Curse Focus (Cantrip) You learn one rank 0 Curse spell and gain the Punishing Curse talent.

Punishing Curse On your turn, you can use an action to expend the casting of a rank 0 Curse spell you have learned to cause each creature cursed by you to take 1d3 damage.

Grotesque Doll (Sense Magic) You always know the exact location relative to your own of any creature for which you have fashioned a control doll. In addition, you increase the number of boons granted by your control doll by 1 and banes imposed by the doll by 1.

Accursed Recovery (Spell Recovery or Improved Spell Recovery) You can use an action to heal damage equal to your healing rate. Then, each creature within long range cursed by a spell you cast must succeed on a Will challenge roll or take 1d6 damage and gain 1 Insanity. Once you use this talent, you must complete a rest before you can use it again.

Retributive Curse (Counterspell) When you take damage from a creature you can see, you can use a triggered action and expend a casting of a Curse spell you have learned to force the triggering creature to make a Will challenge roll. On a failure, the creature takes 1d6 damage per rank of the spell you expended and becomes cursed for 1 minute or until you use an action to lift the curse. While cursed in this way, the triggering creature is either impaired or slowed, your choice.

Improved Accursed Recovery (Spell Recovery or Improved Spell Recovery) Creatures that get a failure on the Will challenge roll to resist your Accursed Recovery take 2d6 extra damage and gain 1d3 additional Insanity.
