Bill pulls a seed out of a seed packet and forcefully shoves it down a creature's throat. The creature becomes unnaturally calm, its eyes glazing over as the seed sprouts out of its skin and Bill takes control of its mind. The visuals of the blooming plant life are dependant on the type of seed Bill uses, in most cases it will be a crop commonly found on farms (i.e. corn, carrots, potatoes, etc.). The physical changes made to the creature are permanent and will persist after Bill's period of command over the creature has expired.
Bill accidentally discovered this power while feeding his chickens the morning after the Graveyard Shift. Where this gift came from, Bill does not know. All he knows is that the first chicken he fed that day was consumed by overgrowth, and obeyed his every command in a zombie-like trance. Where a normal man would run away screaming, Bill smiled, content with the power that he had been gifted.

For the next day, you may issue specific commands to your target which they will be compelled to follow.
Your commands can be complex and multi-layered, though they must still be specific. You cannot make them obviously endanger themselves or violate their instinct for self-preservation. The effects of the command will fade after a day has passed.
Anyone who witnesses you during this Effect's activation will almost certainly be disturbed to see a seed shoved down the creature's throat. Shortly after, the plant will bloom within the creature's stomach, which will see small crops/flowers/thorns/vines piercing through the skin. The physical change is permanent, even after the period of control has ended.
The beast shall walk among you, wearing the skin of a man. They shall smile and talk and they shall know their own from their prey, and they shall know their paths, so that they may stalk them themselves.
