Stunned (...)
You summon a compact explosion in an area that sends out a blinding powder affecting creatures in the area. Choose a point within range. Creatures within a 20-foot-radius sphere are blinded for 1 minute and must make a Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, the creature is stunned while they are blinded. At the end of each of its turns, the target can make another Constitution saving throw to no longer be stunned.
A creature can remove the blinding effect of the spell by using an action on their turn to remove the powder from their eyes.
Inspired by combat skills from Darkest Dungeon, a dungeon crawler RPG by Red Hook Studios.

Posted Aug 12, 2020if a creature succeeds in the save, it is just blinded and uses its action to remove the power. This means at worst you prevent it from attacking for one turn. If it fails, it extends this one round by adding in any rounds it remains stunned. When it is freed from the stun, it still has to use its turn to free itself from the blinded condition. Although, I wonder if certain creatures would not care that much about being blinded, and just attack you anyways.
Anyways, looks like a great spell!
Well balanced, especially with it being a CON save.
