The Blood Curse

Type: Curse / Condition affecting Meldir (and others?)

Meldir awoke in an ancient stone circle at age 24 with no memory of how he got there. Since that night he has required a small amount of blood regularly to sustain his strength. If the bloodthirst is not sated, he loses max HP daily.

Known Sufferers

• Meldir — the primary known case
• Unknown person tied to a table with silver thread in the ancient ritual site — appears to suffer from the same curse. Status unknown after the [[Completed] Expedition North (Alaric)|Expedition North (Alaric)]] session.

Connection to the Crimson Concord

The “wrong thing” happened in a curing ritual — life must be given, not taken. The Crimson Concord may be responsible or connected.

Alaric Razor’s Findings

Found another ritual similar to Meldir’s that was performed. Leading the investigation. Joined the expedition north.

Open Questions

• What happened at the ancient stone circle when Meldir was 24?
• Who is the person on the table — how long have they been there?
• Can the curse be cured?
• Is the blood arm (from Valkyrian fight) related to the curse or something else?
