Description
This vicious spell endangers the life of the target, such that they are quickly overpowered by critical wounds.
It is worth noting that this spell creates a magical poison, or a malaise of the spirit; it attacks the life force directly. As such, it is equally effective on humans, orcs and even more exotic creatures - shambling husks, animate plants and arcane constructs are all equally vulnerable to it's effects. Indeed, some creatures such as Vallornspawn husks are especially vulnerable to this searing magical poison - it is sufficient to mortally wound such creatures by it's very nature.
It is particularly dangerous in that it does not go away naturally; it can be removed with herbs by a skilled physick, or purged by a magician using the purify spell or a ritual such as Ascetic Star of Atun. Otherwise, it lingers indefinitely.
Rules
1 personal mana Offensive Spell
Effects
The target is poisoned, suffering the effects of the VENOM call. Venom lasts until cured.
