| {{:abilities:seduction.png?nolink }} **Seduction** is an action with which a [[Stealthy]] commander, hiding in the province, may attempt to **steal** one local commander at random. The Seducer and the defender roll a dueling [[DRN]] check, with the base point value for the "Seduce" Roll being listed next to the trait; "Morale vs. 9", for example. If the Seduce Roll succeeds (or, well, **doesn't lose or tie**), and if the Seducer can move back to friendly territory **without sneaking**, the commander is brought to your side as yours. | {{:abilities:seduction.png?nolink }} **Seduction** is an action with which a [[Stealthy]] commander, hiding in the province, may attempt to **[[charm|steal]]** one local commander at random.

Dream Seducers wait until the target is sleeping, then attempt to insert themselves into their dreams; in this case, there are **two** skill checks, one against the target's **[[Magic Resistance]]** and another against the target's Morale. | {{:nations:ea:hinnom:lilot.png?nolink }} Certain Seducers only act through **Dreams**; these are the **??Succubus??**, the **Incubus**, and the **??Lilot??** of [[hinnom-ea|Hinnom]] and its successors.

| {{:items:soul_scales.png?nolink }} The Magic Resistance check difficulty is listed next to the trait; "MR vs. 15" for Succubi, for example, or "MR vs. 14" for Lilin. if this check fails, nothing happens. The Morale check is always against **15**, and it has the same consequences as a typical Seduction check. It doesn't use Beauty, however; instead, it uses the bonus of the ??Soul Scales??, known as "**Dream Enhancer**". | {{:items:soul_scales.png?nolink }} The Magic Resistance check difficulty is listed next to the trait; "MR vs. 15" for Succubi, for example, or "MR vs. 14" for Lilin. if this check fails, nothing happens.

| **Sex does not prevent Dream Seduction**, but it //does// make it tougher. How would an Incubi know how to woo another man? They'd have to guess. | **Sex does not prevent Dream Seduction**, but it //does// make it tougher. How would Incubi know how to woo another man? They'd have to guess. |

| | {{:nations:ea:oceania:siren_2.png?nolink }} A **Lure of the Deep** is a different sort of Dream Seduction, done by **??Siren??s**. A loss is entirely safe, a win **makes the target drown themselves**, and a win against someone who can [[Underwater|breathe water]] results in an underwater [[Assassin|Assassination]]. It only works in coastal provinces, the Magic Resistance check is against a **16** (instead of the point value), and the Morale check is against the listed point value (instead of a 15). Oddly, Beauty doesn't affect the Morale check. Dream Enchancer doesn't work, either. |
| | |
| | There's also a **??Lure of the Deep??** Global Enchantment that underwater {{path>G5W2}} mages can use, which affects coastal provinces. Every enemy unit (including non-commanders) has a 20% chance at base to be Lured each turn, plus 20% for every point of the caster's [[Dominion]] present; any enemy Dominion at all shields against the effect. The Magic Resistance check is a mere 7, instead of a 16. |

| {{:abilities:corruptor.png?nolink }} A **Corruptor** seduces fellows with things other than sex; lies, riches, or straight-up soul-hammering. They do not benefit from Beauty, or the Dream Enhancer trait, but they **ignore the target's Sex** and typically have a much higher skill level. | {{:abilities:corruptor.png?nolink }} A **Corruptor** seduces fellows with things other than sex; lies, riches, or straight-up soul-hammering.
