This spell allows the White Order Mage to devastate a vast area with the Corrupting touch of the Dark Ones. The Mage must embark upon a long ritual, many hours in length, whose cruelty causes the Mage to lose 4 Health and 5 Phys for the next day. As the ritual progresses the area around the Mage becomes tainted with a dark power. If the ritual reaches its conclusion all plants in the area die, and all animals flee or perish. The ground becomes red and blasted, shot through with bitter black ash, and incapable of supporting life for a hundred years afterwards. Any source of water becomes filled with salts that make it tainted and undrinkable, while deposits of ore are broken and made impure. Any Survival Blessing spell is destroyed. The area of effect of this terrible magic is 10 strides radius per level of Mage casting the spell.
On complete the spell creates a blasted area in which the power of the White Order is enhanced. White Order magic used in this area causes no corruption.
The corruption gained from casting the spell is permenant.
Blood+1 strides radius per level per blood level
