The Scholar
As we play for time, the young woman shakes her head. “Your argument is scattered. One must be firm in one’s conclusion.” Turning downriver, the phantom fades to nothing.
The Scholar finds your argument lacking. The party suffers the Curse of the Scholar. If this is the party's third Curse, click here.

When a spirit is displeased by the party, it will lay its Curse upon them. Curses have dire consequences. The more Curses a party gathers, the more lives will be claimed in the Heart of the Wood. Furthermore, if a party incurs three Curses, the Wood's spirits will reject them and they will be forced to flee for their lives, ending the game.
When you incur a Curse, place it in a designated area of the table so that all travellers are aware of it.
