Greater Restoration no longer affects curses.

Remove Curses

Level: 3rd
School: Abjuration
Casting Time: 1 Action
Range: Touch
Components: V, S, M (relevant 100gp worth of components, consumed)
Duration: Instantaneous

Description

You choose one cursed creature or object that you can touch. Any curse of 3rd level or lower affecting the target ends immediately.

For each curse of 4th level or higher, make an ability check using your spellcasting ability. The DC equals 10 + the curse’s level. On a success, the curse ends.

If the target is a cursed magic item, refer to the rarity table below to determine its effective curse level. If you succeed on the check, the curse still remains on the item, but this spell breaks attunement, allowing the item to be removed or discarded.

At Higher Levels:

When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 4th level or higher, you automatically end the effects of any curse on the target if the curse’s level is equal to or lower than the level of the spell slot used.

Special Cases:

Certain unique or narrative-driven curses may fall outside this system (e.g., divine curses or those placed by ancient beings). These are up to DM discretion.
