The creature must attempt a DC 38 Will save.
**Critical Success** The target is unaffected and temporarily immune to all Enticing Invitations for 24 hours.
**Success** The target must spend 1 action on its next turn dancing in place.
**Failure** The target becomes [drained 1](/Conditions.aspx?ID=10). It is also [fascinated](/Conditions.aspx?ID=14) by the alapolo for 1 minute and can't attack the alapolo as long as it's fascinated. While fascinated, the target must spend 2 actions on each of its turns dancing in place.

Any creatures fascinated by the alapolo due to its Enticing Invitation are freed from their fascination when the alapolo uses this ability, jarred by the graceless stomping. Shadow Dancers Even fey avoid alapolos, for their dancing is both captivating and exhausting. When a potential dance partner resists their swaying invitations to dance, an alapolo becomes sulky and usually stomps upon the refuser's shadow, giving it a supernatural weight. Avoiding both the dance and the stomp requires incredible diplomacy.
