Command Another's Pet (Priest Spell)

This spell allows the shaman to gain the imme­diate loyalty of any tame, normal animal, includ­ing giant varieties thereof. The animal views the caster as its true master, forgetting all previous loyalties. It obeys any commands that it has been trained to obey, but does not gain any special abil­ity to understand the caster, and no additional in­telligence; it also retains its natural instincts and character, likes and dislikes.
To cast this spell, the caster takes a piece if food suitable for the animal, and tosses it to the creature. This is the spell's material component, and cannot be reused. While most people know that dogs eat meat, for example, more exotic pets may baffle a shaman. To correctly deduce the diet of an unusual animal, the shaman must make a successful Animal Lore proficiency check.
Notes: Restricted to shamans, uncommon.
Option: The DM might exclude certain crea­tures from the effects of this spell, such as a fa­miliar or a paladin's warhorse.
