Dust of Control
Alchemy, Alchemical dust
Works like the chosen Potion of Control but over a dust's area.
From the book
A second listing of the control dust. Made with the ingredients of any Potion of Control, it has the same effect as the potion of that type, but spread over a dust's area of effect, a 10-foot cube, instead of working through the drinker. The effect lasts 1 hour. Potions of Control let the user command 1-4 creatures of one type, which turn violently hostile once the magic fades; creatures with Will of 10 or more get a save.
