Curses


Dragon Magazine General Discussion


If memory serves, Dragon had an issue on alternative curses. If not multiple issues on the subject. Anyone able to recall any of those issues?

P.S. What would be a nice touch here on the Dragon/Dungeon site would be to have a built in "master index" for all of the issues from the magazines... hehe :o)


There are additional/alternative curses in the Book of Vile Darkness.

While not on Paizo's site (and it only covers Dragon, not Dungeon) there's the infamously handy DragonDex:

If it was in Dragon, it'lll be listed here.

DragonDex is probably one of the best indexes for Dragon articles around - though it certainly has some limitations.

Searching through for the word "Curses" (including finding a "category" with that name) we get:

  • "Foiled, No Curses" by Robin D. Laws in issue 284
  • "Curses!" by Ed Greenwood in issue 77
  • "Curses" by Ed Rice in issue 229
  • "Curses: Never get even again - get ahead!" by Harold Pitt in issue 29
  • "Curses are Divine" by Mark Keavney in issue 167
  • "Beware of Quirks and Curses" by Holsinger & Peterson in issue 34
  • "Nasty Additions To a DM's Arsenal" by Richard Fichera in issue 77
  • "Insidious Items" by Timothy T. Murphy in issue 331
  • "Bazaar of the Bizarre: Blessings In Disguise" by Lloyd Brown III in issue 263
  • "Putting Evil To Good Use" by Jonathan M. Richards in issue 215

Hope that helps. :)

As for unique curses - I once cursed one of my players so that his character could only speak in rhymes. It was quite amusing - and more difficult than he thought.

edit: bah - Chris got to it first; now I look like a copy-cat. :P


Thanks for the replys guys... even you copy-cats :oP
Will certainly have to add that site into my favorites list.


Oh yeah, how did you manage to do a "search"? Somewhat computer iliterate here and didn't see a search button at all. :o(

I used Control-F and let Internet Explorer search through it. You can also get to it by clicking on the Edit menu, and then selecting Find.
