[From user: dreadsexy. Interesting choice on Pidonus's part.]

Hey, this is Pidonus Marasia. I'm trying to figure out my goals and motivations and such a bit while I'm here, because the more I'm reviewing the situation, the more likely it is that it's gonna be quite some time before we find my world and I can return to my Queen. So, I gotta come up with motivations for myself,
I guess? Other than, you know, the dungeons. Which have some very weird loot, to say the least...

Anyways! I'd kinda like to try and get some, well, minions for myself. People willing to let me influence their minds into long-term servitude. Key word there is willing, because as quite a few people here have emphasized, it'd be a mistake for me to just take people's wills with my seductive powers.

Of course, anyone who would voluntarily agree to being under my spell is someone with clear and very severe issues. Like, if your mindstate's bad enough that "under the maniplation of a Succubus" qualifies to your own perception as an improvement... I mean, whatever floats your boat I guess, but I'm pretty sure in some cities that would legally qualify you as 'kind of insane'.

So, uh... What does that leave? I genuinely don't know. I'm. Sorta new to the whole 'need to have my own motivations' thing, and the Chaotic and Evil subtypes unto themselves don't do a lot for giving me ideas.

Noted.

It's nothing against you personally, but something like that... ah, let's just say it's not a fun time when you're controlled into doing something you have no desire to do.

[have_hat_will_travel]

Well, if it helps, my power works more by getting you to want it than making you move against your own thoughts? The body-puppet kind of Domination is... Yeah, that's scary stuff. I've been on the receiving end of it, so I get you there.

Even the charm type would be... Well, again, if someone wanted that it'd be sorta terrifying.

[matchmakes]

That's still not reassuring, admittedly. Depending on how one looks at it, some might even perceive it as worse. ... You have my sympathies for being on the receiving end of body-puppeting, as someone who's been through it myself.

... I don't know, some people might be into that sort of thing. Probably. People can be into very strange things.

[have_hat_will_travel]

Maybe, but... It'd still worry me, what kind of underlying issues lead to that.

[matchmakes]

Fair enough. I'd probably be pretty concerned myself.

[have_hat_will_travel]

Not saying I wouldn't at least consider taking the opportunity, but I would
look the gift horse in the mouth. I'm not cut out to be a psychotherapist.

[matchmakes]

There's something to be said for honesty, I guess.

[have_hat_will_travel]

Something like that. The fact that I upfront talked about this at least means people will know what to look out for if I start going all mad with power, which will hopefully help me stop myself from going mad with power.
