How the Ritual Works

A traditional Chinese curse ritual — known as 打小人 (Da Siu Yan) — typically requires access to a specific location, timing tied to the lunar calendar, and physical materials. We've digitized this ancient practice to make it accessible worldwide, while preserving its authentic atmosphere and purpose.

This is not a game. This is not a toy. This is a ritual.

Step 1: Choose Your Enemy

Six types of petty persons have been identified through centuries of tradition:

• The Backstabber — They smile to your face, plot behind your back
• The Toxic Boss — Power without wisdom, authority without empathy
• The Ex — Some doors should stay closed forever
• The Energy Vampire — They drain your light and leave you hollow
• The Bully — They feed on fear. Tonight, the table turns
• Custom — You know exactly who they are

For a more powerful ritual, you can name a specific person. Speaking their true name into the ritual makes the curse personal.

Step 2: Strike the Paper Effigy

You have 30 seconds. Strike the paper figure as many times as you can. Each strike lands with a spark. The paper degrades with every hit.

This is the core of the ritual — the physical release of anger and frustration, channeled into a single focus.

Step 3: Burn It to Ash

The effigy is consumed by flames. Smoke rises. The paper dissolves. This is the moment of transformation — where anger becomes ash, and the curse takes hold.

Step 4: The Verdict

The ritual is complete. The result is revealed.

The basic ritual is free and complete. For those who seek greater power, the sealing ritual ensures the curse holds.
