Estai's Curse

A Spell which causes a tempered metal weapon (or artifact) touched by the caster to automatically shatter on its next weapon damage check, or strike. The enchantment lays dormant until invoked (by contact) or until its Duration expires, whichever comes first. The basic spell has no effect on enchanted weapons or artifacts and Curse never works on Warded weapons.
