Spell

Suggestion

Type: Bribery spells
Cost (wounds): 1
Effect: -2 to the bribe roll.

Cost is the wounds the caster pays. Type: W combat, O any time, N negotiation, V bribery, S special.

How it plays

Suggestion takes 2 off the number rolled for a bribe, for a cost of 1. If the table gives a digit of 2, that lifts the chance of the bribe being accepted from one in three to two in three. The gold is lost whether the bribe works or not, so cast it first.

Costs 1 wound of the caster's own strength, and the spell can't be cast if that would kill the caster.
Cast during a bribery attempt (rule 10.7).

Chance the bribe is accepted, by the digit read from the bribery table
Table digit	0	1	2	3	4
Without the spell	0%	17%	33%	50%	67%
With the spell	33%	50%	67%	83%	100%

Figures come straight from the rulebook tables and rules, before any magic items or bonuses.
