Notes
- Affected targets are no longer obvious in the room look description. ASSESS will show victims as "pained".
- Does not display third person messaging after the initial cast.
- Modified by the Anabasis metaspell Ebon Blood of the Scorpion. It gains practically infinite duration but becomes limited to one target at a time. If a creature dies with it, the curse will jump to another creature in the room.
- Casting this spell inside a standard justice zone generates Social Outrage.
