Cursed life in an anti magic field

[CyberThread]

Question, a cursed person, ((bestow curse, or cursed item))

If they enter an anti magic field, magical affects get suppressed not dispelled. Could someone snap out of the affects of those spells/items, if they walk into such an environment?

Yes. Remove Curse even specifies what happens when a cursed item's influence is temporarily suspended (because that's what it does) - the wielder can safely get rid of it, probably by smashing it to bits.

here is one doozy I found confusing


Bestow curse counters remove curse.

Remove curse counters and dispels bestow curse.

Not quite.

A counterspell in D&D terms is simply a reverse invocation of whatever you're countering so that the magical energies cancel out. You can even use the same spell that they're using. Some spells that are each other's opposites optionally allow using one to counter the other.

Would someone that is cursed by an item, willfully fail a save, or would the curse force them to resist , or does this just depend on the type of curse it is?

Just seems cursed items are woefully cheap to create , compared to other magical things.

[Flickerdart]

That's not how harmless spells work - the default is no save, and if the target doesn't wish to have the spell cast upon them, they have the option to resist. Since the spell is not compelling the owner to part with the cursed item, the curse doesn't force the carrier to resist it.

Well, one interpretation is they're versions of normal items on which the creator royally screwed up or cut corners so it doesn't work right.

OR got horribly right in the case of the -2 sword. Iaijutsu has never been easier!

The Ring of Clumbsiness isn't so bad for a Psion or noncaster. To them, it's just a 75% cheaper Ring of Feather Falling with -4 Dex attached.
