Remove Curse (Abjuration) Reversible [[Bestow Curse (p)]] Sphere: All Level: 3 Range: Touch Components: V, S Casting Time: 6 Duration: Instantaneous Area of Effect: Special Saving Throw: Special Upon casting this spell, the priest is usually able to remove a curse on an object, on a person, or a curse in the form of some undesired sending or evil presence. The remove curse spell does not remove the curse from a cursed shield, weapon, or suit of armor, for example, although the spell typically enables the person afflicted with any such cursed item to get rid of it. Certain special curses cannot be countered by this spell, or may be countered only by a caster of a certain level or more. A caster of 12th level or more can cure lycanthropy with this spell by casting it on the animal form. The were-creature receives a saving throw vs. spell and, if successful, the spell fails and the priest must gain a level before attempting the remedy on this creature again. The reverse of the spell, [[Bestow Curse (p)]], is not permanent. This spell lasts for one turn for every experience level of the casting priest. The curse can have one of the following effects (roll percentile dice); | d100 | Result | | ----- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | 1-50 | Lowers one ability of the subject to 3 (the DM determines which by random selection) | | 51-75 | Worsens the subject’s attack rolls and saving throws by —4 | | 76-00 | Makes the subject 50% likely per turn to drop whatever it is holding (or simply do nothing, in the case of creatures not using tools) | It is possible for a priest to devise his own curse, and it should be similar in power to those given here. Consult your DM. The subject of a bestow curse spell must be touched. If the victim is touched, a saving throw vs. spell is still applicable; if it is successful, the effect is negated. The bestowed curse cannot be dispelled. Notes: Common for clerics and druids (PHB).
