You touch a non-magical object, infusing it with malevolent energy and transforming it into a cursed object. The object must be no larger than a 5-foot cube. Once cursed, the object gains an eerie aura, radiating a faint darkness. Choose one of the following curse options:

• Curse of Misfortune. Any creature that touches or interacts with the cursed object must make a Wisdom saving throw or subtract 1d4 from all attack rolls, ability checks, and saving throws the creature makes for 24 hours. Once a creature has been affected in this way they cannot be affected again until 24 hours has passed.
• Curse of Binding. Any creature that touches or interacts with the cursed object must make a Strength saving throw or become magically bound to it. While bound, the creature is unable to let go of the object voluntarily and has disadvantage on all Dexterity checks and saving throws. The creature may repeat the saving throw as an Action on each of its turns, ending the effect on a success.
• Curse of Consumption. Any creature that touches or interacts with the cursed object must make a Constitution saving throw or suffer a draining effect. The creature takes 4d6 necrotic damage and has its maximum hit points reduced by the amount of damage taken. This reduction lasts until the creature finishes a long rest.
• Curse of Haunting. Any creature that touches or interacts with the cursed object must make a Charisma saving throw or become haunted by malevolent spirits. The creature is tormented by haunting whispers and eerie apparitions, and has Disadvantage on all Wisdom checks and saving throws. The creature may repeat the saving throw each hour, ending the effect on a success.

The object is considered magical for as long as it remains cursed. The object remains cursed until targeted with a Remove Curse, Dispel Magic, or similar spell. The object's ability to curse creatures is suppressed for one hour if the object is moved more than 5 feet from a location. During this time, the object still remains cursed and magical but cannot affect creatures.
