Condition: Spell Rot Necrosis

 Spell Rot Necrosis

Duration: 1 turn

• You receied 2d6Necrotic for casting a level x spell while you have  Spell Rot.

Notes

• For Tactician difficulty, this damage is increased to 3d6⁠⁠Necrotic per spell level.
• This condition is prevented for  Jaheira if she is wearing  Khalid's Gift.
•  Shield does not trigger the damage.
• Cantrips and spells which use class resources (such as  Radiance of the Dawn) do not trigger the damage, as they inherently do not have levels.
• Spells cast for free thanks to features like  Arcane Battery are still treated as being cast at the chosen level.
• Fast traveling to another area before leaving the Lair, such as Rivington, does not remove Spell Rot.
•  Remove Curse removes Spell Rot. However, if self cast, the caster takes (final) damage on casting.
• Although  Astarion is not generally considered Undead with respect to most effects, he does appear to be immune to this condition, as a vampire avatar.
