| Converts a small portion of the brain matter of those around you into alcohol, attempting to confuse all intelligent creatures within view (although poison-resistant creatures may resist the effects). The caster will experience vertigo briefly if they successfully make contact with other minds. It is frequently used as an icebreaker at wizard parties. |
Alistair's Intoxication is a level 5 Transmutation/Poison spell which attempts to confuse all monsters in your line of sight, but may inflict vertigo on you.
The monsters affected must:
- be Natural;
- have Human intelligence; and
- not have clarity or poison immunity.
Monsters with rPois have a 2/3rds chance to resist, and monsters with poison immunity always resist.
The chance of confusing each monster is (40+spell power/3)%, and the chance of giving yourself vertigo is (60-spell power/3)%. At maximum power (capped at 100), monsters will be affected 73% of the time, and you will get vertigo 27% of the time.
Poison resistance offers no benefit to players when casting this spell.
