It must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or be charmed by you for the duration. If you or creatures that are friendly to you are fighting it, it has advantage on the saving throw. While the target is charmed, you have a telepathic link with it as long as the two of you are on the same plane of existence. You can use this telepathic link to issue commands to the creature while you are conscious (no action required), which it does its best to obey. Each time the target takes damage, it makes a new Wisdom saving throw against the spell. If the saving throw succeeds, the spell ends. --- ## At Higher Levels When you cast this spell using a 6th-level slot, the duration is **concentration, up to 10 minutes**. Using a 7th-level slot increases the duration to **1 hour**. Using an 8th or higher level slot increases the duration to **8 hours**.
