Description
​Any creature with an Intelligence between 7 and 17 can receive a post-hypnotic suggestion. (very dim or very brilliant creatures aren’t susceptible.) The psionicist plants a suggestion of some reasonable course of action in the creature's subconscious, along with the situation that will trigger this action. When that situation arises, the DM makes a power check against the psionicist's post-hypnotic suggestion score, with a -1 penalty or each day that has passed since the suggestion was planted. A "reasonable course of action" is one that does not violate the creature's alignment or class restrictions. It can be something that he would not normally do, but if it is too strange, he just won't do it. The maintenance cost of this power is a one-time-only payment made when the suggestion is implanted. ​
