Is Blindness / Deafness a curse?


Rules Questions


So I wonder if Blindness/Deafness is a curse because on d20pfsrd (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/magic/all-spells/b/blindness-deafness)
and on paizo there is no mention of it being a curse (http://paizo.com/pathfinderRPG/prd/spells/blindnessDeafness.html)
is paizo missing information or is d20fsrd wrong?


I would say D20pfsrd is wrong.

Some spells were given additional descriptors in later printings of the books. It's possible that d20pfsrd is actually more up-to-date than the PRD. But, I don't know the most recent book it was published in to check.


Found also that archiveofnethys have the same thing as d20pfsrd

I would always defer to Paizo as it should be the first hand source.
Interestingly Archives of Nethys lists it as [curse] too. My (old) hardcopy of the CRB doesn't. I can't find a relevant FAQ. I'm baffled as to where both AoN and PFSRD got the [curse] tag from. I'm sure someone will point out the blindingly obvious that I've missed though.

It was updated to have the keyword in Ultimate Magic, and is listed in the PRD here.
