"Four soldiers, lined up to enter the room in 3... 2... 1-" The door bursts open.

While cooking, Pen uses her nails to pierce the base of her palm and allows a drop of her blood to join with whatever she's making, focusing her mind on people that have hurt her in the past and using that physical pain, as well as a simple incantation, to fuel her intent.
A simple ritual that Pen learned which causes angry spirits of the target's ancestors to immediately begin to haunt and affect the target. Her blood ties her to all of her ancestors by her DNA, and upon consumption by a target mingles with theirs to cause anyone in their family tree that might be angry with them to make that anger known. Most of the time, this is a spurned relative who died relatively recently - however the curse goes as far back as it needs to find an angry spirit. If you go far back enough, everyone has a connection to someone that died bitter and alone.
Increase your sacrificial Injury's Severity by 1 and spend 30 seconds to turn food into a trap. This trap lasts one day or until triggered or disarmed. This Effect cannot be used unless Pen prepared the food herself. Roll Charisma + Occult at Difficulty 6. Choose any number of the following symptoms:
The trap looks like food. Only those who have seen this trap before can identify it as a trap. Anyone who is aware of the trap may intuitively avoid, trigger, or destroy it.
Any Living target within within arm's reach that uses the trap as food will trigger it. Your target may resist by rolling Body at Difficulty 8.
When the trap is triggered, the target is afflicted with a Condition that causes the chosen symptoms. Symptoms begin to appear immediately, and will remain and continue to worsen until the affliction is cured. The affliction is not contagious and will not spread to others.
The affliction is not treatable by modern medicine. It may be diagnosed by rolling Intellect + Occult at Difficulty 6, and can be cured by bloodletting into a ritual circle while a priest performs an exorcism.
Any Scars, Traumas, or Injuries caused by your symptoms cannot be healed until the underlying Condition is cured.

You cannot issue another suggestion to the target until 10 minutes after they have completed the first command or 10 minutes after a failure.
The target is unaware that they are under supernatural influence and feel they are acting of their own free will. If you fail, they realize that you were attempting to influence them supernaturally with your command.
Your command can be an order to take an immediate Action. You cannot order a target to "do nothing," and they are free to take other Actions as they fulfill your request.
