Vocal Mind Control

The power to **control people with the power of one's voice**. Variation of Mind Control. Not be confused with Hypnotic Voice.

## Also Called

* Brainwashing
* Charmspeaking
* Compelling Voice
* Hypersuasion
* Influencing
* Mind-Tricking
* Obedience Inducement
* Persuasion
* Psychic Suggestion
* Suggestion
* Vocal Charisma
* Vocal-Induced Manipulation

## Capabilities

The user can compel people by speaking, the victims are unable to disobey; the seemingly cogent commandment is far too compelling. At a high level, users can persuade people into hurting/killing themselves or even flip around sense of logic, but can never cause victims to achieve what they are not capable of (ex. Flight).

## Applications

* Command Inducement
* Empathic Conversion
* Mental Inducement
* Pushing

## Techniques

* Confession Inducement: Implore others nesting bile and secrecy holstered beneath their false appeal to come clean, and even act on their most selfish impulses.
* Inhibition Release Compel people to admit to and act upon repressed mandates to slake their personal selfish desires.
* Logic Mandate: Skilled enough users can control a victim's perception of reality, rendering others comatose with a simple sentence or changing moral alignment to suit their whim.
	+ Convinced Inevitability: Users can convince anyone of most any unavoidable outcome, thus earning their adherence to said principles and their set directive.
* Truth Inducement: to force veracity by vocal questions and prevent them to come up with a lie, similar to Lie Detection.

## Variations

**Hypnosis**

* The psychic ability to put one into a trance-like state of extreme suggestibility.
* **Autohypnosis** also called *Autohypnotism*, *Autosuggestion*, *Hypnotic Self-Control* or *Hypnotic Autosuggestion* is the psychic ability to place oneself under hypnotic control.
* **Hypnotic Beauty** also called *Blinding Beauty* is the ability to stun subjects with unnaturally good looks (trapping them in the thought of one’s beauty like a deer in headlights, similar to Mesmorization or Stupefaction).
* **Hypnotic Breasts** also called *Bust Hypnosis* is the ability to emit a powerful hypnotic trance upon visual contact with the user's breasts, while under the trance subjects are under the user's control over any suggestions the user desire (this effect may take a few minutes to work or can happen instantly depending on the subject).
* **Hypnotic Call**, also called *Hypnotic Lure* is the ability to draw subjects to the user without the use of music or otherwise lyrical undertones.
* **Hypnotic Charm**, also called *Charisma* or *Animal Magnetism* is the ability to hypnotically cause subjects to like the user, trust, respect, and become doting sycophants that will do anything to please them.
* **Hypnotic Medium** is the ability to channel one’s hypnotic powers through an object. The most common object to use is a pendulum with a jewel or gem on it (though other media can be used, even a pinwheel or the like).
* **Hypnotic Music** also called *Hypnotizing Music* or *Hypnotic Composition* is a variation of Hypnotism in which the user channels their subliminal powers of hypnotic control (only the trance-inducing, not the commanding) through one’s music. This can be channeled through any instrument one plays (if one uses the voice, it is instead Hypnotic Song), as long as the music is played accurately.
* **Hypnotic Song** is the ability to emit a beautiful song that entrances people and subliminally compels them to either follow any predetermined orders given by the user in the song or to try to reach the source of the song, no matter what dangerous obstacles are in the way of the path (it may even just mesmerize a subject or make them want to dance).
* **Hypnotic Stare** or *Hypnotic Gaze* is the ability to place subjects into a hypnotic trance by looking them in the eyes.
* **Hypnotic Touch** or *Tactile Hypnosis* is the ability to place subjects into a hypnotic trance by touching them.
* **Hypnotic Voice** is the ability to speak with a calm and soothing voice which places subjects into a state of extreme suggestibility.

* **Pushing** is the ability to implant memories, thoughts and emotions into the minds of others.
* **Subliminal Seduction** is the ability to project seductive thoughts to the minds of others.

**Psychological Intuition**

* A true manipulator's best quality is the capacity to see and understanding, predicting, and manipulating personal behavior.

* Someone with high or super intelligence may be resistant/immune to persuasion.
* The same fault applies to those of low intellect, being too stupid to grasp the user's meaning.
* Anything that prevents the user from speaking or target from hearing blocks this power.
* If wanting someone to forget something, sometimes they will make them stop thinking it but the thought would still linger in the back of their brain, and they may try to ask it again if it is a question.
* Complex commands may be less effective than simple commands.
	+ Complex command ex. - Telling your victim to bake a cake by reciting the recipe and instructions.
	+ Simple command ex. - Telling your victim to pick something up.
