Notes

• The in-game spell description states that this spell lasts one round per level, but it actually lasts one round per two (caster) levels.
• When extended, this spell lasts 1 round per caster level, which is marginally more than twice the non-extended version at odd caster levels.
• Unlike most charm spells this spell can charm player characters and their associates.
• The term "non-allied" may be misleading. Depending on PvP settings, the spell can affect members of the caster's party in the area of effect and the caster, too.
• This spell only affects humanoids, even though its description says "creatures".
• Contrary to the in-game description, the limit on hit dice is one less than twice the caster level.
• Targets who resist the spell or make their saves still count against the HD limit.
• Merchants under the influence of this spell will suffer a -15 penalty to their opposed appraise check (if they make one) when opening their store. This usually means that prices are adjusted 15% (of the item's value) in the PC's favor.
