A ghostly blue skull appears behind the young warrior's head, he couldn't feel or see it, but his allies quickly became horrified. He wasn't himself anymore,
A terrible soulmeld created by a young ambitious necrocarnal, it allow the meldshaper to take control of a creature by grafting incarnum into the target. A unique soulmeld, this secret necrocarnum soulmeld is very unusual as it cannot be placed on oneself. Instead this soulmeld must be placed on another creature with a touch attack, a Will save is allowed to prevent the soulmeld from being affixed. Once the soulmeld is affixed the soulshaper gain control of the target, based on what chakra she bind the soulmeld to.
The Incarnate is restricted to binding the soulmeld on a chakra she can herself bind and this soulmeld count as one of the soulmeld she can bind in a day. It does not take the Incarnate's own chakra slot however. The meldshaper must stay within a certain distance of the target in order to retain control, starting at 10 feet at 1 essentia invested. At 2 essentia invested the range increase to 10 feet/level, a mile at 3 essentia, a mile/level at 4 and unlimited range even across the plane at 5. Additionally for each points of essentia invested in the soulmeld the DC of the discharge effect (see below) increase by 1 if it grant any. If the meldshaper and the affixed creature move out of range the soulmeld automatically unbind itself.
The Soulmeld appear as a skull made of ghostly incarnum, hanging back behind the affixed's creature head and matching it movement perfectly. This make the soulmeld not very subtle and give away if a creature is being controlled by it.
