Smith's Inhalation [Reaction] (divine, enchantment, incapacitation, mental, visual)

Critical Success The creature is unaffected.

Success The creature feels pain across its body, as if the skull's inhalation were pulling the skin from its bones. The creature becomes sickened 1 and takes 8d6 mental damage.

Failure The creature is convinced that the skull just “breathed in” its skin, and it takes 16d6 mental damage. The overwhelming pain leaves the creature slowed 1 for 1 round as well.
