{{#set:Summary=Target cowers [[SRD:Prone|prone]] for a round.}}
Targets affected by this essence must make a [[SRD:Saving_Throw#Will|will save]]. Each affected target that fails a its Will save ([[SRD:DC|DC]] 14 + [[SRD:Charisma|charisma]] bonus) must immediately start cowering for one round. While cowering, the afflicted falls is considered [[SRD:Prone|prone]], and may only take a partial action, though may not purposely trigger any ability for any offensive, defensive or maneuverability reasons. This is a [[SRD:Mind-Affecting Effect|mind-affecting effect]]. If already [[SRD:Frightened|frightened]] or [[SRD:Panicked|panicked]], this invocation only makes the target prone.
