(When activating this Effect, it is obvious you are interacting with the target. You must actively and obviously be using Rikkrakk's collar.)

The collar's unstable energy crackles and jumps to your head before you loosely meld your consciousness with the targeted rodent.

Exert your Mind and spend an Action. Select a Non-Alien Creature within 20 feet. This Effect cannot be used unless you are targeting a rodent. You must actively and obviously use Rikkrakk's collar to activate this Effect.

For the next day, you may issue specific commands to your target which they will be compelled to follow. All other Non-Alien Creatures which are the same species as your target will also be compelled to follow commands that you issue if they are within 20 feet when the command is given.

Your commands must be relatively simple and within the target’s intellectual grasp. You can make them endanger themselves or otherwise go against their self-preservation instincts. The effects of the command will fade after a day has passed.

If you use this Effect on the same Creature two days in a row, the effect lasts indefinitely.

You may only use this Effect once per day.

  • Your commands must be directly communicated to your target in some way, though this does not require a shared language.
  • If targeting a Sapient target that counts as a Creature due to an Effect, you must succeed a contested Mind roll. You roll at Difficulty 6, and the target rolls at Difficulty 8.
  • You can target yourself if you qualify as a valid target by the other requirements.
  • Your target must be within line of sight, or within range of another sense if more fitting for the Gift's flavor.

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.

Perhaps it's this ability-- this kinship with the creatures of the wild-- that lead her to survive that faithful hike nearly twenty years ago. When Kimori and their pack came across the scared little girl deep into the mountains, they did not see her as threat or prey, instead adopting the child of man as one of their own.
