This is an impressed spell. It is also cast focused on
a specific plant: a sunflower. If the plant is still living or recently (within
1 day) plucked, there is a +3 to the mage's casting roll. The mage must hold
the plant in the sunlight with its face directed away from his body and towards
the sun. When released, the spell causes a narrow beam of sunlight to shine
directly from the sunflower's face to the target. If the target creature is not
aligned with Death or Darkness, and has some sort of common ground with the
caster, it can be affected. The effect value of the spell, minus the creature's
Mind, is
used as a bonus modifier to any charm or persuasion attempts made
by the caster for the duration of the spell. The light effect of the spell also
lasts for the duration.
