Notes

• If cast on companions, they will lose 10 approval when the effect ends, regardless of difficulty. On Tactician and above difficulty, casting the cantrip on someone is considered a crime. Some targets may immediately become hostile if they see the caster upon the effect expiring.
  • If using custom difficulty, this behaviour is specifically tied to the Additional Combat Mechanics option.
• Split Enchantment, the level 10 Enchantment Wizard feature, breaks the casting of this cantrip in dialogue dice rolling, and will not result in the roll being made with advantage.
