Where a skill like Venom is a naturally developed ability, and a skill like Subterfuge is an ability with many magical elements, Hypnosis is a science. It has long been known that our subconscious mind is a powerful force and that it can be influenced in mysterious ways, but until a forgotten Serpentlord discovered the principles of Hypnosis, there was no way to use it.

With this skill, a practitioner of Hypnosis will be able to sink someone into a hypnotic trance, possibly even without them realising it, and implant various subliminal suggestions. They can then seal their victim's mind and implant a timer that determines how long after the hypnosis has been triggered until the suggestions start becoming active.

The skill of Hypnosis is available to members of the Serpent class, along with Subterfuge and Venom.
