Animal Control: This potion enables the imbiber to empathize with and
control the emotions of animals of 1 type, i.e. cats, dogs, horses, etc. The
number of animals so controlled depends upon size: 5-20 animals of the
size of giant rats, 3-12 animals of about man-size, or 1-4 animals of about
% ton or more in weight. The sort of animal which can be controlled
depends upon the particular potion as indicated by die roll (d20):
 
 
1-4 mammal/marsupial
5-8 avian
9-12 reptile/amphibian
13-15 fish
16-17 mammal/marsupial/avian
18-19 reptile/amphibian/fish
20 all of the above

Animals with intelligence of 5 (low intelligence) or better are entitled to a
saving throw versus magic. Control is limited to emotions or drives unless
some form of communication is possible. Note that many monsters cannot
be controlled by the use of this potion, nor can humans, demi-humans, or
humanoids. (Cf. Ring of Mammal Control.)
