Mark Of Sin: Pride

Created by Zorvandir 2808

Mark Of Sin: Pride is a supernatural sigil born from the overwhelming arrogance of Zorvandir, the ancient god of beasts, during the time when divinity still walked among mortals in human form. When inscribed upon a creature's flesh or soul, this mark serves as a conduit that amplifies the most destructive aspects of pride within the bearer, magnifying their vanity, self-importance, and desire for dominance. The mark itself is said to have manifested when Zorvandir's accumulated sins were violently torn from his ascending form as he transcended mortality and claimed godhood. Those who bear this mark find their ego swelling to dangerous proportions, compelling them toward increasingly reckless displays of superiority and self-aggrandizement. The mark's influence grows stronger the more the bearer indulges in prideful acts, creating a vicious cycle of hubris and downfall. Legends speak of countless mortals who have been destroyed by their own vanity after receiving this curse, their pride ultimately becoming the instrument of their demise.

Effects

Effects

The target must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or receive the Mark of Sin: Pride. While marked, the target's Charisma score increases by 2, but they must make a Wisdom saving throw (DC 15) whenever they are presented with an opportunity to boast or display superiority. On a failure, they are compelled to act in a prideful manner, taking 2d6 psychic damage for each reckless act they commit. The mark amplifies their pride, causing them to take an additional 1d6 psychic damage for every hour they remain marked.
