The Exaer Curse (Exaero), also known as the Asphyxiation Curse, is a tool of the Dark Arts and a dangerous curse as can be used to kill. When cast at low power, the curse causes a temporary depravation of oxigen in the victim's lungs as if the victim was under heavy exercise, if cast at full power however the effect is similar to a decompressive effect, rupturing the victim's lungs and causing it to die a painful death by asphyxiation.
This curse can also be cast at spaces to create vacuum chambers or dead bodies to relieve gasses, it is used to create Inferi in this capacity.
Etymology[]
