\reach{1}{The shaman takes over direct control over the muscles and nerves of a life form, forcing it to perform whatever tasks the Shaman desires for the Duration. If conscious, the subject is fully aware of the fact that their body is acting outside of their control. This may cause Dissonance by if the subject is a Sleeper. Their ability to voice their displeasure however may be limited. Use of this ability requires that the spell be cast with Concentration (\textcolor{spell}{Mage: the Awakening, p. 120}); the willworker isn't controlling the mind of the target, but their body, and must constantly fight against the subject's will to control their own body.}

\textit{The Ninth Street Pack barged into Symian's Sanctum, howling demands incoherently and creating a huge mess as his valuable magical equipment got knocked off of its tables and shelves and onto the ground, trashed. Symian was terrified at first, fleeing deeper into the recesses of the abandoned complex he resided in, screeching, ooking, and eeking like his Shadow Name suggests he would, until he was cornered by three of these hulking beastmen in their warforms. Symian put his index and middle fingers on each side of his temples and gave the biggest, dumbest looking of them a baleful stare. It began jerking and grinding its teeth in defiance, but before long its eyes glazed over as though it were possessed, and almost immediately after that was viciously tearing its nearest Packmate apart in a robotic fashion. The body language was horrifically departed from the usual impassioned, rage-filled norm of his brethren, moving instead as though the person had his gross motor movements on strings. His Packmate's entrails were strewn about the room as the other one next to him looked on in shock.}
\textit{The rest of the Pack had arrived just in time to see their Rahu turning away from the tattered corpse of his Packmate, not even bothering to eat its flesh. Symian had kept his fingers on his temples as he walked forward away from his corner, using his new puppet to go for its next target. But then, seemingly out of nowhere from Symian's perspective, a baseball bat crashed into the back of his head, and this invader was no longer a puppet.}
