Meshelboyd
Meshelboyd is a second level enchantment with a range of sixty feet, a duration of one minute, and does not require concentration to maintain.
The spell works much like hypnosis. It captures the attention of the target, making them fascinated with the castor. The person is so enthralled that they are paralyzed and speechless, with no desire other than to gaze upon the one enchanting them. Once the spell is broken, the target will feel like they have awoken from a daydream with no long-term memory of the event.
Meshelboyd can only be cast while the target and castor are making eye contact. But, once active, the castor can move up to the maximum distance without eye contact and still hold the spell. The spell may also be cast via a clear reflection.
This spell has been a favorite of thieves since it’s discovery in 1710 at the Istanbul Academy of Magic. While enchanted, a victim will be robbed and left with only a hazy recollection of the event. The act became so rampant that people began to avoid eye contact all together to avoid being bedazzled. The culture was put at ease in 1780 with the invention of the Alachuan. The Alachuan is a charm worn around the neck that is designed to reflect the effects of meshelboyd back to its origin. In practice, it will leave the castor enchanted by the Alachuan for one minute, allowing the target to escape and inform authorities.
