[QUOTE="pukunui, post: 6636717, member: 54629"] The [I]crystal ball of telepathy[/I] in the DMG looks pretty good. You can cast [I]suggestion[/I] through it. The trouble is a) the eladrin PC will have advantage on her save against [I]suggestion[/I] since it's a charm spell, and b) elves don't generally like to compel each other to do things, since they value individual freedom so much. In this instance, though, they may feel differently, because the PC in question is technically still a child. She ran away from home at the tender age of thirty, and no doubt her aristocratic parents have been trying to track her down ever since. She recently bumped into her wicked older brother, who is a member of an elven racial supremacist group, and he unsuccessfully tried to get her to go back home with him. So I'm trying to figure out what her parents - and brother - would do next. At first, I thought maybe the mother could send some kind of vision to her daughter, pleading with her to come home. But elves don't dream and can't be subjected to that kind of magic, it would seem. I'm thinking the brother might lie and tell her parents she's been kidnapped by the other PCs, who've brainwashed her into thinking she's one of them. That might prompt the parents into mounting a "rescue" mission that would lead to the deaths of the other PCs ... some of whom are half-elven 'abominations' (in the eyes of the racial supremacists). Anyone got any suggestions, if you'll pardon the pun? ;) [/QUOTE]
