Festrem Mortu
A skin-bound grimoire fuels necromancy with stolen vitality after each cast, but too many days running invites a curse of endless hunger.
The book's cover is a patchwork of tanned humanoid skin that reeks of rotting meat. The longer a living creature studies this book, the more the scent of decay appeals to them.
Special If this grimoire is used to prepare spells five days in succession by the same caster, that caster is subjected to the curse of the ravenous.
This hideous curse kills through constant hunger. You become gaunt and repeatedly gnash your teeth.
Saving Throw
Effect No matter how much you eat, you aren't satiated. After 1 day, you begin starving. Each week, you receive a new saving throw against the curse.
