Your body is full of writhing parasites, which occasionally burst forth through your skin, mouth, and eyes. You tend to inspire repulsion, pity, and disgust in others.

You take a -4 penalty on Charisma-based skill checks.

On the upside, you cannot be further infested by other parasites, being immune to parasitic infestations, implantation of eggs or organisms, or attachment by blood drinkers. Such attempts either assimilate into your existing parasites, doing no further harm, or are simply unsuccessful. You are immune to the attacks of rot grubs.

At 5th level, you are immune to the sickened condition.

At 10th level, you are immune to the nauseated condition.

At 15th level, as a standard action you can summon a rot grub swarm, which appears adjacent to you. The swarm will attack anyone (other than you) in its space but is otherwise stationary and does not pursue creatures. The swarm dissipates after one minuter per curse level, crawling into your body or withering into gore and slime. You may use this ability once per day.
