the area of your breath weapon (typically to prevent it from
affecting allies). These unaffected squares need not be adjacent
to one another.
You can choose to apply any one other breath effect that
you know to the same breath weapon.
SICKENING BREATH
Minimum Level: 2nd
Rather than dealing damage, your breath weapon sickens
all creatures in its area for 2 rounds. A successful Fortitude
save reduces the duration to 1 round.
You can apply this breath effect only to a cone-shaped
breath weapon.
SLEEP BREATH
Minimum Level: 10th
Rather than dealing damage, your breath weapon puts all
living creatures in its area to sleep for 1 round. Any creature
that makes a successful Will save is instead exhausted for 1
round. Any creature whose Hit Dice exceeds your class level
is unaffected by this breath weapon.
You can apply this breath effect only to a cone-shaped
breath weapon.
SLOW BREATH
Minimum Level: 5th
Rather than dealing damage, your breath weapon slows
all creatures in its area for 2 rounds. A successful Fortitude
save reduces the duration to 1 round. A slowed creature can
take a single move action or standard action each turn, but
not both (nor can it take full-round actions). Additionally, it
takes a –1 penalty to its Armor Class and on its attack rolls and
Reflex saves. A slowed creature moves at half its normal speed
(round down to the next 5-foot increment), which affects the
creature’s jumping distance as normal for decreased speed.
Multiple uses of this breath effect on the same creature
don’t stack; use only the longer duration. Slow Breath suppresses
any haste effect on creatures in its area for the duration
of the slow effect.
You can apply this breath effect only to a cone-shaped
breath weapon.
THUNDER BREATH
Minimum Level: 10th
Your breath weapon deals sonic damage instead of fire
damage. A successful Fortitude save halves the damage. You
can apply this breath effect only to a cone-shaped breath
weapon.
WEAKENING BREATH
Minimum Level: 5th
Rather than dealing damage, your breath weapon imposes
a –6 penalty to the Strength scores of all creatures in the area
for 4 rounds. A successful Fortitude save reduces the duration
to 2 rounds.
You can apply this breath effect only to a cone-shaped
breath weapon.
DRACONIC INVOCATIONS
The invocations available to dragonfire adepts (see page

saving throw to resist the invocation, Concentration checks
