Requires: Unique Curse, Magic Lore, spell to be linked 
Counts as two skills at character creation
This is the ultimate final 'fuck you' spell. It allows a spellcaster to instantly cast a specific curse or other spell at the moment of his death. All ritual requirements for both spells are cast when the Last Rites are imprinted into the caster's life force; thus, no additional ritual or material requirements are needed for Last Rites—or the linked spell—to be enacted at the time of the caster's passing. Note that this spell may be cast by an Undead sorcerer; simply substitute 'final destruction' for 'death'. Anyone actively involved with the slaying of the caster does not benefit from any saving throw—against this spell or the connected spell—as they 'voluntarily' set off the spell by slaying the caster. Anyone peripherally involved in the cursing mage's death—or just too close when he or she dies—suffers a -6 to any possible saving throws against the linked spell.
