Ironeater curse

Primary Action. Provokes. Single target, Range 3. WIL and LIF checks to resist. Target becomes cursed, their skin flecking and sloughing away in red rust. Target must eat iron to halt the progression, otherwise their bones turn to sponge, their blood turns clear and they die. Their bodies can be useful for reagents in this state. Iron filings are the best to eat, but any iron will do. Breaking the curse requires either the caster to forgive it, or for the target to drink their weight with iron filled blood. Each day you take D6 life damage regardless, and start the day impaired. You may only have one ironeater curse active at a time. If you recast this incantation, you forgive the prior.
