Mass Suggestion in Dungeons & Dragons 5e

Player's Handbook (2024) - Modified

Mass Suggestion

6-level Enchantment

Casting Time: 1 action
Range/Area: 60 ft.
Components: V, M
Materials: a snake's tongue and a bit of honeycomb
Duration: 24 hours

You suggest a course of activity—described in no more than 25 words—to twelve or fewer creatures you can see within range that can hear and understand you. The suggestion must sound achievable and not involve anything that would obviously deal damage to any of the targets or their allies. For example, you could say, “Walk to the village down that road, and help the villagers there harvest crops until sunset.” Or you could say, “Now is not the time for violence. Drop your weapons, and dance! Stop in an hour.”

Each target must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or have the charmed condition for the duration or until you or your allies deal damage to the target. Each Charmed target pursues the suggestion to the best of its ability. The suggested activity can continue for the entire duration, but if the suggested activity can be completed in a shorter time, the spell ends for a target upon completing it.

You can also specify conditions that will trigger a special activity during the duration. For example, you might suggest that a group of soldiers give all their money to the first beggar they meet. If the condition isn't met before the spell ends, the activity isn't performed.

At higher levels:

The duration is longer with a spell slot of level 7 (10 days), 8 (30 days), or 9 (366 days).

Available for: Bard, Sorcerer, Warlock, Wizard
