Okay. So I'm working on a Vampire NPC. However this Vampire is not from one of the thus-far revealed Courts. It'll likely be from one of the unknown Courts (stealing the suggested colour of grey), although it could potentially work as a 'different' Black Court - in that this one isn't a corpse.
They feed on blood, etc. Pretty much the common modern day interpretation of a standard Vampire; don't worry, they won't glow. Although, the inspiration is somewhat from the TV show Vampire Diaries - at least, for the power I wish to try and replicate. Anyone familiar with the show should recognise the name from the title.
Basically, the power allows the Vampire to force a (mortal) target to do something. Sort of like a Jedi Mind Trick, requiring eye contact. Powerful Vampires from the show can also use it to manipulate dreams and memories etc, but mostly I'm looking for the standard "you will not tell anyone I'm feeding on you", "shut up and don't move", "spike her drink with this", type things.
My first thought was to rework existing powers. Addictive Saliva, or Dominate. However the former places aspects, and the type of 'compels' (the pun is unavoidable) this power enables would exceed in-game compels power, IMO. Domination would fit better, as taking someone out allows for a variety of potent options - but this power would NOT turn someone into a mindless thrall. They would be themselves, but can be forced to take certain actions.
Any thoughts people? They would be greatly appreciated.
