This spell thins the oxygen in the area, causing creatures caught therein to suffer the effects of extreme altitude sickness.
Subjects failing their saves take 1 point of damage to all ability scores because of altitude sickness (see page 90 of the Dungeon Masters Guide).

Creatures that do not breathe are immune to the effects of the spell.
