This intriguing spell creates a charm that subtly modifies its holder's emotional aura – making him seem strangely less threatening to anyone who perceives him. Although this makes it more difficult for the target to impose his personality on others through skills such as Intimidation or Social Skills: Leadership, it also makes observers pay him less mind – effectively aiding any attempts at Stealth. Most useful of all however is the fact that animals will tend to react very positively to the perceived harmlessness of the target – granting him a significant bonus to Farming & Herding: Animal Handling checks.
