This is the device that the villain (usually) will use to keep the hero, townspeople, or Mr./Mrs. Random Supporting Character in thrall. It has been used countless times in stories across many different types of media, whether it be as a Plot Device, MacGuffin, and even a key part of a Very Special Episode. While these devices tend to fall into two general categories, either broadcasting "hypno-waves" at any luckless viewer for a one-time treatment, or are somehow attached to the victim's body (usually the head), they ultimately know no shape and can come in nearly any specific form: That sword you just picked up? Hope you like being a slave to the evil overlord. That mask that looks so good on you? Hope you can control the demonic power inside. That shampoo you're using? Dr. D's BrainWashing Shampoo and Cranium Rinse. That bracelet the street vendor gave you? Welcome to the most dangerous cult in the world. See Mind Control, Mind-Control Eyes and More than Mind Control for the effects of these devices. May be the result of televising a person with the power of Hypnotic Eyes. See also: Power Perversion Potential for the inevitable result in some viewers. May require the target to be Forced to Watch a transmission of some kind. Super-Trope of Subliminal Seduction, Hypno Ray, and Hypno Trinket. |

The HypnoDrones in Universal Paperclips, described in-game as "autonomous aerial brand ambassadors". As soon as humanity trusts you enough to let you launch them, you immediately enslave the human race, force them to build production facilities that convert organic matter into paperclips, then throw themselves into the grinders. | |

Stalkers who waltz into it's area of effect without psychic protection start losing their memory and mind until they're completely broken mentally and brainwashed by the C-Consciousness to be turned into Monolith soldiers or sleeper agents. Those who don't have the "luck" to be brainwashed turn into Zombies. | |

In the later Honor Harrington novels, a rogue planet of eugenicists called Mesa develops a nano-virus that is capable of compelling behavior out of its victims. It is used several times to stage assassinations and get rid of key enemies and is notable in the series for being initially dismissed as impossible because they've had mind control tech for centuries, but every military has its people protected against it. | |

A Justice League of America issue in the Bronze Age has a scientist invent a "re-memory" ray gun — it causes its targets to remember making decisions favorable to the wielder of the device. It's amazingly convenient — he doesn't even have to tell them what he wants, they just come up with something on their own. Naturally, he does just what you would do with such power: steal the plankton from Earth's oceans and sell it to an alien who just happens to pop into his lab looking for a solution to his world's environmental problems. Hey, The '70s, man... | |

A popular conspiracy theory holds that blood drives are a "cover" for implanting mind control chips, and the secret was blown when someone ran a stud finder over his arm and found the chip. The MythBusters showed that you can detect a microchip implanted under the skin with a stud finder (they borrowed a dog with an ID chip to practice), but found no chips in either Jamie or Adam after a trip to the Red Cross. | |

Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey: During the exploration of Sector Delphinus, the crew falls victim of a Hate Plague that makes them murderously insane. The ship AI reveals that among the arsenal provided for the mission there are some special weapons called the MK Guns (named after Project MKUltra, see the Real Life folder) capable of inducing "altered mental states" on the target that might prove of some use in the crisis. The remaining crew questions why their superiors would include what are essentially brainwashing devices with the ship AI being the sole crewmember privy of this information. | |

Dungeon Keeper Ami: Multiple: The dungeon hearts do this to a minor degree with Keeper minions. It's used as an explanation for why Being Tortured Makes You Evil in the Dungeon Keeper setting itself, as most minions can't easily break the bonds the Dungeon Heart places on them. Jadeite also creates a mind control headband to contain Baron Liepold, and its temporarily effective, but he eventually fights it off. In "Odd Discoveries", a crystal related to a God of Evil known as "The Unraveller" is revealed to have such powers when used by a monsterized fairy. |

SCP Foundation: SCP-232 ("Jack Proton's Atomic Zapper"): Within thirty seconds of picking up a powered SCP-232, the person doing so will start to talk like a character in an old science fiction novel series. If they're familiar with the series they will believe that they're a character in it. SCP-288 ("The "Stepford Marriage" Rings"): When a man or a woman who is in a relationship puts on the ring appropriate to their sex, they start acting like an idealized 1950s U.S. version of themselves. Women start acting like perfect housewives, including performing domestic skills like an expert. Men act like an idealized husband, including being a hard worker and good with kids. SCP-1047 ("Vengefully Ironic Street Signs"): SCP-1047-5 is a "Yield" sign. When it's activated, all vertebrate creatures in the room will sit motionless until they see or hear a statement that can be interpreted as a command.

