It is a pestilence spell that focuses exclusively on inflicting a foul odor on one specific person, \u003cstrong\u003ecausing it to emanate from their sweat, pores, and bodily openings\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe pestilence spell is one of the curses classified as \u003cem\u003elight\u003c\/em\u003e or moderate, although, in my opinion, there is absolutely nothing subtle about smelling terrible. It repels those around them, interferes with personal and professional relationships, and creates an immediate impression of poor hygiene and neglect.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe target will not understand where the smell is coming from or why it is happening, nor will they find any medical explanation for it.

In this case, the ritual is performed with Marbas and Vassago. \u003c\/span\u003eMarbas governs the corruption and putrefaction of the body, while Vassago brings what should remain hidden to the surface, ensuring that the stench cannot be concealed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePestilence spells are usually performed on people for whom smelling terrible would be specially destructive: \u003c\/span\u003esomeone with a very active social life, someone who takes great pride in their attractiveness, or simply someone who is constantly interacting with others.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe curse begins with the preparation of a \u003cem\u003ephiltum\u003c\/em\u003e (philter) prepared with Vassago and Marbas's sigils and a secret \u003c\/span\u003eincantation. Then, I submerge rose petals and other flowers inside the jar, leaving them until they begin to rot. Once the flowers have decayed and the philtum has acquired that unmistakable, revolting smell, a picture of the target is introduced and sealed inside. \u003cspan\u003eThe jar is left undisturbed for 24 hours. By the time it is opened again, \u003cstrong\u003ethe target has been cursed\u003c\/strong\u003e. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis ceremony is... smelly. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIf you've never smelled the water from flowers that have been left to die and rot in a vase, don't.
