Notes
of Copper (Acid) Ancestry learns this spell automatically.- Despite the claim made in the spell's description, a creature affected by Hideous Laughter is not technically considered Prone for the purposes of interactions with other mechanics. For example, Hook Horrors may Multiattack a Prone target, but not a target affected by Hideous Laughter.