In the Power Rangers fic Forever Yellow, it is discovered that a version of Venjix has been created in the main Power Rangers reality, with this version having developed a form of mind control to make humans its slaves. However, this form of mind control is only effective on men as the project that created Venjix was staffed exclusively by male scientists by relative coincidence, allowing for a team of female Yellow Rangers to be assembled to defeat Venjix as they won't be vulnerable to the mind control. | |

Mega Man X: Corrupted has the Neuro Spike weapon, which allows X to brainwash an enemy (or missile) by attaching it to them. Regular Mooks will become friendly and will attack other enemies provided that X doesn't run out of weapon energy.

Lilo & Stitch: The Series: Lilo uses a centipede-like experiment named Checkers capable of giving the user who wears it command over all living creatures, to make the town worship her as their queen and make Mertle and her friends build her the locust moat she wanted after they rejected her idea earlier. Although, the victims retain their personalities but are completely under the wearer's power. Eventually, Lilo learns the error of her ways when she finds that Mertle has imprisoned most of the townspeople for the slightest infractions. When Lilo decided to step down, Gantu took Checkers and was in power until Stitch, who was immune to its powers, gathered several experiments to help overthrow him. | |

Star Wars: The Clone Wars establishes this as being the reason why the clone troopers turn on the Jedi who they had been working alongside for so long in Revenge of the Sith. Each one has a biological tumor-like chip implanted during the embryonic stage. They're set to activate when Palpatine gives the order "Execute Order 66", but one clone's activates prematurely and almost reveals the plot to the Jedi. Tup, the clone with the damaged chip, kills a Jedi while in a trance but dies despite attempts to stop the Kaminoans from killing him and removing the chip. Fives, another trooper, finds out the truth about the chips and tries to tell the Jedi, but they don't believe him and Palpatine fakes an assassination attempt to get Fives killed and keep him quiet. | |

Persona 3 has the remote control which Ikutsuki uses to reprogram Aigis into betraying the party, though with a bit of Heroic Willpower, she manages to shake it off. It manages to make a return in Persona 4: Arena and its sequel, Persona 4: Arena Ultimax, in which it's used instead on her sister, Labrys by Sho Minazuki. Fortunately, the second time around, she manages to overcome its control as well. | |

Warframe has two: The neural sentry in the Orokin Void and Orokin Derelict tilesets uses a machine that is forcibly rammed into the target's face to give the sentry dominion over them. It's all but outright stated the sentry is directly plugged into the subject's brain and that even if the device were removed non-lethally, the victim is braindead. The New War introduces the Narmer Veil, a device created by Ballas that is used to "induct" others into Narmer. While similar to the neural sentry (and likely derived from it, given that Ballas is an Orokin), the Veil controls its target by twisting their thoughts so that they want to be obedient to Ballas, and can be removed without killing the wearer. The main issue is that it is also an Explosive Leash. |

The Black Gears of Digimon Adventure. Everyone infected with these become Brainwashed and Crazy minions of Devimon. Digimon Adventure 02 has the Dark Rings made by Ken during his reign as the Digimon Emperor. Anyone captured by these becomes his slave, including partner Digimon like Greymon. However, they're only effective on Digimon from the Champion level below and do very little to control Ultimates, as seen with Andromon and especially SkullGreymon. Ken remedies this issue by putting three Dark Rings together to form a Dark Spiral, which is able to more easily control Ultimate levels. |

Marvel Universe: The Serpent Crown is a mind-control device used to channel the power of Set, an Elder God. Many superheroes have fought villains attempting to conquer the world in the thrall of Set. The Ringmaster, with his hypno-spiral top hat, has battled nearly every superhero in the Marvel Universe at one point or another. (And lost, as supervillains tend to do.) Issue #1 of The Awesome Slapstick has the Mediocritizer, which turns ordinary students into boring, unimaginative drones for the Overlord of Dimension X. Deadpool/Great Lakes Avengers Summer Fun crossover: Subverted. The story's mind-control device just makes its targets drunk. The Squadron Supreme limited series features the title heroes using a "behavior modification" device to brainwash convicted criminals (at first...). The ethical issues that arise are a source of friction for the team. The Squadron themselves have been mind-controlled often enough that it's been lampshaded both in comics (an issue of The Avengers claims that whenever they run into the Squadron, they assume that they're mind-controlled and about to attack until proven otherwise) and in games (the Marvel Saga RPG stats for Squadron members list susceptibility to mind-control powers among their weaknesses). |

