Description
Nerissa cannot speak, but she can sing. Her songs don't have words, but when they're sung to the right person, they seem to understand. So beautiful are her songs to the right listener. So compelling.
System
Exert your Mind, spend an Action issuing your Suggestion to an Animate target within 20 feet, and roll Charisma + Performance ( dice) Difficulty 6. You must communicate your command. The target may resist by rolling Mind, Difficulty 6 as a Free Action. If you succeed, the target will follow your command for Outcome in minutes.
Your command may be no more complex than Conditional commands (If X, then Y). Your command cannot be obviously self-endangering, destructive, or in violation of the target's Limits.

Mutation - pure black eyes that leak black tears occasionally
-
Mage
(Activating this Effect requires two consecutive Actions of Concentration. It involves intricate use of the body and voice. If interrupted during activation, the Effect fails. It is obvious you are preparing to activate an Effect during casting.)
