You concentrate upon a creature you can see within range, and a crown of black rose thorns grow around the creature's head, marking them. That creature must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or become cursed for the duration of the spell. When you cast this spell, choose the nature of the curse from the following options:
- While cursed, the target has disadvantage on all ability checks or saving throws until it's next turn.
- While cursed, the target has disadvantage on attack rolls against you, and your attack rolls (Both spell and melee rolls) against the target are at advantage.
- While cursed, the target must make a Wisdom saving throw at the start of each of its turns. If it fails, it wastes its action that turn doing nothing.
- While the target is cursed, your attacks and spells deal an extra 1d8 psychic damage to the target.
- The Target becomes vulnerable to the next attacks upon it after this spell is cast, until the start of your next turn, so those attacks do twice the damage that they ordinarily would. The spell then immediately ends once your next turn begins, and must be re-cast if you wish to regain this effect.
All effects, aside from the 5th one listed above, will continue until the Cursed creature is dead, you lose concentration, or you are dead.
A remove curse spell ends this effect. At the DM's option, you may choose an alternative curse effect, but it should be no more powerful than those described above. The DM has final say on such a curse's effect.
At Higher Levels. If you cast this spell using a spell slot of 4th level or higher, you may curse one other creature within range for every level this spell is cast above 3rd level.
