Gibberish Curse
2nd-level illusion (Bard,Cleric,Druid,Sorcerer,Warlock)
- Casting Time: 1 action
- Range: 30 feet
- Components: V
- Duration: Instantaneous
Sowing the chaos of Pandemonium, you scramble your speech and the speech of others. Choose one creature within range that can hear you. The target must roll a Wisdom saving throw, suffering 2d10 psychic damage on a failed save or half as much on success. If the creature fails its save, both you and the creature lose the power of speech until the start of your next turn. For that duration, neither of you can speak any language (though you can understand others as you would normally), and neither of you can cast any spell that requires verbal components, nor use any spell or other effect that requires others to be able to hear you.
At Higher Levels. If you cast this spell using a spell slot of 3rd level or higher, the psychic damage inflicted increases by an additional 1d10 for every spell level above 2nd.
