Bindings (Hedge Magic)
Description: Binding levels are cumulative.
- Once the subject arrives the magician can try to compel it to service, if the summoner dares! A minor binding pits the wizards will against his subject's, using the Immutable Laws of What Is. True Mages claim that such a contest pit one Avatar against another...with perhaps a bit of outside help from other concerned parties. To affect a minor binding the wizard spends a Willpower point and performs his ritual (Manipulation + Occult). His target rolls her own Willpower(difficulty of the Wizards own). If she wins, the Binding has no effect. If she loses, she must perform one task for him before she is freed. This should be spelled out in as complete a form as possible. Rest assured that any Bound being will be looking for a way out.
The creature cannot act against the sorcerer.

- The creature truthfully answers questions and must perform any one service demanded, though it may twist the intent of the service.
