Mold Touch is a level 3 spell from the Priest Scroll in Icewind Dale, which was added with Heart of Winter.
Description[]
| “ | This spell infects the creature the caster touches with a rapidly spreading brown mold. If the infected creature fails a Save vs. Spell, the infection is severe and the creature takes magic damage as follows: 1st round: 4d6 damage 2nd round: 3d6 damage 3rd round: 2d6 damage 4th round: 1d6 damage If the Saving Throw is successful, the damage is reduced as follows: 1st round: 2d6 damage 2nd round: 1d6 damage 3rd round: 1d6 damage Each round after the first, the nearest creature within 10 ft. of the victim must make a Save vs. Spell or be infected by the mold at full strength. This process continues until the mold fails to infect a suitable host in time. Creatures already under the effects of the mold cannot contract it again. The brown mold quickly dies once the spell expires. |

Mold Touch has no effect on the undead or on golems. These entities also cannot host the mold and pass it on to other creatures.
