Isn't that similar to how "The Silent curse" works from Duyuei?

Just that its...Way more fluff and player Agency?

are there alternatives you'd be okay with? afterall the consequences need to be 100% agreed on beforehand, so it's not like it can surprise someone, and its only when they actively choose to ignore consequences they prior agreed to.

I think there should be some way to find some middle ground where it can work to enhance RP.

To clarify on point 3.) Its meant that the consequences that occur, whatever they will be, have to be agreed to prior and those were just examples of what could be possible.
