Dark energy sprouts from the obsidion and rushes towards the mouth of a creature you can see. If the creature does not have a discernable mouth, it embeds itself into the body of the creature. The target must make a constitution saving throw. If the spell fails, you cannot target the same creature with this spell for a day.
If the spell succeeds, the dark energy coaleses into a bottomless pit in its stomach, absorbing anything the creature eats or drinks at a rate of 1 pound of food and drink per hour and the affected creature will suffer one point of exhaustion every 12 hours due to not being able to replenish their energy.
The affected creature can avoid taking a point of exhaustion by consuming more food and drink than the spell can absorb (1 pound of food and drink per hour) however the spell's effect continues until it is dispelled or the affected creature dies.
This spell is permanent until it is dispelled. Creatures afflicted with this spell aggressively looks for things to eat, and after a few days, they become desperate enough to eat things they normally wouldn't, such as wood, stone, raw meat or even live creatures.
The powerful effect of the spell still affect creatures that would usually not need food or drink to sustain themselves such as monks with the Timeless Body feature.
