Curses are a form of fate-Manc, A deity Manc curses are usually connected with a Devil or God and is a power granted to another, usually a mortal who can plant upon a victim a fate-Mance that will cause the victim to eventually suffer the results, or consequences of the curse. Because a curse is a deity-imbued power it is far from easy to find out if a victim has been cursed. Faith allows others to see spiritual or religious affects, and this Manc allows the user to find a curse upon a specific person or thing, or even location. they may search until they find one or the Duration ends. Once a curse has been found the Manc ends.
The user casts this Manc and while the duration is active may move about and try to find a curse. The user must specify the target of the Find Curse Manc. Be that a person, location or item. The user uses all of their senses to home-in on a curse. They will feel a tingling in the vicinity of the curse, see a black aura surround the target of a curse, smell a distinctive odour that is consistent with any given deity or devil, hear a hum as they touch or see the target with a curse, and taste a bitterness that again is distinctive and specific to any given deity. Although specific smells or tastes are related to any given deity or devil, it does not mean that the user automatically knows which deity or devil that taste or smell is identified with.
Once found the curse can be then examined with various rituals and ceremonies available to the religion of the user, but Find Curse does not explain any details of the curse, it merely indicates there is one.
The user, once a curse has been found, can tell roughly the power of the curse, be it a negligible curse from a minor entity or a hellish one from a devil or deity. This is achieved with the cleric's Level x10 chance to determine if the curse is one of the following:-
