You target one Enterprise with this ritual; the Curse Card must be delivered to the Enterprise’s owner for the ritual to take effect.
This ritual can only target a Tower or Aether Vent.
The target Enterprise loses -8 Levels. At the start of each Conflux, this penalty is reduced by 2. The effects of this ritual last until the Level penalty is reduced to 0, until you choose to remove it, or until the curse is broken.
You can overcharge this ritual; for every +10 additional Ritual Power you use when you perform the ritual, the targeted Enterprise takes an additional -2 Level penalty.
Roleplaying Effects
The target’s sense of smell becomes overwhelmed when they are near magic. Casting a spell or performing a ritual is still possible, but every spell or ritual they are nearby or taking part in fills their nose with the foulest scent imaginable, like skunk spray mixed with rotting feces and seasoned with rancid oil. Magic items and other clearly magical effects and creatures trigger an involuntary disgust reaction, as well, though nowhere near as strong as the target’s reaction to active performances of magic.
