Editing Umbral Domains: Changeling Arts IllEase (section)

=== **** Mesmerize ===

Causes observers of the target to find it endlessly fascinating and stand around or follow the target to stare at it for hours. The caster may describe what about the target they find so captivating or intriguing. Obvious physical pain will temporarily snap the mesmerized persons out of their state, but only actual pain, not simply the threat of injury, and after the discomfort is dealt with the subjects will again seek to view the object of the mesmerizing target.

Each round observers may make a Willpower check to shrug off the effect. After the first attempt each additional try consumes a point of temporary Willpower. The difficulty of the check is 6+ the number of successes gained in the original casting. Those who gain three successes can no longer be fascinated by this casting of the cantrip but may succumb to other castings at a later time.

The duration of the Mesmerizing state on the initial target is dictated by the number of successes gained in the casting:

'''1''' - a Scene

'''2''' - 3 hours

'''3''' - a day

'''4''' - a week

'''5''' - a month
