Description:
This spell will allow the caster to amplify any affliction(s) the target is suffering from.
Only one instance of this spell can affect a target at a time and will not work with any other
spell, ritual, psionic or other ability that also enhances/amplifies the target's current
afflictions.
For the duration, any penalties the target is receiving from a disease and/or spell/psionics
ability in effect, the penalty is increased by one, plus one more for every three full levels
of the character. Any damage that is inflicted melee round to melee rounds is also increased
in such fashion.
Please note if the affliction is a disability, like disfigured or missing limbs, for example
this does not amplify penalties for such things.
Critical Success:
Double range, duration and affliction penalties.
Critical Fumble:
As the Critical Success above, but affects caster instead. Also apply those penalties to the
inflicted casting corruption.
