Quick question, gang.

I have a character with an allergy. Would exposure to it be
distracting enough to keep them from using an exclusive spell?

Thanks.

It all depends on the severity of the allergy..If it is sever..Your
PC will be able to think of little else..if it is mild..Null persp..

I'd say it doesn't -- being subject to an allergy isn't a magical activity
like banishing a spirit or casting a spell, and that's what this
exclusivity is supposed to be: the ability to only cast one spell at a
time. I'd give the character the normal modifier fo being subject to an
allergy, and let him/her cast the spell with that.
