## Mother Cyst *You gain the ability to cast necrotic cyst spells by growing a cyst of your own.* **Prerequisite:** Caster level 1st, Knowledge (religion) 2 ranks **Benefit:** You grow an internal cyst of undead flesh called a mother cyst. The cyst may be noticeable as a discolored swelling on your skin, if desired. The mother cyst is slightly painful, but otherwise isn’t harmful. The mother cyst grants you access to a selection of cyst-related spells listed below. You cast these spells like any other spell you can cast, once you host a mother cyst (if you are a caster who prepares spells, you can prepare all necrotic cyst spells without referring to a spellbook, as if you had the Spell Mastery feat for each such spell). **Necrotic Cyst Spells:** > 1st—_necrotic awareness_ > 2nd—_necrotic cyst, necrotic scrying_ > 3rd—_necrotic bloat_ > 4th—_necrotic domination_ > 5th—_necrotic burst_ > 6th—_necrotic eruption_ > 7th—_necrotic tumor_ > 8th—_necrotic empowerment_ > 9th—_necrotic termination_ **Normal:** A creature without this feat cannot cast necrotic cyst spells.
