Description:	Soul Sickness is the most elementary spell available to aspiring spiritual warriors. Rather than directly blast at the health of the soul, it creates a spiritual 'weight' to crush down on the victim.
Effect:	Immobilizes and forces kneeling.
Example Messaging:	You gesture at a grass eel. Slippery as an eel, a spiritual tendril creeps into its soul, engendering a powerful sense of indecisiveness. The grass eel takes on an ill, brooding appearance. It drops to its knees before you. Roundtime: 2 sec. Backlash effect when cast on undead: You gesture at a goblin zombie. With no living spirit to manipulate, the spell recoils upon you! Your skin crawls at the clammy touch of your own magic. Roundtime: 10 sec.
Contest Type:	spirit / willpower
Devices/Tattoos:	Grey inkpot (1), Tightly rolled scroll of blackened paper

Notes

• Does not function against undead.
• If cast without a valid target it will instead turn on you, causing roundtime.
• The current theory holds that induced roundtime duration is based upon weight of success in the spirit vs willpower stat contest.
• Does not cause Empathic Shock when cast by an Empath.
