A slightly less absolute counterpart to [[SRD:Psionic Dominate|''psionic dominate'']], ''mind control'' makes creatures affected by it extremely susceptible to your will. The target of this spell may not take any hostile actions toward you or your allies and you may have anything you say to it treated as a [[SRD:Psionic Suggestion|''suggestion'']] to which no saving throw is granted (suicidal order are still out of the question). Once the duration of the power end, the creature is freed from any order the manifester gave.

A perk this power has over [[SRD:Psionic Dominate|''psionic dominate'']] is that on a failed save, the creature is not necessarily aware it is being controlled, although it may soon realize it based on how you control the creature. Additionally, the [[SRD:Sense Motive|sense motive]] check to discern if the affected creature is under a [Mind-Affecting] effect is the same as more conventional mind control effects (DC 25).

On a successful save, the creature takes a &minus;2 penalty on [[Will]] saves against [Mind-Affecting] powers for 3 rounds, but the power is otherwise negated.

'''[[SRD:Augment|Augment]]:''' You can augment this power in one or more of the following ways.

1. If you spend 2 additional [[SRD:Power Points|power points]], this power can also affect an [[SRD:Animal Type|animal]], [[SRD:Fey Type|fey]], [[SRD:Giant Type|giant]], [[SRD:Magical Beast Type|magical beast]], or [[SRD:Monstrous Humanoid Type|monstrous humanoid]].

2. If you spend 4 additional [[SRD:Power Points|power points]], this power can also affect an [[SRD:Aberration Type|aberration]], [[SRD:Dragon Type|dragon]], [[SRD:Elemental Type|elemental]], or [[SRD:Outsider Type|outsider]] in addition to the creature types mentioned above.

3. For every 2 additional [[SRD:Power Points|power points]] you spend, this power can affect an additional target. Any additional target cannot be more than 15 feet from another target of the power.

4. If you spend 2 additional [[SRD:Power Points|power point]], this power’s duration is 1 hour rather than concentration. If you spend 4 additional [[SRD:Power Points|power points]], this power’s duration is 1 day rather than concentration. If you spend 8 additional [[SRD:Power Points|power points]], this power’s duration is 1 day per [[SRD:Manifester Level|manifester level]] rather than concentration. If you spend 10 additional [[SRD:Power Points|power points]], this power’s duration is permanent.

5. If you spend 2 additional [[SRD:Power Points|power point]], this power becomes ''Insidious Mind Control''. In which you may give the creature [[Insidious Suggestion (3.5e Spell)|''insidious suggestion'']] instead of [[SRD:Suggestion|''suggestion'']]. 

6. If you spend 4 additional [[SRD:Power Points|power point]] you may have the target forget its experiences while under mind control, as per [[SRD:Modify Memory|''modify memory'']] (except it spans the entire mind control).

In addition, for every 2 additional [[SRD:Power Points|power points]] you spend to achieve any of these effects, this power’s save [[SRD:DC|DC]] increases by 1.
