Whispering Dust
When the Sereth uses Whispering Dust, they release a fine, shimmering dust from their wings. This dust carries a subtle magical influence, allowing the Sereth to softly speak a compelling suggestion to all creatures within a 10-foot radius. Each target must make a Wisdom saving throw, and on a failed save, they are persuaded to follow a reasonable suggestion given by the caster for up to 24 hours.

The spell can persuade multiple creatures within the radius to perform reasonable actions that are beneficial to the caster’s goals, such as allowing safe passage, sharing information, standing guard, or even subtly swaying political decisions. The long duration ensures that the caster’s influence lasts throughout the day, making this a powerful tool for control.
None directly; it does not cause harm.
Wisdom saving throw (Spell Save DC: 8 + Proficiency Bonus + Charisma Modifier). Each creature within the radius makes its own saving throw.
Does not scale with higher-level spell slots; remains a 4th-level effect.
4th Level Spell Slot (if not used as an innate racial ability)
A fine, shimmering dust is released from the caster’s wings, drifting gently through the air and sparkling softly. The dust envelops all creatures within a 10-foot radius, creating a subtle, hypnotic shimmer that makes the caster’s words seem more compelling. It appears as if the caster’s words are carried on a gentle, magical breeze, echoing softly in the minds of those affected.
A faint glimmer lingers around the eyes and ears of the affected creatures for a few moments after the spell is cast, as if the suggestion has been subtly etched into their minds. Throughout the 24-hour period, those affected may occasionally see faint sparkles in their peripheral vision, reminding them of the caster’s word
• Only Sereth of level 10 or higher can use this ability innately.
• The targets must be able to see and hear the caster, and they must understand the language being spoken.
• The suggestion must be reasonable and cannot lead to self-harm or overtly dangerous actions.
• If one of the creatures leaves the 10-foot radius during the initial casting, they are no longer targeted by the spell.
This spell is an innate ability exclusive to Sereth who are level 10 or higher. They can use it once per day without expending a spell slot, recharging after a long rest. For non-Sereth, the effect can be mimicked by using a purchased pouch of Whispering Dust, sold by the Sereth, which grants a single use of this spell.
