Distract foes with a nonsense speech. While active, a round must be spent saying something inane, confusing, or criminally false. Enemies will suffer a -1, plus an additional -1 per 4 HD, morale penalty to attack and damage rolls. If a creature fails the Will save, they will also become stunned for 1 round and stifled for another 2. Each round the speech must continue or the effect ends.

VTT Description Macro:
@{character_name} spins up quite an impromptu speech of dubious merit. Each round @{character_name} must continue their speech or the effect will end. Creatures that can hear it suffer a -[[1+floor(@{hd}/4)]] morale penalty to attack and damage rolls. If a creature fails their save, they become [_stunned_](https://tabletopdefined.com/Glossary/conditions/#stunned) for 1 round and [_stifled_](https://tabletopdefined.com/Glossary/conditions/#stifle) for another two.
