Charmed (...)
You create a twisting pattern of colors in a 30-foot Cube within range. The pattern appears for a moment and vanishes. Each creature in the area who can see the pattern must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or have the Charmed condition for the duration. While Charmed, the creature has the Incapacitated condition and a Speed of 0.
The spell ends for an affected creature if it takes any damage or if someone else uses an action to shake the creature out of its stupor.

Posted Apr 7, 2025I'm surprised how few comments there are.
Considering it wasn't nerfed at all.

Posted Jun 2, 2025If you choose an area that includes allies, then yes, it affects them.
If you're unwise enough to include yourself in the area of effect, then it affects you too. Though, if you fail the saving throw, you're Incapacitated, and that means you can't concentrate on the spell anymore, so the spell would immediately end, and then you (and everyone else) wouldn't be affected anymore. Bit of a waste of a spell slot.
