[QUOTE="Phasics, post: 4478030, member: 38866"] Ok well I agree telepathy as it stands could be considered quite powerful however it only works at touch range and touch of the head at that and with poor physical attributes its not like he can just walk up to any creature and swing onto their shoulders without them trying to stop the Majar. The reason I didn't limit it to the Thoc was so that in a situation where the Thoc is out of the picture the Majar would need to ask another patry member to use them for a time or even the druids animal companion or find some medium sized animal in the forest and have a party member grapple it allowing the Majar to take control etc which I think is some nice flavour I also wanted to leave it open so there is some opporunity for the Majar to control other creatures during a campagin but I'm trying to make it near impossible at low levels and difficult at high levels but still an option, perhaps a limit on creature HD/ECL it can control would temper it so its no more powerful than a Thoc would be, but could add some interesting flavour. into a Campagin across a forest, Thoc dies tragically on the 2nd day, with no Thoc remotly close by. However the Party manage to grapple and hold an Orc that was left after a battle allowing the Majar to try and control it. Majar then spends the next few days mentally grappling with the Orc trying to get it to do his bidding, intally it would only move in combat and even then no always but after a week of good rolls the Orc was smashing heads with the best of them, however 7 days out from thier goal the Majar has a string of bad rolls and loses control of the Orc, it turns on him in the night and the party they kill the Orc but the Majar is now wounded and without a mount, so close to the end they dont have time to try and find and dominate a new mount, one fo the party allows the Majar to use it as a mount by doing so scraifces some actions in combat when the Majar' casting is required.
