Albatross Curse

Marking a foe with a lucky guardian bird sharpens allies' aim against it, but killing the bird curses the slayer with guilt or misfortune.

commonConcentrateManipulateMisfortune

You create a spectral albatross, a guiding bird for sailors, to hover around the target. You and allies within 30 feet of the target gain a +1 circumstance bonus to attacks against the target. The target creature can spend an action to Strike the albatross, which automatically succeeds and kills it. The target must then attempt a Will save against your spell DC.

Critical Success The target is unaffected.

Success The guilt of slaughtering a bird of good fortune weighs on the target's mind. The target is Stupefied 1 for 1 round.

Failure The albatross hangs around a cord from the target's neck (or closest equivalent) for 1 minute, cursing them for their transgression. During this time, the target must roll twice and take the worse result on their next Will save, after which the albatross disappears.

Critical Failure As failure, but the duration is 1 hour.
