I just recast until it succeeds and one-turn kills the victim with the guaranteed critical hits. What did they think I'm trying to do to them with "Hold person"?

Hunh. I thought the salient mechanic meta was: sneak attack per character until all targets are neutralized and combat never initiates as all possible adversaries are dead before it could trigger... 🤷🏼‍♂️
