[QUOTE="Shiroiken, post: 8388601, member: 6775477"] I've done quite a few things along these lines. Wolves are much scarier this way, since the party is still fighting the remaining ones. I've used fliers this way before too. I had a couple of harpies manage to charm 2 male PCs, and the rest of the party freaked out when they simply started flying off with them. I had some flying dinosaurs use grapple instead of their normal claw attack. The players were confused until I had them start to fly up with their catch, leaving the party to decide how to save the PC without killing them in the fall. Not really. The 1 minute limitation is still irrelevant, since the idea behind it is to cast it at the end of the battle (which rarely ever last 10 rounds). If the cleric prepared it and had the component, the paladin would almost certainly be alive. As for the spell slot, they'd be foolish in the extreme to not keep a 3rd level slot available. Worst case you cast Create Food and Water with the extra slot before the end of the long rest. [/QUOTE]
