Degenerative Spiral

Mystic

Proficiency [Grace]

Requires: Balance, Never the Strong

This twirling dance-curse is used to lower the victim's resistance to magic, or another area of potential harm. Each round the caster turns again to face the victim—requiring a skill check at 10 or higher—three successes in a row lower one of the victim's specific saving throws by one. The subject of the spell does receive a saving throw against magic at a 17, but as the typical target of this ritual is "save vs. magic," this can rapidly dwindle the victim's chances. Particularly cruel Game Masters may mandate that a caster without the Balance trait make a Grace check to avoid falling from dizziness after this spell is cast.
