Resonating Will

Resonating Will — A power derived from the harmonious emission of metaphysical energy, attenuated by several specific frequencies of arcane energy. This power may be utilized up to ranges in excess of twenty miles when at full power and by an experienced user. Very low frequency sonic energy may be generated while resonance is occurring at higher power levels, sounding like a low hum to mortal ears.

The user of this power is capable of connecting to, influencing, and even commanding minds which are within the effective area. Any unprotected mind within the area of resonance will be detected by the user and possibly identified, as are emissions of metaphysical energy such as telepathy; such emissions may be intercepted, altered, or blocked by the user. Resonance efficiency is directly proportional to the duration a mind remains within effective range and inversely proportional to the distance between the user and the mind, thus, a mind which that is unprotected, within close proximity, and under prolonged, high power exposure to the resonating source will be highly affected.

An unprotected mind will ultimately succumb to a Resonating Will and in doing so will become attuned to the user. Once attuned, a mind will be under complete control of the user, extending to the control of actions, thoughts, and even memories. Resonance may also be used to unite one or more minds as a network; allowing the minds to remain free while providing a means to communicate and coordinate with uniform thought. The user ultimately maintains control over all interactions between attuned minds either free or controlled. Mental wards both temporary and permanent may protect from a Resonating Will for a time, however, as exposure and power increase warding will become less effective and, eventually, be overcome.
