Curse Magic

Curse Magic (魔法の罵倒, Batō no Mahō) is an ancient and forbidden form of Caster-type magic that enables a mage to cripple their enemies by attacking their life force.

Description
Curse magic allows the caster to curse another person through either blood contract or by ritualistic means. When a curse spell is placed on one or more persons, a place, or an object, it is usually followed by some form of adversity or misfortune. Sometimes as a result of a curse spell bad luck or death may and at some point will befall or attach to the said entity or the unfortunate victim, though it varies upon the technique used by the said caster. In particular curse magic uses supernatural forces or powers such as a spell, a prayer, an imprecation, an execration, witchcraft, a god, a natural force, or a spirit to inflict hurt or harm upon a specific target or object. In many belief systems, the curse itself (or accompanying ritual) is considered to have some causative force in the result. Due to the numerous sources of power that a mage may utilize in preparation of this magic, it is one of versatile types of magic that can be used.
