Bend Minds

Type: Complication (Any Influence)
The adversary invades their victim’s thoughts, forcing them to do its bidding. The adversary implants a single suggestion in the target’s mind. If the latter accepts the influence, they must act upon the order during their next turn or at their earliest convenience when outside of combat. Orders such as “attack your friend” and “jump off the bridge” are valid options, but protagonists gain a +3 Enhancement on their Integrity action against directly suicidal orders. A player can choose to ignore the influence completely, which grants the influencing adversary +2 Enhancement on its next action against them.

For Nightmares and Shattered Spaces, this Dread Power forces a villainous Aspiration on a target which, if accepted, grants experience as usual when accomplished. Shattered spaces can reach targets within medium range of their location.
