At the end of each long rest, the cursed creature must make a Constitution saving throw against your spell save DC + the current level of the curse. On a failed save, the curse advances by one level. This possess repeats until the curse reaches its final level, you die, or it is removed. On a successful save, the level of the curse is reduced by one. If a successful save reduces the level of the curse below 1, you recover from the curse. A greater restoration spell or similar magic ends the curse and its effects.

If they fail, they retain their alignment and freewill, but not their original shape. If they succeed, they no longer need to make Wisdom saving throws to retain their alignment, and the curses other effects fade over the next 1d4 days.
