Spell and Will Power

Spell Drive draws its motivation from the desire to exercise power over something or someone.  Alternatively, it can also arise through a desire to surrender one’s will or to give in to something so fascinating (or terrifying) that time seems to stand still.

A good example of Spell Drive can be found in the classic film Dracula starring Bela Lugosi.  In one scene Dracula is confronted by vampire slayer Professor Van Helsing, and they engage in a battle of wills.  Lugosi seeks to overpower his foe by a concentrated gaze and gesture of Directing, Increasing Pressure, and Binding.  Van Helsing resists, and ultimately musters enough force to extract a cross from his pocket.  The spell is broken as Dracula recoils quickly and flees.