The titular Hypno Ray is in fact just a harmless toy gun that Huey, Dewey and Louie pretend to hypnotize one another with... however, Donald, overhearing them, thinks that it's a real hypno gun. Donald is, in fact so convinced that the hypno gun works that it actually does work on him, even if it doesn't work on anyone else. A late fifties comic had Donald buy a pair of hypnotic glasses to try and get his nephews to obey him. |

Continuum: A chip exists in the future which allows remote control of a human or animal's brain. Travis had one when he was a Super-Soldier, debtors get them when they're enslaved to repay what they owe, Curtis makes bugs and an attack dog into his servants using them, while Liber8 uses them to turn various white collar criminals into bank robbers. | |

In Mass Effect 2, when bringing Shepard back to life, Miranda Lawson wanted to implant him/her with a control chip to keep him/her in line. However, the Illusive Man vetoed this idea, as he wanted Shepard back as s/he was before. By Mass Effect 3, she greatly regrets even wanting to do this, to the point of self-loathing, as not only would it have cost her someone who became a great friend, it also would have turned her into her father. | |

Mega Man (Ruby-Spears): Dr. Wily has a handheld reprogrammer that can also turn off robots. This gets a Call-Back in a later episode when Tar of the Lion Men uses it to reprogram Protoman, Roll, and the rest of Wily's robots to serve him. The mind-control chip that he plants on Mega Man along with the helmet he uses to give Mega Man commands. Dr. Light also creates his own version of the mind helmet to help free Mega Man from Wily's control. The control box that Wily uses to brainwash humans with Cold Steel's music. |

The advanced edition of FTL: Faster Than Light adds a mind control system to the base game, used to temporarily turn opponent crew into allies who will fight their former allies or repair systems on their former enemies' ship (except for Slugs, who are Immune to Mind Control). Mind-controlled enemies can also be teleported over to your ship, allowing for some creative cheesing. | |

Star Trek: Star Trek: The Original Series: In "Dagger of the Mind", a "hospital" basically zombifies people with a hypno-spinny-thingy. Trying to remember what happened to you, let alone tell others, causes increasing pain and eventually death. However, brainwashing in Trek usually takes the form of More than Mind Control, psychic manipulation, etc. Star Trek: The Next Generation: In "The Game", a simple Puzzle Game takes over the psyches of the crew. (Think of it as an allegory of what would happen if Angry Birds or Zuma was created with evil intent... if such a thought really is a stretch.) Fortunately, Wesley Crusher makes a guest appearance just in time to save the day. Star Trek: Voyager: Homaged in the Captain Proton holodeck program in "Thirty Days". The Twin Mistresses of Evil (played by the famous Delaney twins) have Buster Kincaid (played by Harry Kim) chained up so that they can use the terrible Brain Probe, which they promise will turn him into their groveling slave. Harry does not seem particularly adverse to the idea. |

Terra was a victim of this in Final Fantasy VI. To go into detail, sometime after she was kidnapped by the Empire as a child, Kefka (presumably with Emperor Gestahl's permission), developed a slave crown from Magitek technology which, as the name implies, sapped Terra's free will and emotions (there was also some cut dialogue that was still in the data script that indicated that Terra was an unwilling victim of this procedure). Afterwards, she burned fifty Imperial Soldiers alive all because Kefka told her to do so and she simply couldn't refuse due to the slave crown. | |

The Squadron Supreme limited series features the title heroes using a "behavior modification" device to brainwash convicted criminals (at first...). The ethical issues that arise are a source of friction for the team. The Squadron themselves have been mind-controlled often enough that it's been lampshaded both in comics (an issue of The Avengers claims that whenever they run into the Squadron, they assume that they're mind-controlled and about to attack until proven otherwise) and in games (the Marvel Saga RPG stats for Squadron members list susceptibility to mind-control powers among their weaknesses). | |

This is the Mad Hatter's schtick in Batman: The Animated Series. When he does it to mice in his introductory episode "Mad as a Hatter", it's cute and scientific. When he does it to a female co-worker named Alice on whom he has a huge unrequited crush, it becomes creepy and stalkerish, and when he accuses Batman of forcing him to use it after Batman calls him out on it, Batman has to defeat him in order to enable Alice's boyfriend to free her. | |

