DESCRIPTION

This spell plants a seed of supernatural fear deep in a subject’s mind, causing self-doubt, stuttering, and evasiveness.

Affected creatures have difficulty meeting anyone’s gaze and seem dishonest or guilty.

The target takes a –4 penalty on Bluff and Diplomacy checks to convince another of the truth of her words, and on Diplomacy or Intimidate checks to influence another creature’s attitude.
