Spell Effects & Mechanics

  • This spell causes the target character to drop everything in-game they are holding in a specified hand. The target must let go completely, allowing all the items in that hand to fall to the ground. The caster of the Fumble must specify which hand is affected with an out-of-game comment when the spell packet hits the target; e.g., “I Command You to Fumble… Right Hand”.
  • If an item is attached to a character by some means other than a physical grip, then that item is not dropped; for example, a sword that is glued to a character’s hand with a Paste of Stickiness would stay in the character’s hand even though the character releases their grip. The Disarm skill cannot be used as a Retain against the Fumble spell.
  • If you are the target of a Fumble spell, then after you have let go of everything you are holding in one hand, you may then bend down and pick it up. You may not bend down, let your hand relax, then immediately grab an item and straighten up. You must let everything in your hand drop, and then bend down to pick it up.
