Ordo Maleficus Powers

From LSWiki

Ordo Maleficus Powers is DEAD! R.I.P. It isn't here anymore. Don't bother looking for it in-game.

Initiates of the Ordo Maleficus possess a large array of different abilities. These abilities range from curses, to attack invocations, to the binding of unholy power to form enhancements. Below are descriptions of the different categories and the names of the powers that fall within.

The dark power granted to a witch through the invocation of Samael has been known to produce lasting, debilitating effects upon their chosen victims. These effects are known simply as curses.

Molestia

• Description: The most common curse available to the witch, molestia, can be employed to cause a wasting disease known as pox, or a debilitating clumsiness known as hex.
• Blood Component: common
• Verbal Component: molestia <target> <type>
• Special Component: none

Oculus Malum

• Description: An insidious curse known as the Evil Eye. It has been known to cause grievous injury and even death.
• Blood Component: rare
• Verbal Component: oculus malum <target>
• Special Component: none

Crudelis

• Description: This curse radically speeds up the victim's metabolism, causing a great strain on their vitality.
• Blood Component: faerie
• Verbal Component: crudelis <target>
• Special Component: none
• Note: Appears to have at least some temporal element, as it staggers races which are vulnerable to temporal damage (such as ogres, orcs, goblinoids, etc...)

Impedimentum

• Description: A curse that significantly afflicts a victim's mobility.
• Blood Component: very unusual
• Verbal Component: impedimentum <target>
• Special Component: none

Tetanus

• Description: The victim of this curse looses the power of speech.
• Blood Component: unusual
• Verbal Component: tetanus <target>
• Special Component: none

Samael may also be invoked to cause instantaneous debilitating effects. These effects manifest as ravaging attack spells.

Enervare

• Description: This spell causes a bolt of unholy energy to strike an intended victim.
• Blood Component: very common
• Verbal Component: enervare <target>
• Special Component: none

Mons Flammas Eructans

• Description: This invocation opens a portal directly to Samael's domain. It manifests as a terrific fissure that continually belches out molten rock and choking gasses until the power of the spell plays itself out. Only the strongest of witches are able to call on Samael in this manner.
• Blood Component: angel, dragon, and chimera
• Verbal Component: mons flammas eructans
• Special Component: none

Vastare

• Description: Blasts the victim with unholy energies.
• Blood Component: unusual
• Verbal Component: vastare <target>
• Special Component: none

Tempestas

• Description: Summons a vortex of power known as the infernal tempest. These vortices seem almost sentient in their hunger for magical energy.
• Blood Component: dragon and unicorn
• Verbal Component: tempestas
• Special Component: none

It is also possible to bind the power invoked through Samael into enhancements that help to empower the witch.

Finally, there are manners in which the dark powers may be bound which fall outside of the three main categories. These abilities are largely utilitarian in nature.

When used in concert, the combined ability set of the Ordo Maleficus can easily overpower weaker foes while significantly hindering the more powerful. To activate the abilities, the witch merely needs to whisper the verbal component to Samael.
