Description: | The character can control the actions of any humanoid that is
Medium-size or smaller. The character establishes a telepathic
link with the subjects mind. If a common language is
shared, the character can generally force the subject to perform
as the character desires, within the limits of his abilities. If
no common language is shared, the character can communicate only
basic commands, such as "Come here," "Go
there," "Fight," and "Stand still." the
character knows what the subject is experiencing, but the
character does not receive direct sensory input from him.
Subjects resist this control, and those forced to take actions
against their nature receive a new saving throw with a bonus of
+1 to +4, depending on the type of action required. Obviously
self-destructive orders are not carried out. Once control is
established, the range at which it can be exercised is unlimited,
as long as the character and the subject are on the same plane.
The character need not see the subject to control it.
Protection from evil or a similar spell can prevent the
character from exercising control or using the telepathic link
while the subject is so warded, but it does not prevent the
establishment of domination or dispel it.
