Limits (if any) of nosferatu / vampire Dominate special attacks?


Rules Questions


In a fight if the vampire successfully dominates one of the heroes and tells them to go and wait in the next room, can it then in the next round try and dominate another hero and tell them to go and wait in the next room? So that if the vampire is strong enough eventually all party members could be in the next room for the next 1 day per level. Also IF one of the party members in that room then has Dispel Magic can they try and dispel the dominate effect as surely they know they are all dominated as they are not mindless and are fighting against it? Or can they discuss how to get rid of the domination?


1 person marked this as a favorite.

1. Yes, it can dominate further targets.
2. No, once commanded you follow the commands to the exclusion of all else save for day-to-day survival. Unless the vampire does something stupid like command you to kill yourself, anyway. You are so limited in action that other people can tell you're dominated due to your weird behavior. This isn't just a series of command spells--it's a full on mental whammy.


Thanks. Never DMd such a powerful monster before.

Yes, I am aware of that. Thanks.
