Saving Throw Will
Each creature in the area becomes drowsy and might fall asleep. A creature that falls Unconscious from this spell doesn't fall Prone or release what it's holding. This spell doesn't prevent creatures from waking up due to a successful Perception check, limiting its utility in combat.
Critical Success The creature is unaffected.
Success The creature takes a -1 status penalty to Perception checks for 1 round.
Failure The creature falls Unconscious. If it's still Unconscious after 1 minute, it wakes up automatically.
Critical Failure The creature falls Unconscious. If it's still Unconscious after 1 hour, it wakes up automatically.
Heightened (4th) The creatures fall Unconscious for 1 round on a failure or 1 minute on a critical failure. They fall Prone and release what they're holding, and they can't attempt Perception checks to wake up. When the duration ends, the creature is sleeping normally instead of automatically waking up.
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.
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.
SleepThis effect can cause a creature to fall asleep or get drowsy.
