Kāldane's Insomnia
(Enchantment/Charm)
Reversible

Range:  40 yards
Components:  V, S, M
Duration:  1 day per level
Casting Time:  4
Area of Effect:  One person
Saving Throw:  Negates

This spell makes it impossible for the person affected to fall asleep during the duration. A saving throw is allowed at -5, although for every two levels of the victim this penalty is decreased by 1 (two Hit Dice creatures save at -4, four Hit Dice creatures save at -3, etc.). Even elves are affected by this spell. The only way to stop the effects is by the use of a remove curse cast by someone of equal or higher level than the wizard who cast the original spell, or some more powerful spell (such as limited wish or wish). The material component is a handful of rose thorns.
The reverse of the spell, Kāldane's somnolence, causes the victim to fall asleep for the set amount of time. The saving throw for this spell, however, is at +1 for every two levels of the victim. The victim need not be fed while the spell is in effect, as his metabolism is considerably lowered. Remove curse will dispel the effects. The material component is a handful of belladonna leaves.
