Contract of Nephthys

Contract of Nephthys was a divine enchantment spell used only by specialty priestesses devoted to Nephthys called Goodwives.

This spell was used commonly during business dealings in Mulhorand. The Church of Nephthys usually demanded 1–5% of any profits made by such contracts.

Effects
This spell bound two willing parties into a specific agreement, the breaking of which held severe consequences. All of the specific terms of the contract were recited by the caster during casting. If a party failed to meet the terms of the contract despite their best efforts to do so, then the hand of Nephthys would ensure their business did not make a profit. Any party deliberating breaking any of the contract terms would find their business and all wealth crushed by Nephthys into dust and bankruptcy.

All penalties incurred by the contract would expire one year after the spell was cast regardless of when the penalty occurred. The original caster could remove the contract early under special circumstances.

Components
In addition to verbal and somatic components, this spell required as a material component a hair from each participant and a handful of gold dust worth at least 100 gp to cast.
