You are cursed by a person, failed deal, cursed object or dark enchantment. This curse marks your skin in some way such as a tattoo, usually a living tattoo which can move and animate across your skin and has some sentience depending on the curse. This tattoo can be anything from words to pictures to faces to objects to runes. The tattoo can be just black or many different colours and can emit light / glow depending on how your curse works. The Curse must come with a benefit (usually utility not a numerical bonus) and a drawback (can and most likely be a numerical affect). It will also come with some form of rule to appease the tattoo, delaying its negative affects. An example of one of these curses is a Magical tattoo which is a dark rope that is wrapped/ coiled all around your body, this rope allows you to read any map and know the terrain around you without having been there before. think of it as a magical navigation system. This will allow you to navigate through different places, providing you the best path through a natural location or biome stopping you from being led off course. This also works on water or in the sky, giving you a proficiency of water and air vehicles. The downside of this curse is that when away from a vessel or vehicle it will start to restrict your movement and breathing like a noose. When away from a pilot-able vehicle for over 5 days this curse will start to restrict your speed by 5 feet every two days, and lower your total health by your spell level times two every two days. To sate this curse you must pilot a vehicle for more that one mile before the curses negative affects subside and the timer for its downsides resets.
