[QUOTE="LordEntrails, post: 8491664, member: 6804070"] Yea sure. But why? And what I mean is why create a spell for something that is so special and one off that unless a campaign is designed specifically for this spell, it is never going to be used by the PCs. (How many parties are going to have 6 spell casting PCs with this on their spell list? How many of those are then going to need this?) And if it's not going to be used by the PCs, then the only rule that the DM needs to apply this effect is the Rule of Cool. There is no need to detail this out as a spell, rather just give it to the appropriate NPC as an action much like is done with a hag coven. This is story element, just tell the story and set the conditions for the party to overcome it and move on with the fun. [/QUOTE]
