You touch a creature, and that creature must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or become cursed for the duration of the spell. When you cast this spell, choose to curse the target with magical Withering or Burning. If you choose Withering and the creature is immune to necrotic damage, they automatically succeed their saving throw. If you choose Burning and the creature is immune to radiant damage, they automatically succeed their saving throw.
Withering. While cursed, the target's flesh and blood is twisted to become mortally dependent on light. While in darkness, the target takes 20 necrotic damage at the start of every turn, loses any resistances to bludgeoning, piercing, slashing, acid, and cold damage, and has disadvantage on ability checks. While in dim light, the target takes 10 necrotic damage at the start of every turn, and suffers -5 on ability checks. The target gains resistance to radiant damage for the duration of the curse
Burning. While cursed, the target's flesh and blood is twisted to become hypersensitive to light. While in bright light, the target takes 20 radiant damage at the start of every turn, loses any resistances to bludgeoning, piercing, slashing, lightning, and fire damage, and has disadvantage on ability checks. While in dim light, the target takes 10 radiant damage at the start of every turn, and suffers -5 on ability checks. The target gains resistance to necrotic damage for the duration of the curse.
A Greater Restoration spell ends this effect.
