighborhood. That urban area suffers an outbreak of the Deathboil Plague (see the MythCrafter’s Guide). You gain Fatigue and are Sickened for 24 hours after you cast this ritual. When you cast this ritual, make a magic roll to determine if you are afflicted by Dark Power.
Dark Power: Make a magic roll against a DC determined by your MC based upon the size of the urban area’s population. If you fail, then you immediately contract the Deathboil Plague, and the ritual fails to take root in the urban area.
