You learn to invoke a rite that infuses your weapon strikes with necrotic energy. As a bonus action, you can activate this rite on one weapon you’re holding. The effect of the rite lasts until you finish a short or long rest. When you activate a rite, you take necrotic damage equal to one roll of your castigation die ([roll]1d4[/roll]). This damage reduces your hit point maximum and can not be healed until you have taken a long rest.
While the rite is in effect, attacks you make with this weapon are magical, and deal extra damage equal to your castigation die. Other creatures can’t gain the benefit of your rite.
You also learn one blood curse of your choice.
When invoking a blood curse, you take necrotic damage equal to one roll of your castigation die. This damage can’t be reduced in any way. Creatures that do not have blood are immune to blood curses.
Once you use this feature, you must finish a short or long rest before you can use it again.
