Circle of Moonbeams Spell

E/F/M:

This Spell creates an Effect of a multitude of pale rays which resemble beams from a full moon. These rays illuminate the Area of the dweomer. However. the beams appear and disappear, flash on and off. moving and shifting as might spotlights or moonlight on a night where ragged clouds rapidly pass before the face of the moon, shadows from tossing branches brightening and shadowing the areas within view of the onlooker. Practitioners must decide at lime of activation whether they will center this dweomer on a fixed point within the Distance range indicated or else upon themselves so as to make it possess a mobile Area of Effect. The Effect causes these rays of ever-changing illumination to hypnotize those animals. creatures, and beings in the Area, save for those individuals who are of the same Ethos as the caster. The caster, and all of Moonlight Ethos, are immune to the hypnosis. All subject to the hypnotic Effect will cease movement immediately and watch the play of the rays, gradually falling into a trance-like state of slumber over a period of 2D6 CTs. Thereafter, these subjects will be deeply asleep as long as they remain in the Area and for 2D6 BTs thereafter. However, a subject with a SM Pow has that percentage chance of being able to resist this dweomer, the roll being made at DR''Moderate"--DR "Easy" if possessing the Priestcræft K/S Area, and with a 10% addition of that STEEP to their SM Pow if also under Vow.
