	It is also not uncommon for someone to ~~get~~ ''Cursed Brain Syndrome'' (Commonly known as a Faltered) from ''over'' interaction with a curse. Whether on purpose, or accident, overexposure to a curse can cause a cycle of anti-aether negativity. This in turn, causes one to continue to irritate the curse, thus making it ''more'' powerful & slowly take hold of their mind.
