When you weave a performance into a basic spell, choose an ally and an effect:
Heal 1d8 damage
+1d4 forward to damage
Their mind is shaken clear of one enchantment
The next time someone successfully assists the target with aid, they get +2 instead of +1
Then roll+CHA.
✴ On a 10+, the ally gets the selected effect.
✴ On a 7-9, your spell still works, but you draw unwanted attention or your magic reverberates to other targets affecting them as well, GM’s choice.
