Scapegoat

(See also: Scapegoat (Athas))

When a wizard finishes casting this enchantment on a living being, all those within a 20-foot radius believe the being is to blame for all of their troubles. The affected creatures attack the enchanted being until the spell wears off, the being dies, or a dispel magic is cast.

Those within the area are affected if they have animal Intelligence or higher. Affected creatures are allowed a saving throw vs. spell each round to come to their senses. The caster is not affected by the enchantment.

The material components are a pinch of goat's hair and a stone that is thrown in the chosen target's direction.

Notes: Very rare spell. (Updated from Polyhedron Newszine.)
