You can only tell the player that there is an unbelievably menacing, huge foe telling him to do something or else, but you cannot actually make the PC do it without magical compulsion like dominate. It is up to the PC (which means up to the player) how he will react. For PCs intimidating NPCs it works the same - it is up to the DM how the NPC will react when intimidated.(Yes, one of my pet peeve is players trying to tell me how my NPCs should react. I make those NPCs, I know what their motivations are, I know why they do what. If you want to control NPCs, then DM.)</blockquote>
