By making mocking gestures toward one creature within

range that can see you, you leave the creature incapable of

performing at its best. If the target fails on an Intelligence

saving throw, roll a d4 and refer to the following table to

determine what the target does on its turn. An affected

target repeats the saving throw at the end of each of its

turns, ending the effect on itself on a success or applying

the result of another roll on the table on a failure.

2Target stands transfixed and blinking, takes no action.
