What would be a good curse involving light?

How about turning to ash in sunlight?

Light blinds you painfully, making you totally blind in daylight, but you see no better in darkness than before. So the best you can tolerate and see with is a dim candle at night, that itches and scratches at your eyes.

target is permanently hungover.

Whenever you sneeze the sun explodes.

>>43748095
The sun is always in your eyes.

Anything within 10-15 ft of them that produces light only produces about half of the light it would.

They produce a shadow in every direction.

They produce a shadow pointing towards the light source.
>>
>>43748095
May all your works be known, all your deeds as clear as unclouded day. May no shadow nor shroud obscure your doings from the world of men. May the darkness you love shun you as you shun the light of day. May you never be hidden nor concealed. May light forever find you always.

Your vision is shifted in wavelangth, losing red and orange, but picking up the closer part of the UV band, letting you see details unavailable to normal humans, while obscuring otherwise obvious ones, and making all colored art(paintings, drawings, film, computer graphics) look off and bad. Silver lining, flowers look amazing.
>>
>>43748095
Annoying rainbow effects in your eyes all the time.

No matter how you hold your phone or angle a screen, there WILL be glare over a third of the screen, even in complete darkness.

You now perceive colors in negative.

You glow brightly, but you are unable to perceive the light reflecting off of objects, making it useless as an aid.

All light which falls on you is drained of color, leaving you monochrome.

Your eyes now perceive the entire electromagnetic spectrum. Your brain is not adjusted accordingly.

You now weigh twelve pounds, because you were cursed with shitty puns.
>>
>>43748095
Light that enters your eyes is distorted in such a way that anything or anyone you find unattractive is shown to you in its full glory- wrinkles and old flabby naked skin, flopping around, whenever you would normally see something you find attractive.

>Annoying rainbow effects in your eyes all the time.

My current pair of glasses do this, between the lenses and some moron mirroring the rim interiors, every light gets a corresponding halo along the rim, some of which comes out in rainbows and some in the original color. After like 4-6 weeks It stopped being a problem and I now miss the effect without them.
>>
>>43748095

Everything is lens flare. Even when you have your eyes closed.

Burn out the subject's eyes with searing light.
>>
>>43748385
And then you become an artist or some other type of performer and achieve instant, complete renown due to "May all your works be known"

That's a terrible (as in bad in its function, not as in terrible for the cursed) curse for anyone who is not a sneaky git.

No shit. Thats why you put it on sneaky gits. Also I think you're reading way to much into the "May all your works be known" part. It would probably just be focused around illegal/underhanded works, not all works.
>>
>>43748564

Problem is, that's all his works, not just the ones he's proud of. That includes his worst art. People will even know about those godawful fanfics he wrote when he was 13.
>>
>>43748564
Nah, this shit's curse logic. Your works are known, you are not. Everyone who sees your art will get the vague feeling that they've seen it before and dismiss it as unoriginal.
Of course, the moment you do something you DON'T want associated with you everyone will know you did it immediately, because fuck you you're cursed.

Being under specific types of light cause different effects.
>Strong white light means you cannot tell a lie or act unjust
>Warm, orange light causes an internal burning sensation that increases in temperature in accordance to how energetic you are
>Dim, blue light causes depressive or disturbing thoughts
>Artificially colored lights disorient you, as if in a bad drug trip
>Neutral light is the only safe light

Whenever the sun explodes, you sneeze

Whenever you change clothes, an unfortunate reflection somehow manages to expose your junk to the world.

You're a monster.

Your body reflects all light. This will a)make you a glowing target, and b)make you effectively blind since your eyes can no longer absorb light.

This is also the campaign in which we introduce the light-eater.
>>
>>43748095
You've got a constant halo of light. Good luck ever avoiding notice again.
>>
>>43748095
Everybody's crotches are shown in negative and high contrast to you, so that actually important matters have to fight for your attention.
>>
Everybody looks like they have telescopes attached to their heads, pointing wherever they look.

Bullshit, you just become mirror with weird shape.

Ha! Joke's on you, the sun is constantly exploding!

You do realize that such a curse would prevent your capacity to ever lie or be subtle about anything, right?

There are a lot of people who would be affected by such a limitation, not just sneaky characters. Anyone with illicit activity, anyone with a fetish, anyone with anything that is socially reprehensible... this would be a nightmare for anyone but the most purest pure morally-sound characters.

Hurts just to think about.

So basically you have the eyes of a cuddlefish.

Seeing those on a person would be creepy as hell.


Like, look up pictures people who don't have eyes. I'm not even posting an image because of how freaky that is to behold.

The subject shoots laser from his eyes
The laser is not lethal, nor blinding for anyone getting in the way, and it disperses fast.
It's just very annoying and ruins all of your photos.
>>
>>43750381
whenever the sun's not exploding, you sneeze
>>
>>43752153
And of course, the curse doesn't override thermodynamics: Your body consume shit to power the lasers, your gains in particular.
>>
Completely at random, when you defecate, you are shown the insides of your bowels while they vacate.
Additionally, all of your internal organs glow bright enough, in separate colors, to be visible through most clothing, to the point that stealth becomes impossible.
>>
Your head is surrounded by a halo of light. Though it can be covered by a helmet, it is too bright for most to ever look upon, and could drive those who stared long enough blind.

The moment it is light out, you must wake, and do not feel tired throughout the day. But the moment day turns to night, you must sleep.

Sometimes, parts of your body become ethereal like beams of light shining in a dark place. It helps you avoid attacks, but it also means you cannot grab anything.

Symbollically, the god that controls light has disowned you. You are forever surrounded by a shroud of darkness no light can penetrate, though as a mercy you can still yet see.
>>
>>43752313
Ahah, time to become a weeaboo neet at the north pole half a year!
>>
>>43748095
No matter where you are or what time it is the sun is always in your eye.
>>
Being completely unable to see it.... aaah, yeah, think about it.
