I'd like to see the condition "possessed" added to the repertoire both here and in the core rules. It would come in handy, I think, for situations when PCs or NPCs lose control to demons or to effects similar to magic jar and certain types of madness. The description might read something like "a possessed creature is controlled by an outside agent and is incapable of actions except those designated by the possessing agent." Charmed doesn't quite do it. Could we get it added for home-brew use, at least? Mad, too, is a condition we need for similar reasons, but since madness can take so many forms, I can't really see how it could be generalized and still to be useful as a standard Condition.
