| This spell causes fear in those near to the caster. |
Cause Fear is a level 4 Hexes spell which attempts to panic all monsters in your line of sight, causing them to run away from your current position. It only affects natural, non-berserk monsters, and it must overcome its victim's magic resistance.
A similar effect can be attained through use of a scroll of fear or the Banshee card.
