Legend of the Seeker

Legend of the Seeker is a television series based on the novels titled The Sword of Truth by Terry Goodkind.

The series follows the journeys of a long-awaited "Seeker of Truth" named Richard Cypher (Craig Horner), a Confessor named Kahlan Amnell (Bridget Regan), a wizard named Zeddicus Zu'l Zorander (Bruce Spence), and a Mord-Sith named Cara (Tabrett Bethell) as they defend the people of their realm against tyranny and destruction.

The Confessors were an order of women first created during the Great War as a means of ascertaining the truth beyond doubt, they possess the power to ascertain whether a person speaks the trues or not.

But most notably they possess the power of "Confessing", which cause the person whom which they confess to become desperately in love with them and become their absolute slave. the effect of the magic lasts until the Confessor dies, and doesn't need to be perform more then once on a person to last. Once confessed the victim's first respond is always: " Command me, Confessor / Mistress". the Confessors achive that by two ways:

Either by touch: they grab the victim's neck and looks into his eye (both the victim's and the Confessor's eyes become black), (though it's not necessarily has to be done this way, and can be performed without direct eye contact).

Or by what's called "Con Dar" or "Blood Rage" in which they turn mad and hyper aggressive and can Confess people from a distance without touching them.

Unlike in the books, Kahlan is not the only survivor of the Confessors in this series.

Though there are additional mind-control scenes not based on the Confession power, such as usage of the Box of Orden. Or the brainwashing process of "Training" by the "Mord-Sith", most scenes of mind controlling is by Confessing, most notably by Kahlan Amnell.
