This spell is useful for clearing up the awkward tension one gets when interacting with someone new, and opens up the flow of conversation, paving the way to a meaningful and fulfilling relationship.
This spell can only target a creature that can hear and understand you. Upon casting, the target must make a charisma saving throw.. On a success, nothing happens and the spell is wasted. On a failure, the caster can forcibly drag information from their mind. For the duration, the caster can use their action to ask the target a question, and the target must use their turn, and as many subsequent turns as it takes, to fully answer the question, or take 1d4 psychic damage per round until the spell ends. The target takes 1d4 psychic damage if they:
- Choose to take a different action and therefore refuse to answer the question.
- Lie in their answer.
- Attempt to be overly ambiguous and therefore avoid fully answering the question.
This spell cannot be used to force the target to make a certain action. This spell applies only to the answering of the question.
The caster can ask as many questions as they can fit into the duration of the spell, but it takes an action to do so as the words you speak are laced with magic.
If the target finishes answering a question and the caster does not ask another question at their most immediate opportunity, the spell ends. If the target does not know the answer to the question, answering as such functions as if the target had answered truthfully, and the spell will end if the caster does not ask another question at their most immediate opportunity.
