The dominate person spell allows the spellcaster to telepathically influence and control a nearby humanoid, and the similar dominate monster spell can dominate any type of person. If they share a language, the caster can issue complex commands; otherwise only basic commands, such as "fight" or "come here", work. With concentration, direct sensory input can be read by the caster. The subject is not obligated to follow self-destructive commands.1[citation needed]
