    Default Trigger Words...

    I have dominated another player, with the permission of the GM, and when I need to have him do something, I usually ask nicely and he does it... to build tension, I am thinking about adding trigger words, similar to bioshock 2's will you do me the favor?

    A Fighter/Paladin will just hack you to bits

    A Wizard/Sorcerer will just blow you up with a spell

    A Rogue/Ranger/Monk will just kill you in your sleep

    A Cleric/Druid will just squash you after buffing himself

    A Bard will slowly twist your ethics, corrupt your morals, and make you do vile acts just for the chance to face him. When you fight him, he will have your family and friends fighting for him. For he wields the deadliest weapon against you and that is, his word against yours.

    I do hope that you mean character, not player.

    Just use the safe word you've previously combined with him the other day.

    Every time I see this thread title I read it as "Trigger Woods", like a spin on Tiger Woods, and I think it must be the name of a new build based on Tiger Woods.

    Yes, that is how my mind works.
    I just published my first novella, Lúnasa Days, a modern fantasy with a subtle, uncertain magic.

    You can grab it on Kindle or paperback.

    Clearly Trigger Woods is some sort of crossbow sniper. Possibly also a Druid. Or a Treant.

    It really depends on how obvious you want it to be that you are dominating him. Most of the amusing (and demeaning) lines make it pretty obvious...

    Unrelated, my character discovered that he was dating one of the PC's sisters, which had a sister working at the mayor's office. My character earlier in the campaign infiltrated said office and mind controlled the sister (not knowing it was his girlfriend's sister at the time, finding out only afterwards) and it all came down to a nice reveal.

    Me (at a super-villain bar with girlfriend, using telepathy with the other PC): "So... I found out I'm dating your sister. Also, that I dominated your other sister."
    Which caused the speedster to burst into the bar and we almost had a fight over that special phrasing choice. Fun with dominate!
