Howling AgonySource Ultimate Magic pg. 223 School necromancy [death, pain]; Level arcanist 3, bloodrager 3, inquisitor 2, mesmerist 2, psychic 2, sorcerer 3, spiritualist 3, witch 3, wizard 3CastingCasting Time 1 standard action Components V, S, M (a needle and a dried eyeball)EffectRange close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels) Target one living creature/level, no two of which can be more than 30 ft. apart Duration 1 round/level Saving Throw Fortitude negates; Spell Resistance yesDescriptionYou send wracking pains through the targets’ bodies. Because of the pain, affected creatures take a –2 penalty to AC, attacks, melee damage rolls, and Reflex saving throws, and must succeed at a concentration check (DC equal to the DC of this spell) to cast spells. However, if an affected creature spends a move action screaming as loudly as possible, it can act without any other penalties for the remainder of its turn. “Screaming,” for the purposes of this spell, includes any vocalization of pain or its telepathic equivalent; creatures that cannot scream (such as creatures without the natural ability to communicate or vocalize) suffer the full effect of the spell.
