Illusory pain wracks the target, dealing 2d4 mental damage and 1d4 persistent Mental damage. The target must attempt a Will save.  
**Critical Success** The target is unaffected.  
**Success** The target takes full initial damage but no [[Persistent Mental Damage]], and the spell ends immediately.  
**Failure** The target takes full initial and Persistent Damage, and the target is [[Sickened]] 1. If the target recovers from being Sickened, the Persistent Damage ends and the spell ends.  
**Critical Failure** As failure, but the target is [[Sickened]] 2.  

**Heightened (+1)** The damage increases by 2d4 and the Persistent Damage by 1d4.
