    Default Stacking Charm Monster?

    Scenario:

    Bard (level 10) casts Charm Monster on big dumb monster - say an Ogre.
    Ogre fails save miserably and is now the bard's bestest friend - for the next ten days.
    Day 8: Bard casts Charm Monster on his good buddy the ogre, encouraging him to accept the helpful magic! Ogre intentionally fails save.
    Day 10: Original Charm effect is over.

    Question: Does the second Charm effect remain?

    The SRD doesn't really talk about the longer durations of spells, merely that sometimes one effect can supersede another. Any thoughts, preferably with a rule behind them, of what happens on day ten?

    Now that is exactly what I was looking for. Don't know how I missed that.

    And sweet. That is good news.
