Alchemy description: Creatures and people up to level <mag> flee from combat for <dur> seconds.
Enchanting description: Creatures and people up to level <mag> flee from combat for <dur> seconds.
Fear (a.k.a. Rout or Hysteria) decreases the confidence of the targets, causing them to flee from battle. The Fear effect can have several uses: evening the odds if you are outnumbered and/or cornered in a tough fight, making an enemy flee so you can either run away or heal, or making a tough enemy flee so you can deal with the weaker ones first. You can also use it on singular enemies in enclosed spaces (such as ruins or caves) so you can attack them without reprisal, though you will have to chase them as they continue to flee from you. If you fight and injure an enemy under this effect, they will still flee rather than canceling its effects and turning to fight.

Although Fear is considered a negative effect and will result in a poison, it does not benefit from the Poisoner perk while you are practicing Alchemy. The fear effect does nothing to the player.
