	Though immobilised, bound creatures remain aware and capable of response. They may be addressed, questioned or reasoned with, and are subject to reaction rolls in response to what is said to them. The spell does not compel obedience or alter disposition; it merely imposes restraint. It is therefore possible, even under these conditions, for negotiation or persuasion to influence the outcome, rather than violence or reprisal.

-'''Bind''' creates a collection of magical restraints that constrains affected creatures, rendering them immobile and somewhat vulnerable, provided they fail a [[Saving Throws|saving throw vs. magic]].  Victims are able to thrash and strain against their bonds, so that they retain their [[Armour Class|armour class]] and aren't [[Helpless Defenders|helpless]], but they're unable to make attacks.  The caster can blindfold or gag recipients bound by the spell.

-Though able to affect one creature per level, the binding depends on the caster being stronger than the creature's being held.  To help with this, the caster counts his or her [[Strength (ability stat)|strength]] at +4, so that a mage that normally has a 10 strength would count as having 14.  Creatures with a strength greater than this adjusted number have a 1 in 4 chance of breaking free each round.  If a bound creature is [[Attacking in Combat|attacked]], the spell is weakened — so that in the following round, the creature has a 1 in 2 chance of breaking free, even if the creature is [[Stun Lock|stunned]].
+The dweomer is sensitive to interference. If a bound creature is [[Attacking in Combat|attacked]], the integrity of the binding is compromised; in the following round, the creature gains a 1 in 2 chance to escape, regardless of its strength, even if it is otherwise impaired or [[Stun Lock|stunned]]. Continued assault increases the likelihood that the restraints will fail altogether.
-Held creatures are subject to reaction rolls to things they are told while bound, enabling the caster and others to explain and negotiate.  Despite the bound creature's predicament, it always remains possible that reason and wisdom might carry the day.  Not every creature that's bound need become a revengeful, raging enemy merely because the caster dared impose the spell.
