This spell produces inconsolable, incapacitating weeping in the subject. Its affect on its target varies depending on the target's alignment:
- A target whose alignment has a good component (NG, LG, CG) reexperiences all of its most painful , heartbreaking moments in an instant. The target falls first to its knees, wracked with sobs, then curls into a fetal position, unable to take any action but weeping. The target is absolutely inconsolable, and cannot even eat or drink. The target takes one point of exhaustion when the spell ends.
- A target whose alignment has an evil component (NE, LE, CE) experiences all of the pain and sorrow it has CAUSED in an instant. The target is affected as above, but at the end of the spell's duration, the target must make a second saving throw. Failure permanently changes the target's alignment to the opposite of what it was (LE becomes LG, for example), and instills in the target a desire to spend its life making amends for all the evil it has done.
Success instills the target with a horrific desire for vengeance against the caster of the spell.
- A target whose alignment is true neutral is affected in either of the above ways, at the desire of the caster.
