DESCRIPTION

You can attempt to suppress a compulsion or charm effect on another creature by overwhelming the creature with conflicting telepathic signals, temporarily canceling the domination. When you manifest this power, make a manifester level check against the ongoing controlling power currently in effect on the creature. The manifester level check is 1d20 + your manifester level against a Difficulty Class of 11 + the manifester level of the entity that originally manifested the controlling power. On a successful check, the control is suppressed for 1 full round. Even though suppressed, the compulsion or charm is still considered to be running off its duration.

Augment: You can augment this power in one or more of the following ways.

  1. If you spend 4 additional power points, you can attempt to permanently terminate a compulsion or charm effect on another creature, including mind control. When you manifest this power, make a manifester level check against the ongoing controlling power currently in effect on the creature against a Difficulty Class of 11 + the manifester level of the entity that originally manifested the controlling power. On a successful check, you terminate the effect.
  2. For every additional power point you spend, you increase your check result by +1 and extend the duration by 1 round.
