Amaunator's Uncertainty (Priest Spell)

Creatures affected by this spell pause in uncertainty before executing their intended actions. In a combat situation, this equates to an initiative penalty equal to one-third t h e spellcaster's level (rounded down). This reaction penalty begins the round after the spell is cast. In a noncombative situation, the victim pauses one-third of a round (about 20 seconds) per level of the caster before executing an action.
The spell affects 2d4 plus one-half the caster's level in Hit Dice or levels of creatures within the area of effect. All possible victims are allowed a saving throw vs. spell to completely negate the effects. If affected victims leave the area of effect, they still suffer the spell's effects until the spell expires.
The material component of the spell is a fragment of a turtle's shell.
Notes: Granted by the sun god Amaunator of the Forgotten Realms setting.
