The infamous Death’s Curse, an ancient and forbidden spell, grants the caster the immortal life while exacting a gruesome toll on their physical form. Practiced exclusively by the Necromancers of Fire Isle Mages, this arcane ritual transforms its wielder into a Lich—a being suspended between life and death. Driven by an insatiable desire for eternal existence, these high-level mages willingly embrace the curse, trading the ephemeral nature of their mortal coil for enduring consciousness. As Death’s Curse takes effect, the mage’s flesh undergoes a relentless decay, a macabre metamorphosis that reduces them to skeletal remains. Yet, the Lich persists, a sentient entity bound by the necromantic forces of the curse. This dark bargain with immortality ensures that the Lich, becomes an enduring repository of forbidden knowledge and arcane power.
