Changes: Blood malediction

Revision as of 16:39, 17 January 2020

A blood malediction (incantation unknown) is a curse that can resurface in a victim's descendants causing debilitation.^[1]

History

Astoria Malfoy suffered from a "serious" blood malediction, as a result of a curse placed on one of her ancestors, which resurfaced in her after many generations.^[1] The condition left her frail, and thus she had only one child, Scorpius. Childbirth was noted to have been risky to her health due to the malediction, as Draco and her son tried to dissuade her from it to preserve her health.^[1] It likely contributed to her early death in 2019.^[2]

Known victims

Astoria Malfoy's ancestor

Behind the scenes

As Nagini was a Maledictus that suffered from a blood curse which would ultimately destine her to transform permanently into a snake, her condition would likely be considered a blood malediction.^[3]
