The manifester permanently controls the actions of any humanoid of Medium-size or smaller. The manifester establishes a telepathic link with the subject's mind. If the manifester and the subject share a common language, the manifester can generally force the subject to perform as he or she desires, within the limits of the subject's abilities. If no common language is shared, the manifester can only communicate basic commands. The manifester knows what the subject is experiencing but does not receive direct sensory input from him or her.
Subjects resist this control, and those forced to take actions against their natures receive a new saving throw with a penalty of -10. If the subject succeeds at the save, the action is not taken, but the subject remains under the manifester's control. Once a subject of thrall makes a successful saving throw to resist a specific order, it makes all future saving throws to resist taking that specific action without a penalty. Obviously self-destructive orders may be carried out if the above save is failed. Once control is established, the range at which it can be exercised is unlimited, as long as the manifester and subject are on the same plane. The manifester need not see the subject to control it.
Protection from evil or a similar spell or power can prevent the manifester from exercising control or using the telepathic link while the subject is so warded, but it does not prevent the establishment of domination or negate it.
The only way to dissolve thralldom is through the successful manifestation of another thrall power, manifested with the intention of freeing the thrall, or the successful use of the spell disjunction.
XP Cost: 5,000 XP.
