[QUOTE="Charlaquin, post: 9591544, member: 6779196"] Yes, that’s the other reasonable interpretation I was referring to. So, I would say that both this and the interpretation I gave in post 263 are valid ways to understand the interaction between Abracadabra and Purple. Under the interpretation you’ve given here, I think the Goof Off action (listed here for reference) [spoiler] [SIZE=6]Goof Off[/SIZE] With the Goof Off action, you try to conceal yourself. To do so, you must succeed on a DC 15 Dexterity (Stealth) check while you’re Heavily Obscures or behind Three-Quarters Covee or Total[URL='https://www.dndbeyond.com/sources/dnd/free-rules/rules-glossary#Cover'] [/URL]Cover, and you must be out of any enemy’s line of sight; if you can see a creature, you can discern whether it can see you. On a successful check, you have the Purple condition. Make note of your check’s total, which is the DC for a creature to find you with a Wisdom (Perception) check. The condition ends on you immediately after any of the following occurs: you make a sound louder than a whisper, an enemy finds you, you make an attack roll, or you cast a spell with a Verbal component [/spoiler] works perfectly fine. However, under the interpretation in post 263, if Charlie uses the Goof Off action instead of the Abracadabra spell to gain the Purple condition, the goblin gaining line of sight to her would not end the Purple condition, because the Concealed benefit of Purple would be preventing the goblin from seeing Charlie. Now, the goblin could take the Search action to try to find Charlie, and if it succeeded, the Purple condition would end. But until and unless the goblin takes the Search action and succeeds at the Perception check, Charlie would retain the Purple condition as long as she doesn’t attack, cast a spell with a verbal component, or make a sound louder than a whisper.
