Cast
(somatic, verbal)Area 15-foot emanation, centered on you
Duration sustained up to 1 minute
Saving Throw Will
Sadness flows out of you into nearby creatures, blotting out any other thoughts they had. The first time a creature begins its turn in the area or enters the area, it must attempt a Will save. If it later leaves and reenters the area, it uses the same effect as before.
Critical Success The creature is unaffected.
Success The creature takes a -1 status penalty to skill checks and Perception checks as long as it remains in the area.
Failure While the creature is in the area, any emotion effects of lower counteract level than overflowing sorrow are suppressed, and whenever the creature attempts to use an emotion action or cast an emotion spell, it must succeed at a DC 11 flat or the action or spell is disrupted.
Critical Failure As failure, but the creature cannot use emotion actions or spells.
Heightened (+2) When you Cast the Spell, you can choose to increase the area by 5 feet.
Traits
Anything that doesn't list another rarity trait (uncommon, rare, or unique) automatically has the common trait. This rarity indicates that an ability, item, or spell is available to all players who meet the prerequisites for it. A creature of this rarity is generally known and can be summoned with the appropriate summon spell.
EnchantmentEffects and magic items with this trait are associated with the enchantment school of magic, typically involving mind control, emotion alteration, and other mental effects.
ClericThis indicates abilities from the cleric class.
EmotionThis effect alters a creature's emotions. Effects with this trait always have the mental trait as well. Creatures with special training or that have mechanical or artificial intelligence are immune to emotion effects.
IncapacitationAn ability with this trait can take a character completely out of the fight or even kill them, and it's harder to use on a more powerful character. If a spell has the incapacitation trait, any creature of more than twice the spell's level treats the result of their check to prevent being incapacitated by the spell as one degree of success better, or the result of any check the spellcaster made to incapacitate them as one degree of success worse. If any other effect has the incapacitation trait, a creature of higher level than the item, creature, or hazard generating the effect gains the same benefits.
MentalA mental effect can alter the target's mind. It has no effect on an object or a mindless creature.
