"Graven" - The Black Spot
Okay, so this Curse is only tangentially related to my own set of themes in that it utilises Undead as a component of its punishment, but I'm okay with that!

"Shiver My Timbers" is now playing on repeat in my brain!
The Black Spot is a Divine Curse most commonly seen on sailors or those who have instigated betrayal out at sea. It is a source of great torment, as not only is a literal Black Spot emblazoned upon the body, but an Echo of the wronged individual is engraved onto the betrayer's Soul.
