Adds charm players.

I feel inclined to kill any halflings that get charmed because obviously their mind is just as weak as the rest of them.

[Padraigg]

I was thinking about the doppelgänger stage.  If we are to kill the mob that looks like the player that is emoted, I wonder if illusions would screw this up.  Was thinking to be on the safe side, we may want to consider no one using illusions

I too was thinking the other day about whether illusions would count as race.  I "think" the mechanic will use your true race though.  There was an event a number of years ago in Shards landing that had a race check if I recall; who is the murderer event, and I don't remember illusions being a factor at the time.

I'm inclined to just let people use illusions if they wish at this stage and see what happens.  We'll know then for sure how it works.

Got a good laugh from that....but at the same time....I was terrified from Furro's lack of response. Centare made me do it!
