Vile Damage
"I heard it utter the words just before they were all eaten alive! They sounded like nothing I'd ever heard before! But the strange thing is, I didn't really hear them at all. I felt them....somewhere deep."
——Only remaining witness of a greater demon summoning ritual.
Vile damage is a sinister form of harm that seeps into the very soul of its victims, inflicting not just physical pain but also corrupting their essence with malevolence. It often appears as a bubbling, black and green miasma that snakes towards its target before eating away at the victim's combined flesh and life force. It is especially harmful towards kind-hearted and holy beings, for it assaults the very essence of their being, not just the physical form. Victims of vile damage often suffer from disfigurements, psychological torment, and a sense of uncleanliness that can't be washed away.
