Word of Control

5th-level, Enchantment

• Casting time: 1 Bonus Action
• Range: 30 feet
• Components: V
• Duration: 1 round

You recite a word of authority to a creature you can see within range, which must make a Wisdom saving throw or have the Charmed condition until the end of your next turn. A creature targeted by this spell within the last 24 hours automatically succeeds on its saving throw against it.

While Charmed, the target doesn’t move or act unless verbally commanded by you to do so. You can issue commands to the target (no action required), such as “Attack that creature,” “Move over there,” or “Fetch that object.” The target does its best to obey on its turn.

Classes: Bard; Martyr (Burden of Truth); Martyr
