Expand Dominate/Hold Animal targets

Post by Scraps » Sat Feb 04, 2023 10:52 am

As the title, I'm suggesting the spell Dominate/Hold/Charm Animal be expanded to include Vermin and Magical Beasts.

Basically mirroring how Dominate/Hold/Charm Person was expanded to include a variety of humanoid targets in Areliths past instead of just strictly 'PC humanoid' targets.

This vastly increases the usefulness and potential targets of a group of spells that's in several spellbooks but gets very little use.

In addition, allowing Dominate Animal to target (The few non-mind immune) Vermin give it a narrow but useful niche over Animal Empathy.
