After forging a contract with the Curse Devil, you have been granted the ability to summon the Curse Devil to inflict massive damage onto enemies. (For calculating how many years off your life you lose, use your maximum lifespan and round down to the nearest whole number. Ex: If you lose 1/10th of 30 years, you lose 3 years off of your lifespan. If you lose 1/15th of 30 years, you lose 2 years of your lifespan.)
(Level 1) Minor Curse Summoning: Your contract grants you the Cursed Nail, which takes the form of a rapier. By stabbing an enemy 6 times with the Cursed Nail, you can inflict 10d10 necrotic damage onto them. Using this takes 1/10th of your maximum lifespan from you. You also obtain knowledge of how to properly use many kinds of swords, gaining proficiency in greatswords, longswords, rapiers, scimitars, and shortswords.
(Level 5) Curse Summoning: After the Curse Devil has observed you utilize its power, it has decided to grant you further power. You now only need to stab an enemy 5 times with the Cursed Nail to inflict 15d10 necrotic damage. This still takes 1/10th of your maximum lifespan from you.
(Level 10) Major Curse Summoning: You have further impressed the Curse Devil, whom has granted you even more power as a reward. By stabbing an enemy 4 times with the Cursed Nail, you inflict 20d10 necrotic damage. This takes 1/15th of your maximum lifespan from you. You also gain the ability to give yourself advantage on one attack when using the Cursed Nail. This ability has 3 charges, and these charges recharge every short rest. "Fire!" takes a bonus action.
(Level 15) Perfected Curse Summoning: You have proven to the Curse Devil that you are worthy to wield its full might. You now only need to stab an enemy 3 times with the Cursed Nail, and you can now choose between inflicting 20d10 necrotic damage or instantly killing the target. If you inflict 20d10 necrotic damage, you lose 1/15th of your lifespan. But if you instantly kill your target, you lose 1/10th of your maximum lifespan.
