The Compulsion School

Compulsion School

This school focuses primarily on controlling the actions of others. It can be very powerful against those who are not able to defend against it but many creatures are immune to its abilities.

Description

Compulsion is the school of scholars and tricksters, and contains spells that affect the target’s mind in strange ways. Compulsion is highly aggressive - but none of the spells directly cause damage. Instead, they create effects such as stuns and mind crippling fear. Compulsion is very potent in the fact that armor and body points offer a target no protection from its effects. Because of this, compulsion is very useful in defeating powerful foes like trolls or experienced adventurers.

Practitioners of compulsion should be aware that it isn't very useful against mindless creatures, such as the Undead and Constructs among others.

Common symbolism for compulsion includes chains, pendants, and the color gold.

Compulsion is commonly associated with the Scholar and Darkness
