-'''Moan''' is a cantrip that echoes the sorrowful cries of beings or individuals, emitting a protracted, sorrowful wail. This haunting sound pierces the listener's comfort, so that it disturbs sleep and assurance, especially within enclosed spaces or during nighttime.  Those who fail a [[Saving Throws|saving throw against magic]] are compelled to arise and move away from their present location, to a distance of at least 30 ft. from the sound's emanation.

-The moan is painful to hear and unsettling, particularly indoors and at night, when the listener's imagination turns to ideas of spirits and ghosts.
+== Cast upon Undead ==
+When used in the presence of undead, the moan causes unrest and discord amongst them.  Thus it can be used to force them into the open, as any undead who hear it will emerge from their tombs or other hiding places.  Moreover, as the sound is vaguely mesmerising, such creatures are given a -1 penalty against their initiative due to the sound.
