Duration: 38 (one year and a day)
Ritual Length: 29 (one week)
Effect: Extremely potent curse
Attainment Rating: 25
The pronouncement of doom is the most powerful
curse commonly invoked. It has the same effect as the great curse miracle,
but its effects last for an entire year. 1n addition, each infraction the
victim commits against the god or goddess of the priest who pronounced doom
increases the bonus modifier by +1.
Example: A Character has a pronouncement of doom
cast upon him by a priestess of Wadjet, adding +1 to the difficulty of all his
actions and giving his opponent a +1bonus modifier for actions taken against
him. Three weeks later, with the pronouncement still upon him, he kills
a sacred cobra. Now the modifiers are +2 and +2 respectively for the rest of
the curse. Presuming of course, no further infractions on the part of the
Character. The priest need not actually touch his or her victim, but must have
an object that the victim once possessed for at least one week, and must make a
great offering to his god. A priest can only call one pronouncement of doom
upon an individual. Multiple pronouncements of doom are cumulative if invoked
by different priests. The faith total used to generate the pronouncement
of doom should be recorded. Pronouncement of doom is removed by the dispel
curse miracle.
