Subdue the Demon "急急如律令!"

4
Requires Seasoned
The power to command creatures.
Used by Nathan Hong, Created by Ltyinkwint.
(This Effect may or may not be obviously Alien when used. When activating this Effect, it is obvious you are interacting with the target. You must actively and obviously be using a ling pai.)

Nathan presents the ling pai, a carved token with rounded top and leveled bottom, to the target and borrows the prestige of a higher heavenly official, decreeing a command with absolute authority, perhaps being possessed by something more for but a brief moment, or perhaps not.

Exert your Mind and spend an Action. Select a Creature within arm's reach. You must actively and obviously use a ling pai 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 Creatures which are the same species as your target will also be compelled to follow commands that you issue if they are within arm's reach when the command is given.

Your commands can be complex and multi-layered, though they must still be specific. 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.

  • 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.
  • Targets with Body ratings higher than 10 require a Charisma + Animals roll resisted by the target’s Body. Kaiju and environment-scale targets are immune.
  • 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.
