The Target is infused with a strange vitality, increasing its Body by 1 and granting an ADV Contesting Rolls against effects that cause Exhausted.

However, this increased Body comes at the cost of leaching away the target’s lifespan in order to increase its physical prowess. Every time the Target uses its Body Ability for anything – Attack, Skill Rolls etc. – the Target ages 1 year if it fails a Body Contesting Roll. Every 50 years the Target ages, it gains an additional 1 points of Body.

If the Curse is removed, its Body returns to its normal value, and then the Target immediately loses a number of points of Body, Body, and Body equal to the extra points of Body score it had when the Curse ended. If this reduces the target’s Body to -6 it is Dead.
