Memetic Intrusion

1st-level enchantment

Casting Time:1 Action

Range:30 feet

Components:V, S, M (a bottled laugh)

Duration:1 hour

You attempt to place a small idea into another creature’s mind that will take some space at the forefront of their thoughts for the duration. The creature must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or have the idea, nothing more than a simple image possibly bound to 10 or less words, become a gnawing thought. They may mull over the idea out loud, share the thought with others, investigate the idea, or forcibly ignore its distracting nature. Once a creature has been exposed to one memetic thought they cannot be affected by the same idea, though variations of the original will still work. If a creature shares the idea with another creature, the new creature must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw against your spell save DC or be infected with the thought for the remaining duration of the spell. Newly infected creatures can spread the spell as well, though all effected lose interest in the idea once the spell ends.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 2nd level or higher, the duration doubles for each spell slot above 1st, to a maximum of 1 week.
