• Truth Inducement: to force veracity by vocal questions and prevent them to come up with a lie, similar to Lie Detection.

• Autohypnosis, also called Autohypnotism, Autosuggestion, Hypnotic Self-Control or Hypnotic Autosuggestion is the psychic ability to place oneself under hypnotic control.
• Hypnotic Beauty also called Blinding Beauty is the ability to stun subjects with unnaturally good looks (trapping them in the thought of one’s beauty like a deer in headlights, similar to Mesmorization or Stupefaction).
• Hypnotic Breasts also called Bust Hypnosis is the ability to emit a powerful hypnotic trance upon visual contact with the users breasts, while under the trance subjects are under the user's control over any suggestions the user desire (this effect may take a few minutes to work or can happen instantly depending on the subject).
• Hypnotic Call, also called Hypnotic Lure is the ability to draw subjects to the user without the use of music or otherwise lyrical undertones.
• Hypnotic Charm, also called Charisma or Animal Magnetism is the ability to hypnotically cause subjects to like the user, trust, respect and become doting sycophants that will do anything to please them.
• Hypnotic Medium is the ability to channel one’s hypnotic powers through an object. The most common object to use is a pendulum with a jewel or gem on it (though other media can be used, even a pinwheel or the like).
• Hypnotic Music, also called Hypnotizing Music or Hypnotic Composition is a variation of Hypnotism in which the user channels their subliminal powers of hypnotic control (only the trance-inducing, not the commanding) through one’s music. This can be channeled through any instrument one plays (if one uses the voice, it is instead Hypnotic Song), as long as the music is played accurately.
• Hypnotic Song is the ability to emit a beautiful song that entrances people and subliminally compels them to either follow any predetermined orders given by the user in the song, or to try to reach the source of the song, no matter what dangerous obstacles are in the way of the path (it may even just mesmerize a subject or make them want to dance).
• Hypnotic Stare or Hypnotic Gaze is the ability to place subjects into a hypnotic trance by looking them in the eyes.
• Hypnotic Touch or Tactile Hypnosis is the ability to place subjects into a hypnotic trance by touching them.

• Someone with high intelligence or super intelligence can be resistant to it.
• The same fault applies to those of low intellect, being too stupid to grasp the users meaning.
• Anything that prevents the user from speaking or target from hearing blocks this power.
• Users of Psychic Shield (highly resistant) and Psychic Immunity (impervious).
• If wanting someone to forget something, sometimes they will make them stop thinking it but the thought would still linger in the back of their brain, and they may try to ask it again if it is a question.

  • Complex command ex. - Telling your victim to bake a cake by reciting the recipe and instructions.
  • Simple command ex. - Telling your victim pick something up.
