Curse Research.

More than a few of the riftfarers have arrived in this world with a curse from their own affecting them. If you are one of them, it is requested that you respond with the effects of the curse and how 'detrimental' it is to your daily routine. Your name for further questions and research is also requested. Reply with a 'private filter' if desired.

Aid in Removing the Effects of a Curse

Those among you whom are skilled at destruction are asked to respond to this privately to determine if your skills and power is likely to be effective in destroying a specific manifestation of a curse that effects a riftfarer and was brought with them into this world.

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

An effect based in magic or an equivalent sort of power that cannot be remedied without a ritual, object, spell, or other power that can destroy, reverse, or repel the effect back on the being that placed it originally.

Poor health, physical transformation, acting as one usually wouldn't, a binding that creates a punishment for attempting to break it. These are common uses for curses.

What about powers? Like super strength?

You were cursed with super strength or you wish to attempt to destroy the curse manifestation with super strength?

I have super strength. Resilience too. I was born with these abilities but the problem is where they come from.

A demonic god of destruction is kinda tethered to me. My soul.

Why is that a problem?

[~~asks the devil 'god' who commands the most destructive energy in his universe~~]

Are you unable to access your god's power in this world?

What? No! I don't want it! I never wanted it! This stupid power's cost me a normal life! It cost me my family! They're all dead because of this!

That you view it as a curse does not make it a curse, however stupid your god may be. More importantly, you have not answered the question that needs answering: are you able to access that power in this world or not?

It's a curse to me because I've been called a damn monster my entire life!

And yeah, sure! I still have those abilities here. Why does it matter? I don't plan on using them!

If you are offering your power as an example of a curse, it will noted that you view it as a curse but cannot be confirmed as one. A curse would have been that whomever's soul was tethered to the god would live a life of calamities no matter what their fate should have held. Being granted the power of that god is not the same as being cursed.

Being called a monster is not the same as being a monster.

If you reconsider using your power, the power of a god, however physically it manifests, could be useful in destroying the manifestation of the curse that needs to be destroyed.]

Okay that's just semantics then. Curses are bad and if this power has been nothing but misfortune for me, then it's a damn curse!

Look, what exactly are you looking to destroy?

Curses are often controlled by 'semantics' in ways that spells and other magics are not.

Part of a curse from outside this world has been contained within an specific object in a specific location. An attempt to destroy the object, and with it, the curse, will need to be made. Further details will not be discussed publicly.

So you're putting out a call for anyone with experience?

I'm a blacksmith. I might be able to help.

Something like that, yes.

In what way do you believe your skill as a blacksmith might help?

Curses can be transferred, right? At least some can. If you find some way to transfer the curse to another vessel, maybe I can build it.

It's a shot in the dark but hey, whoever's suffering probably doesn't deserve it, yeah?

There may be other curses brought in from other worlds that could benefit from your skill. This is not one of them. The specific effect that will be attempted to be destroyed is already separated from the rest of the effects as far as it is able to separated.

Well hey can't blame a guy for trying.

Glad you were able to separate the effect though. I hope whoever was suffering with it gets on okay.

Your well wishes will be conveyed. You will be kept in mind for further experiments and studies, should a curse be found that can be transferred more directly.

Whoa wait you're not saying you're gonna experiment on me are you?!

[...what?]

No. The services you offered as a blacksmith to make something for a curse to be moved to. Or do you wish to rescind the offer?

Oh. Oh no, that's fine. Sorry, just the idea of 'experimentation' got me a little jumpy.

The experimentation will be on ways to remove curses that did not originate in this world. Not on blacksmiths.

Well hey as long as that's in writing now, I'll take it~
