### Confusing Touch
{border-bottom:none}
___
*3rd-level enchantment*

**Casting Time:** :: 1 action
**Range:**        :: Self
**Components:**   :: V, S
**Duration:**     :: Concentration, up to 1 minute
**Classes:**      :: Bard, Druid, Sorcerer, Wizard

You channel bewildering magic through your hand. Until the spell ends, you can use a bonus action on each of your turns to touch a creature. The creature must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or be affected by this spell for the duration, as its mind is flooded with delusions. Once you target a creature, you can't target it again with this casting of the spell.

<!--
An affected target can't take reactions, and it can only use its movement to move in a random horizontal direction during each of its turns. To determine the direction, roll a d8 and assign a direction to each die face when it moves for the first time on each of its turns.

Additionally, the target can only use its action to make a melee or ranged attack against a randomly determined creature within 30 feet of it. If there is no creature that it can target, the creature uses its action to move a number of feet equal to half its speed instead.
-->

An affected target can't take reactions. At the start of each of its turns, it uses half its movement to move in a random direction. The creature must roll a d4 immediately afterwards to determine its behavior for that turn.
___
| d4  | Behavior          |
|:---:|:------------------|
| 1   | The creature uses the rest of its movement to continue moving in the same random direction. It doesn't take an action this turn. |
| 2-3 | The creature uses its action to make a melee or ranged attack against a randomly determined creature within 30 feet of it. |
| 4   | The creature takes the Dodge action and uses the rest of its movement to move away from the nearest creature it can see of its choice. |
___

At the end of each of its turns, an affected target can make another Wisdom saving throw. If it succeeds, the spell ends for that target.
