Proselytize

is a skill which allows its users to attempt to recruit creatures to their side.

Using the skill takes 1000 action cost, a full turn.

When the player uses it, they will be asked for a direction, then attempt to proselytize the creature standing next to them in that direction. A successful usage will convince that creature to join the proselytizer indefinitely. Only 1 creature can be proselytized at a time.

Proselytize is an Ego stat based attack that is defended against by Mental Armor. However, a failed proselytize attempt will not make creatures hostile, unlike failing an attempt to Beguile.

Unlike beguiling, it is possible to proselytize creatures that have Mental shields.
