[QUOTE="Tar-Edhel, post: 61237, member: 688"] :D I love it! By the way, is there a way for the sleeping person to realize that he is being affected by a spell? I know you are supposed to know that you are the target of a spell but even when sleeping? What if the party has no spell casters able to cast or identify this spell... You wake up one morning, still shaking from that horrible dream. What tells you it isn't just a very bad dreams and that you shouldn't have added those mushroom to the rabbit stew you prepared last night? We've all had bad nights that made us perfect zombies the following day (well, I know I had). How do the character know that it is not simply "one of those nights". In fact, I am planning to use this on my players next time I DM. I am pretty sure they don't know the spell and even if they do, I am not sure I would let a character know right away that it's the Nightmare spell because the guy who plays him learned the entire Player's Handbbok by heart (I hate metagaming... when I DM :D ) I imagine that after a few nights, anyone would start suspecting something... But how many do you think is a few? [/QUOTE]
