Their curse however seem to sustain them to a degree as well as granting them some powerful abilities, however it is slowly but surely get a grip of their existence an will soon start to warp them into horrible creatures if not stopped. Verflucht Humans live a sad existence, completely indistinguishable from normal humans saved for a mark on their skin, they are often driven to exile when discovered.

The mark start with no curse token, it is inert. However some action increase the amount of curse token on the verflucht human's cursed mark (see Curse Token below). At 1 to 5 curse token the mark cause a numb pain (no penalties), at 6 to 10 tokens you are constantly fatigued, at 11 to 15 tokens you are beseeched by nightmares every night, at 16-20 you are constantly staggered and at 21 or more you become consumed by the curse and turn into a monster (see cursed ability, usually this mean turning into a NPC).
