# of targets you can dominate simultaneously

[Jack Simth]

It seems that the spell would be too powerful if you could do that, but I don't see any reason why not... You can ask your dominated victim to do whatever you like. Any idea, anyone?

I think that would fall under the "against nature" clause with a new saving throw at +2, possibly under the "obviousely self-destructive" clause for simply not carried out at all.

I love prestige classes.

Technically, a taskmaster could not even dominate any creature at all, since the caster level is too low to use this ability (minimum of 17th required), but well...

Not if you're a Divine Crusader... Dominate Monster from a 9th level caster. Whee!

But would it be against it's nature to fail a saving throw voluntarily?

(Edit: It clearly cannot be under the 'obviously self-destructive' clause, if it were obviously self-destructive they wouldn't need to be re-dominated, they'd be already dead)

Well, I think that it would be, now that I think about it. However that's still a good idea. Make it voluntarily lower it's defenses, save at +2. If it saves it does NOT lower it's defenses, and makes another save at normal. (If it failed that first save then it would indeed lower it's defenses)
