Although the Sea of Chaos does have its shores, its waters are endless. Its shores are an infinity of miles away from each other and no bridges can be built across them. A fae evoking this charm glows bright, soft green and shouts a word or phrase in an unknown language. Anyone who would ordinarily hear a loud shout hears this word in her mind, despite any anti-noise effects or magics, and (without knowing) it suffers from this charm’s effects. Victims of this charm speak their own completely individual language for a number of hours equal to the fae’s essence. They are their own islands. A group of characters who hear this charm collectively cannot understand a word they say to each other. They also do not understand one another’s body language; one character may think a nodding gesture means “no”; another may think a waving “come here” sign means “I had sex with your loose sister.” This charm should have an appropriate effect on combat; players cannot realistically cooperate. It should seriously affect the outcome of large-scale battles, especially involving mortals who depend on tactics.
