[QUOTE="Water Bob, post: 7517694, member: 92305"] [b]Fantastic Spell: ENTRANCE[/b] This is not a real spell. It is hypnotism being used. It requires no power points. In fact, this may be the "spell" that Thulsa Doom used to chop off the head of Conan's mother in the 1982 movie, Conan The Barbarian. Remember how Thulsa just stared at Conan's mother? [img]http://conancompletist.com/img/photos/A3/conanA308.jpg[/img] [img]https://johneaves.files.wordpress.com/2012/05/111.jpg[/img] The first part of Thulsa Doom's staring could be the power boost gained by concentration as described by the spell. I say "could", because I'm not sure that this is the spell that Doom used. First off, the spell in the book requires a material component, and Doom used no component other than to just stare at his target. Maybe, the master sorcerer has learned a new way to cast the spell without any component needed. Also, Conan's mother might be flat footed while entranced. I'm guessing that Doom knows an alternate or improved version of this spell. The rest of the spell describes exactly what happens in the film. The sorcerer concentrates on his victim, and as he concentrates, the target cannot take any actions. Even if using the required component, this is a great spell to use. If successful, it renders your unable to act unless attacked. [b]Note[/b] that [b]Terrible Fascination[/b] is a similar spell that can affect all in a 10 foot radius of the caster. [/QUOTE]
