Dirty (cantrip)
Dirty is a cantrip that soils surfaces, including cloth, within its area of effect. The affected area is covered in a grimy mixture of soil, animal grease and dust, leaving it streaked and stained with filth.

Removing this grime through ordinary means requires at least two hours of cleaning, particularly if fine fabrics, delicate materials or costly garments are affected, as the filth settles deep into the fibers and crevices of the surface.
Visually, the cantrip imposes a -1 modifier to the character’s overall charisma when making an ability check. This penalty remains until the character properly bathes — either in hot water or in cold water with soap, as mere rinsing is not enough to remove the filth.
If a soiled character attempts to enter places where appearance is of importance, such as a political, judicial or religious edifice, they will be met with resistance. Guards or attendants will seek to compel the filthy individual to leave, viewing their presence as offensive or disruptive to the dignity of the establishment.
