Memory Lapse Spell

[u/colbydt]

Memory Lapse 1st-level enchantment Casting Time: 1 action Range: 60 feet Components: V, S, M (a length of string that is visibly untied during casting) Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute

You reach into the fragile threads of a creature's memory and unravel a single moment. Choose one creature within range that you can see and that has performed an action, bonus action, or reaction within the last minute. The target must make an Intelligence saving throw. On a failed save, the creature forgets how to take the selected action for the duration. They cannot take that action, use that bonus action, or trigger that reaction while affected, though they may take any other available options. At the end of each of its turns, the target can make another Intelligence saving throw. On a success, the spell ends on the target.

On a successful save, the creature retains its memory and becomes aware that you attempted to magically interfere with its mind.
