You inflict an advanced form of scurvy on a creature. The creature must make a constitution saving throw. If it fails it is subject to these effects until the spell ends:
- The creature gets a -1 modifier to all attack and damage rolls against other creatures.
- The target wounds easily, all attacks against the target deal an additional 1 point of necrotic damage.
- Additionally the target experiences loose teeth and is slow to heal naturally.
- All natural healing is halved while diseased in this way.

Scurvy can be treated with lesser restoration or similar magic. Additionally it can be overcome by eating nutritious food on each day for three days.
