Spell

Putrescence

Created by Kstarfireheart3583

Putrescence is a vile and malevolent necromantic spell of the highest order. When cast, the target is enveloped in a blinding flash of sickly yellow light. The target must succeed on a DC 18 Constitution saving throw or begin to melt and dissolve starting on their next turn. Over the next six turns, the target will slowly and agonizingly transform into a pile of bloody ooze. No amount of healing can stop this gruesome effect, though a stasis spell may temporarily halt the process. The target cannot be resurrected once the full effects of this evil spell have taken hold, their very essence corrupted beyond repair.
