Cursebound Arrows

Ammunition (arrows), rare

These twisted arrows are kept within a bundle of 2d8 arrows, each one fletched with raven feathers and inscribed with ancient runes of dark magic. These arrows carry a sinister enchantment, binding their power to target the insignificant.

When you hit a creature with a Cursebound Arrow, in addition to dealing damage, the arrow lodges itself deeply, inflicting a swift, but potent curse. The target must succeed on a DC 14 Charisma saving throw or suffer from the curse's effects. The curse lasts for 1 minute or until removed by a Remove Curse spell.

Each time the cursed creature uses an action, they take necrotic damage equal to your proficiency bonus. This damage represents the dark magic of the arrow gnawing at their life force, punishing them for every move they make.
