D&D Context[]
- Suggestion is a 3rd level spell which allows the caster to suggest a course of action to the subject, who must comply if they fail their Will saving throw. As it does not have a somatic component, Vaarsuvius can cast it despite having a strength score of 0 from the poison.
- Disarming an opponent with a two-handed weapon like Gannji's military fork can be done at a +4 advantage, but against non-melee weapons like Haley's bow, it is at -4, so the attempt is done on an even footing between Haley and Gannji.
- Half-dragons like Enor have a breath weapon special attack. As his dragon half is of the blue dragon variety, his breath weapon is lightning.
Trivia[]
- The title refers to Enor's breath weapon attack, as above, which Vaarsuvius' did not account for when composing the suggestion.
