Effect A piping, reddish smoke pours from the censer in a 20-foot area. You choose whether the smoke causes the target's blood to turn extremely hot or transmutes to poison; the smoke deals your choice of fire or poison damage. Each living creature that's in the area or enters it attempts a DC 34 fortitude saving throw, then becomes temporarily immune for 1 hour.


Critical Success The creature is unaffected.

Success The creature breathes in a small amount of the poisonous smoke and takes 2d6 persistent fire or 2d6 persistent poison damage.

Failure The creature gulps down a lungful of the smoke, taking 4d6 persistent fire or 4d6 persistent poison damage and becoming Enfeebled 2 until the persistent damage ends.

Critical Failure The creature inhales a large amount of the smoke, taking 6d6 persistent fire or 6d6 persistent poison damage and becoming Enfeebled 3 until the persistent damage ends.
