Curse is a negative status effect caused by spells or attacks from certain enemies within the game; most notably the mist from Basilisks.

Curse

Usually found in the form of a cloud of mist, Curse will slowly build-up in a player. As Curse is inflicted repeatedly, the status bar will become increasingly red until it fills up, which is when the curse effect will occur.

The amount of curse inflicted by weapons wielded by the player is influenced by Luck.

Effects

Instant death upon completed build-up. The animation shows the character dropping to their knees, likely from some pain before sprouting black crystals, having turned to stone.

Curse weaponry

None
