You sacrifice the mind of one, willing creature to have permanent, complete control over the mind of another. If you choose to embody the mind of the other person, your own body will remain dormant and requires minimal effort to maintain. If your body dies during this process, your consciousness will remain in the other person and you must bring your body back to life before you may return your consciousness. If the creature you are controlling dies, your mind will return to your original body.
If you choose instead to to control the body remotely, you may give the creature complex commands as a bonus action and it will follow the command to the best of its ability. The creature no longer is able to make decisions for itself and will not protect itself unless given specific direction to do so. However, its intelligence and wisdom are not affected by this spell, so one could give complex commands to "kill ____" or "steal ____" and it will use all its available resources to do that.
This curse can only be reverted by wish and is not detectable by detect magic.
Creatures with an intelligence score lower than 4 are not affected. Creatures with more than one mind are not affected.
* - (The consciousness of a willing person, which is consumed by the spell.)
