Groan produces various sounds that may be interpreted as a creature in pain. This gives the sense of a general groan, a person dying or a wounded figure that can't be seen.

Duration 1 round
Area of Effect animals within a 30 ft. circle; or
up to 1 creature
Casting Time 2 action points
Saving Throw negates
Level cantrip

While the cantrip cannot provide audible speech, an option allows a vague, incomprensibly sounding name being called out, over and over. This specific effect needn't be employed by the caster. The unpleasant sound of the groan can also entice animals of 1 to 2 intelligence to move 10 ft., or two combat hexes, from the point where the sound emanates after the cantrip is discharged.
