The inexorable power of sleep fills the area of effect when you speak this powerful word. The spell selects targets one at a time, beginning with the lowest hit points first and adding another target until it reaches its limit. If a new target creature would take the total hit points over 80, that target is unaffected. Targets of the word are immediately knocked unconscious as per the sleep spell.

Individual creatures with more than 40 hit points are only slept for 1d4 rounds. Creatures with 20 to 39 hit points are asleep for one minute, and weaker creatures are endered unconscious until awakened or eight hours pass.
