Causes the recipient to nod their head involuntarily, as if nodding in agreement or in greeting.
If a saving throw is made, there is no effect. Otherwise, the creature can be made to look and nod in any direction of the caster’s choosing—thus giving an order or a sign to any other creature or creatures, if that is the caster’s wish.
Moreover, the recipient will not know that he or she has made the nod, and will therefore make no effort to countermand or disapprove of the action once the cantrip’s duration has ended.
The cantrip is effective only against creatures with a low intelligence or more, that have heads to nod. There are no combat penalties against the nodding creature.
