Curse Casting

Starting at 1st level, your patron bestows upon you the ability to curse your foes.

You gain access to choose 3 of the curse spells.

As an action you, you can take the Curse Action to apply two curses. At the start of each of your turns any of the Curses you have applied to targets trigger simultaneously as one source per target. Meaning for example if you had 4 curses applied to a target that each deal damage and you had hex applied hex would only trigger once not for each of the curses.

Mechanics

Applying a curse - when a curse is cast a creature must succeed a Charisma saving throw. On success the curse fails and any previous stacks of that curse are removed, on failure the curse is applied to the target. At the end of each of the targets turns they can attempt an Charisma saving throw to remove all applied curses.

Stacks - each curse has Max stacks listed. You can apply the curse Up to the number of stacks onto the target to increase its effect. Applying the curse beyond the Max stacks listed has no effect.

Targets - each curse has Max targets listed. You can have each curse active on Up to the number of Max targets. Applying the curse to a target beyond the Max target value will call the curse to fall of one target of your choosing.

Duration - all curses have a 18 seconds duration and the is refreshed upon applying a stack, moving targets, or just reapplying.

Additionally taking this Patron removes your ability at level 3 to choose a Pact and you will automatically Take Pact of the Curse.
