Description: You have taken a vile green Kyuss worm into your own body and bound yourself to its power.

Prerequisites: Living Creature, Host a Kyuss Worm


Successfully hosting a Kyuss worm requires a special binding ritual. The ritual requires 4 hours of uninterrupted meditation, 500 gp in special materials, and a living Kyuss worm. At the end of the ceremony, you must succeed at a DC 15 Fortitude saving throw or die. If you fail the saving throw, you rise as a spawn of Kyuss within 1d6+4 rounds. If you succeed at the saving throw, you can add the following spells to your class spell list:

2nd - path of worms 3rd - consume the parasite, the worm within 4th - mindworms 5th - servant of the green corruption 7th - extrude wormswarm

You must still learn and prepare these spells according to the normal spellcasting rules for your class. The worm can be removed only by casting one of the following spells: dispel evil, heal, remove curse, or remove disease in a hallowed area, or by casting consume the parasite. If the worm is removed, you cannot cast these spells and lose any of these spells that you may have prepared. You must repeat the binding ritual to regain this feat's benefits.
