Curse Removal and Spirit Collection

Cavid are able to sense and remove evil spirits and curses. Starting at level 5, you can cast the spell Remove Curse once with this trait and regain the ability to do so when you finish a long rest. Also starting at level 5, you can spend 1 hour conducting a complex ritual to end the possession of a creature. This ritual requires that you have a clay vessel and a wax topper to seal it. As an action, you touch a creature you can reach that is possessed by a celestial, fiend, fey or an undead. The creature you touch must make a Charisma saving throw, (the DC of which is equal to 8 + the possessing creature's challenge rating + the possessing creature's Charisma modifier). On a success, the creature is no longer possessed by such creatures and the possessing creature is placed within the vessel for a number of hours equal to your Wisdom modifier. Afterwards, they break free. Wisdom is your spellcasting ability.
