MET Mechanics:

 Borrowing on the supernatural compulsion instilled by Presence, this technique urges your target to act on their first impulse with utmost haste. In many cases this will simply accompany a Summon challenge, though its uses could be much more complex. The requirement to use this technique is similar to Summon, with a close personal connection required to use it over any distance. A suggestive conversation or motivational speech of significant length should do the trick. The user must then spend one Willpower and defeat his target in a Social challenge retesting with Subterfuge. If successful, the target will appear to act quite hastily for the remainder of the scene. The target is actually only able to act on his base impulse, forgoing any careful planning or strategic maneuvering. An ST or narrator should direct the target to think of the first action that comes to mind in the current scenario and carry out that action as quickly as possible. The target may still spend Willpower to act normally for one turn, though the compulsion will quickly override their ability to function with any forethought. Mechanics-wise, this power should impart the negative traits Shortsighted and Impatient.
