[QUOTE="Lackofname, post: 7998152, member: 87598"] Because: Once the succubus starts layering in the mind controls, you're going to be her puppet. The lies she tells the character are going to be believed, hook line and sinker. "That performer is whispering against you. Your girlfriend is seeing someone else. The crowds are bigger at your show but you're not being compensated. Why don't you do something about it?" All that stuff you outline [I]she[/I] was doing to hurt other people? Now the PC is going to be pushed to do that. "I need you to start this rumor" "I need you to steal that and put it in someone's stuff..." Hell, with proper mind control/suggestion, the PC could have done something and then simply had the memory wiped. "You did this" "No I didn't" "You did, you just don't remember it". [B]Don't want to do those things?[/B] "Sure baby, I'll just take those benefits away." And here comes the reverse. "I get a +1d6 to damage but people around me are hurting" can be rationed away as "Well, it's not [I]me[/I] hurting them. I'M not responsible..." But when the character themselves are the ones hurting those around them, that's a different story. [/QUOTE]
