 '''Yawn''' is a cantrip that compels the targeted creature to involuntarily open its [[Jaws (attack)|jaws]] and stretch these parts three times, over the space of 1 [[Combat Round|round]] (12 seconds).  Creatures are allowed a saving throw; if this fails, the creature is unable to make any [[Attacking in Combat|attacks]] during the current round, nor the subsequent round thereafter.

 For example, a [[Lion|lion]] affected by the cantrip would be forced to abstain from attacking entirely in the first round while it stood there yawning; and then it would be able to attack or defend itself with only its two [[Claw (attack)|claws]] the round thereafter.

+There is no relationship between the yawn and the desire for the creature to [[Sleep (spell)|sleep]]; creatures affected by the cantrip aren't made sleepy, and aren't drowsy in any sense afterwards.
-The cantrip will also cause creatures with mouths who [[Blood Drain|drain blood]] or otherwise burrow into the body, such as bloodworms, leeches and rot grub, to open their jaws and thus be more easily removed.
+The cantrip has the additional value of detaching creatures that attack using the jaws to crush victims, or drain their blood.  As the jaws widen, any creatures that are held prisoner are free to escape — or, if [[Stun Lock|stunned]], can be pulled free by others.
-The cantrip is effective only against creatures with mouths.
