You have acquired the ability to bind your first
mortal to your will. You can create a contract
to bind their soul to you, feeding on its power.
However, you will not gain the benefits of this gift
until you have bound a mortal with a contract.
To bind a mortal’s soul to you and grant them
a Gift of Damnation, you must first create
a contract for that gift. A contract requires
magical ink and paper worth 50gp for each
Transformation level you have acquired, and you
must meet the prerequisites listed. In addition,
you and the mortal must both sign the contract
willingly, fully aware of the costs involved. Once
signed, Netherworld entities give the benefits
of the gift to you, and the mortal receives the
named benefit within 7 days. You do not have to
provide this benefit yourself. For example, upon
signing a contract for a Gift of Unfettered Glory,
you will receive the benefits listed under the gift.
The mortal who signs will receive glory and no
in-game mechanical bonuses, provided by the
dubious powers of the Netherworld.
While you may have any number of contracts in
your possession, you can only benefit from one
at a time. Upon the completion of a long rest,
you may swap the contract you are currently
benefiting from for an alternate contract that you
have bound a mortal to and signed.
On your turn, as an action, you can call upon
the Netherworld to reveal to you the exact
location of a creature that has signed one of your
contracts, providing they are on the same plane of
existence as you.
A contract you hold lasts for 7 years or until
the mortal that signed it dies. At which point it
bursts into flames and you cannot receive any
benefits from it.
