Jordan locks eyes with his target, and holds their gaze. Both parties’ eyes strangely dilate for a moment as if seeing something only the two of them can see. Then, if successful the target carries out the singular sentence he broadcast into their brain. For the target, what this looks like is when they gaze into Jordan’s eyes, they seem to fall into them, deeply, until all they see before them is a single sentence, and they have a deep primal fear of what will happen if they do not carry it out.
Though it is very difficult to perceive as it is a beam of light, (thus moving at light speed), the way the gift works physically are that Jordan’s alien eyes beam out an encoded signal that is received through the target’s eyes, sending a single message to their brain. If Jordan’s eyes are destroyed, he will lose access to this power. This power would also be ineffective on things that cannot visually perceive light.
