Which is perfectly within your right, I mean - as DM, I do that sort of thing all the time! Just make sure to let your players know before the campaign starts.From a mechanical design standpoint, Hex is all over the place. As far as I can tell, it's the only spell that they intend for you to concentrate on all the way through a short rest. I mean, it lasts eight hours, which is the declared length of an adventuring day, and they expect you to take two short rests during that time. It definitely has the feeling of being designed by a committee, tweaking it back and forth while they were still working on figuring out how short rests and up-ranking spells were supposed to work.</blockquote>
