Soothe the Beast (Wizard Spell)

Soothe the beast affects only domesticated animals or those already friendly toward the caster, of common, giant, or minimal variety. Once cast, the spell makes the animal feel con­tent, well fed, calm, and ready for sleep. These feelings overcome any adversity due to food shortage, inhospitable climate or environment, frightening situations, and so on.
However, while the creature may feel well fed, this spell does not replace the need for food. Even under this enchantment, an animal is subject to starvation and its physical effects. Soothe the beast only allows the animal to remain blissfully unaware of the condition.
Notes: Common in the Mystara setting; oth­erwise, uncommon for Nature mages, song mages, and bards, and very rare for others.
