Curse of Conceited Obsession

This curse inflicts the target with an obsessive self infatuation. The target must make a Charisma saving throw (DC 17), which is modified by the Curse Strength Table. On a successful save, the target becomes aware that somebody attempted to curse them. On a failed save, the target becomes cursed and is unaware of this. Upon the completion of this curse’s triggering event, the target automatically advances to stage 1 of this curse.  

Triggering event

The next time the cursed creature looks into a mirror or reflective surface, it spontaneously cracks.  

Stage 1

The cursed creature is compelled to stop and admire themselves whenever they see their own reflection.  

Stage 2

The cursed creature becomes obsessed with looking for and finding its own reflection wherever it goes. Additionally, the cursed creature has disadvantage on attack rolls.  

Stage 3

The cursed creature is driven to find or, if necessary, build a location where it can see its own reflection from many angles. The cursed creature is compelled to remain in this location and admire itself. Additionally, attack rolls against the creature gain advantage.  

Culmination

Upon failing the final escalation check, the cursed creature twists into a deformed figure and becomes a Weeping Willow. If the creature is a player character, they become an NPC under the GM’s control.
