[QUOTE="JollieRoger, post: 2544358, member: 22370"] Affect mind has 1 clear set limitation which is the suggestion can not be an obvious threat to the targets life. As, for limitations in my campaigns, I limit them in some of the following ways: The suggestion has to be for something immediate (these are not the droids you are looking for) The suggestion does not cause forced life changes. Free will is still a part of the ultimate decision only the person can make.(go home and rethink your life) In this example it is immediate and does not force a change on the person. They still have to make the final and ultimate decision and how long they decide to dwell on it is the targets choice (good roleplaying interactions). The suggestion can not knowingly threaten the persons life or health. The suggestion is for short term change (I need to speak with your master now). I don't want to see in a weeks time you will do this (this is mind control not suggestion). I think that a lot of the interactions between Anakin and the Palpatine Ep 3 was Affect mind. Palpatine gave lots of suggestions that confused Anakin, played to his desires (Padme) and made him doubt himself and what he believed. But Anakin made the ultimate decisions on what he did and why he did them. Hopefully this helps. [/QUOTE]
