The caster can mentally give commands as a Simple Action and the target is compelled to obey. The caster seizes control of the target’s mind, directing everything the target does. A +2 distraction penalty applies even if the test succeeds. If the target tries to go against the emotion (trying to shoot a “loved” target), he must make a Willpower Test against the spell’s Force in order to act. If doing something not relevant to the emotion (trying to drive while laughing hysterically), a distraction applies (+2 to all target numbers). Generally speaking, a target doing something in keeping with the emotion (fighting while filled with anger or hate), suffers no penalty. The target believes the emotion wholeheartedly, but not mindlessly. The target feels an overwhelming emotion chosen by the spellcaster, such as love, hate, sorrow and so on. The victim uses any skills or abilities at the caster’s orders, but with +4 to all target numbers because of the victim’s resistance to the caster’s commands. The victim’s consciousness is unaffected, but the caster controls the victim’s body. The caster controls the physical actions of a target like a puppeteer pulling strings.
