Necrocarnum Dominion 
Descriptors: Evil
Classes:
Chakra:
Saving Throw: Will Negate

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 veil created by a young ambitious black vizier, it allow the veilweaver to take control of another by forcefully binding a controlling veil upon them. A unique veil, this secret technique is very unusual as it cannot be placed on oneself. Instead this veil must be placed on another creature with a touch attack, a Will save is allowed to prevent the veil from being affixed. Once the veil is affixed the veilweaver gain control of the target, based on what chakra she bind the veil to.

The veilweaver is restricted to binding the veil on a chakra she can herself bind and this veil count as one of the veil she can bind in a day. It does not take the Veilweaver's own chakra slot however. The veilweaver must stay within a certain distance of the target in order to retain control, starting at 10 feet at 1 essence invested. At 2 essence invested the range increase to 10 feet/level, a mile at 3 essence, a mile/level at 4, unlimited range at 5 and unlimited across planes at 6 and above. Additionally for each points of essentia invested in the soulmeld the DC of the initial Will save and any discharge effect (see below) by 1 if it grant any. If the veilweaver and the affixed creature move out of range the veil automatically unbind itself.

This Veil appear as a skull made of ghostly akasha, hanging back behind the affixed's creature head and matching it movement perfectly. This make the veil rather unsubtle and give away if a creature is being controlled by it.

Hands[edit]

"His hands were shaking apart, he couldn't draw his weapon and kill her once and for all."

The least form of the Necrocarnum Dominion, it simply place the veilweaver under the effect of sanctuary but only against the target. The effect does not allow a Will save beyond the initial, but is otherwise broken normally. The veilweaver may discharge this veil, forcing a Will save on the affixed creature, a failure make it unable to draw it weapon or take any offensive action for 1 round.

Head[edit]

"The girl's pupils turned a ghostly blue, she couldn't see the skull behind her own head even if she had eyes back there."

One of the lesser form of the Necrocarnum Dominion, it cause the affixed creature to fall under the effect of the hypnotism spell with no HD limit and without the ability to make requests. As a standard action you may discharge this veil, unbinding it, allowing you to make a request as the hypnotism spell describe.

Wrists[edit]

"He smiled"he didn't realize his friend clearly wasn't.

This form of Necrocarnum Dominion allow the veilweaver to charm a creature (as the spell). As a standard action you may discharge this veil, forcing the creature to make a Will save or be afflicted by an insidious suggestion.

Shoulders[edit]

"A pair of skeletal hands lay themselves on her shoulders, suddenly she couldn't move of her own accord. Much like a puppet on strings."

This form of Necrocarnum Dominion allow the veilweaver to control the body of a creature, but not their mind. This behave as the control body power. As a standard action you may discharge this veil, forcing the creature to make a Fortitude save or be left paralyzed for 1 round per veilweaver level.

Headband[edit]

"The skull's mouth griped around her head as a vise, forcing a much more authoritarian control." This form of Necrocarnum Dominion allow the veilweaver to control the mind of the target in much greater and insidious fashion. Behaving as the mind control power (with no type restriction). As a standard action you may discharge this soulmeld, forcing the creature to make a Will or come under the effect of a brain invasion power. If you decide to kill the creature with it, it receive no secondary fort save as it head explode from the psychic shock.

Chest[edit]

"His soul now was at the mercy of the vile Necrocarnal, he would have to obey her order or else..."

The most refined and insidious version of Necrocarnum Dominion, the target keep it free will and may obey or ignore the order of the veilweaver as it pleases it. The meldshape automatically know when the target is lying to her, disobeying her and whatnot as well as having a constant status effect of the target. As an immediate action you may discharge this soulmeld, forcing the creature to make a Fortitude or be instantly slain and have it soul transported to the veilweaver. The veilweaver must place the soul in an appropriated receptacle within 1 minute or else the soul move on.
