You cast hold person on an echo knight with manifestation out. The knight fails his save. What happens to the echo, and what are its options? My ruling is if the echo is out before you’re held it can do things freely, but you can’t manifest it while held. I want to make sure I didn’t miss anything and what the hive mind thinks.
You make your attack from your space or the echo’s space rather than the echo specifically attacking on its own. This is because you specifically have to take an action to attack, and Hold Person prevents you from taking actions. So RAW, if you are in a position where you cannot attack (such as by having Hold Person cast on you), you also can’t attack through your echo.
Thank you. I missed the incapacitation in paralysis.
