Captivating Art[edit]

When you complete the ritual, it becomes almost impossible to ignore the art that you are affecting.

Level: 5 Component Cost: 4,000 gp plus focus
Category: Warding Market Price: 17,000 gp
Time: 1 hour Key Skill: Arcana or Religion
Duration: 6 hours

You cause one physical work of art, such a book, painting, sculpture, etc. to captivate creatures that approach it. Any creature that is lower level than you that sees the work of art for the first time since this ritual was cast upon it and who comes within 6 squares of the art must make a saving throw or become captivated by it. The exact effects of the captivation depend on your Arcana or Religion check.

Any attack on a captivated creature ends the captivation immediately.
