You attempt to instantly convince one creature within range who can hear and see you not to act against your authority. The target must make a Charisma saving throw, which it makes with advantage if its current hit points are more than half its hit point maximum. If the target has an Intelligence of 5 or lower, it automatically succeeds.
On a failure, the target becomes indifferent to creatures of your choice that it was hostile toward for the duration. For the same duration, the speed of the target that failed the save is also reduced to 0, and every time it makes an attack roll against you or any ally you choose to include in this effect, it takes psychic damage equal to 1d4 + your spellcasting ability modifier.
A target that failed its saving throw can make the save again at the end of each of its next two turns. On a success, the spell ends. Once a target has failed its Charisma saving throw against this spell three times, the effects of this spell last the full duration.
If you or any ally you included in this effect attack the target or harm it with a spell, the spell ends.
At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 2nd level of higher, the psychic damage increases by 1d4 for each slot level above 1st. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 3rd level or higher, the duration increases to 1 hour.
