Witch's Glamor - Witch

This spell is usually cast by ugly, evil witches in combination with one of the seduction spells. The witch's glamor creates a ravishing beauty directly opposite the witch's true appearance. Any negative Charisma-based reaction adjustment becomes positive; thus, a hag with a Charisma of 4 (adjustment -5) has an effective Charisma of 17 while under the influence of this spell. This would change a +5 saving throw bonus against a seduction spell to a -5 penalty.

The glamor lasts 5 rounds per level unless cast while a seduction spell is operating. In this case, it ends with the seduction spell. This occurs even if the seduction spell is broken prematurely. Also, the glamor ends instantly as soon as the witch attacks in any manner, except with an enchantment/charm spell.

When the spell ends, any creature charmed by the witch must make an immediate saving throw vs. spell as soon as it sees her true features, with a penalty equal to her Charisma reaction adjustment. Failure means the creature stops in horror and loses its next initiative roll (going last in the round).

Notes: Restricted to witches, uncommon.
