Whispering Dust

 
Description - How would you describe 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.

polymer Effects and Mechanics
Positive Effects

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.

Saving Throw

Visuals - What do the visual effects of Whispering Dust look like?

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.

 
Aftereffects - What visual effects persist after Whispering Dust?

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

 
lock Requirements
Limitations - What limitations does Whispering Dust have? What can't it do?

• 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.

Notes

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.
