[QUOTE="_Michael_, post: 9532106, member: 7045276"] Hahaha, more good points! Yeah, I'm very likely being overly careful of how its built, but that's because I want it to stand up to scrutiny--namely, my own. lol I'm a harsh taskmaster with my designs. I think I fixed it.

The target must succeed on a DC 17 Will save or be affected as though by a dominate person spell. An enthralled creature obeys the gloomfetch’s telepathic commands until freed by [I]remove curse[/I], and can attempt a new Will save every 24 hours to break free.
