Mesmerism
This is a basic magical form of hypnotism that permits the caster to communicate with and command specific creatures of less than human intelligence. To communicate with a creature requires a successful Psyche FEAT roll. Commanding a creature is possible only if the caster's spell rank is greater than the creature's Endurance rank, and also requires a successful spell rank FEAT roll.
The target must be able to see the caster to be affected by this spell. If the caster is affected by an attack in the round he casts this spell, the mesmerism is automatically broken.
When this spell is obtained, the caster will be able to mesmerize only 1 specific type of animal: mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish, insects, etc. As he becomes experienced he can learn how to mesmerize other types (Judge's discretion).
