The charm spell, if successful, will place the victim (only mobs, attempts
to charm other player-characters may incur the wrath of the gods) under
your control for the duration of the spell. While under your control
the creature is your servant, and may assist you in combat and other
more minor duties. Use the 'order' command to give them orders.
Be warned, you are responsible for the actions of your charmed beast. If
it should go awry and take the life of another player-character, you will
be charged as a murderer and will be hunted by several creatures around
the Realms.
Aggressive mobs will lose their aggressiveness while charmed, but will
immediately return to their violent ways when the spell wears off. For
this reason, charmed aggressive mobs should not be taken into any area
lower from the one from which they came, and should *never* be taken
into Darkhaven or the Academy. Those found doing so will pay dearly.
As a matter of etiquette, charmed mobs should not be attacked. You can
tell a mob is charmed if it is wandering "in a dazed, zombie-like state."
Be aware when taking your charmed mobs around other characters that any
area attack such as call lightning, gas breath or earthquake will hit
your creature and cause it to engage in combat.
