Curse is a 1st level spell in the School of Fire Magic. It is a counterpart for the spell Bless. The game manual incorrectly states that curse makes a unit deal "80% of minimum damage - 1" (to a minimum of 1 damage). It actually makes the troop deal "minimum damage - 1" (to a minimum of 1).

For units with big damage range, Curse is a complete disaster. Examples include Harpies and Harpy Hags (range 1–4), Hell Hounds and Cerberi (range 2–7), and Air and Storm Elementals (range 2–8).
