The Laibon may confront any other creature that possesses a Beast (for a basic list, see "Predator's Communion," above). She may attempt to use her Beast to dominate the opponent's and, if successful, the "subdued" Beast must obey the "dominant" Laibon.

System: The player rolls Manipulation + Courage (difficulty 5 if the victim is less powerful than the Laibon, 6 if of equal power, 8 if of greater power. Animals are typically less powerful, though there are exceptions). If the roll succeeds, the creature grudgingly obeys the Laibon. This is not a willing vassalage, but the servitude of an animal cowed into submission. the dominated creature bears no love for the Laibon, but is too fearful to act directly against her. the forcible servitude lasts until the the Laibon relaxes her vigilance. A botch sends the Laibon into Rotschreck.