Command & Conquer: Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2 features mind control with Yuri and more elaborately in the Yuri's Revenge expansion pack. Units change side (and colour) and start fighting against you so long the mind control guys are alive and not controlling someone else instead. Furthermore there are two kinds of mind control: direct, puppet-master mind control that involves psychic-capable units (like the Psi-Corps Trooper, Yuri Clone or Mastermind Tank) temporarily commandeering others and generalised broadcasting mind control, beginning with the Psychic Beacon (which can control a city), advancing to the Psychic Amplifier (which can reach a whole country) and culminating in the Psychic Dominator doomsday devices that can, at peak strength, control whole continents and would have won the game for Yuri half a minute into the opening cinematic if not for both a lucky Harrier fighter crashing into the Alcatraz Dominator power source and Einstein conveniently pulling a functional time machine pretty much from hammerspace. The Mental Omega Game Mod brings back the Psychic Beacon, Amplifier and Dominator as part of the Epsilon Army (the mod's version of Yuri's faction from Yuri's Revenge), while also taking things even further with the titular Mental Omega Device, which can reach the entire planet at once and thus serves as Epsilon's Instant-Win Condition should they get it online. Command & Conquer: Tiberium Wars feature the Scrin Mastermind, an alien with the ability to take over units and buildings in a similar manner to Yuri. |

In EverQuest, a few classes (mostly enchanters and bards) have the ability to charm any NPC; the spell is useful but its duration is random but usually short. Enchanters NPC can even charm players during combat. There is also a (very rare) item called 'puppet strings' that will allow its user to have the same charming ability as enchanters. | |

The DCU: A Justice League of America issue in the Bronze Age has a scientist invent a "re-memory" ray gun — it causes its targets to remember making decisions favorable to the wielder of the device. It's amazingly convenient — he doesn't even have to tell them what he wants, they just come up with something on their own. Naturally, he does just what you would do with such power: steal the plankton from Earth's oceans and sell it to an alien who just happens to pop into his lab looking for a solution to his world's environmental problems. Hey, The '70s, man... Legends of the Dead Earth: In Batman Annual #20, the children of New Gotham are implanted with a mind control chip by the City Controllers once they reach a certain age. The Batman cyborg who protects the city prevents this from being done to three children. Supergirl: In "The Super-Steed of Steel", a villain called Vostar uses a "mental command helmet" to influence Comet the Super-Horse's emotions and force him to do his bidding. Superman: A post-Woodstock adventure has him reporting on a series of rock concerts. Mass violence breaks out at show after show, seemingly prompted by the lyrics. It turns out that a villain is using a mind-control device behind the scenes. Wonder Woman (1942): Before having its powers redefined and limited to truth-telling, Wonder Woman's lasso used to be able to force any wrapped in it to obey the one holding it, which was used against Diana on multiple occasions. |

Magic: The Gathering's Mindslaver, in the sense that you have entire control over what your opponent would do for their turn. Indeed there's a popular deck that wins by being able to use mindslaver on every turn to prevent your opponent from being able to do anything. Also various means of controlling your opponent's creatures, such as Helm of Possession. |

SpongeBob SquarePants: In his debut episode, Plankton enters SpongeBob's head and implants his brain with a mind-control device to make him steal a Krabby Patty. It almost works, despite SpongeBob's constant attempts to resist. Plankton succeeds in even more spectacular fashion in The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie, in which he gives away mind-control devices disguised as Chum Bucket helmets and brainwashes the entire town. His control is broken by means of The Power of Rock. Yes, it is awesome. He also does the Mind-Control-Shampoo-Gambit (with conditioner) on Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy, trying to get them to discredit the Krusty Krab. |

Eclipse Phase has a particularly insidious variety, commonly referred to as 'basilisk hacks'. Named for the mythological basilisk as they are usually vision-based, these hacks essentially play off how the brain is 'wired', causing it to 'execute' the encoded payload; this can be as simple as the classic example of Subliminal Seduction, or it can completely rewrite the victim's mind and personality, potentially turning them into a Manchurian Agent. Given the levels of complexity involved, basilisk hacks are almost exclusively the realm of the TITAN A.I.s, which generally means they also do unspeakable things to the victims. The only way to effectively counter them is to either completely block out the pattern (i.e., blind or deafen yourself) or somehow distort the pattern by reducing image/audio quality. | |

Doctor Who: Several different varieties turned up during the original run; sometimes it was even the Doctor himself using them. "Rise of the Cybermen"/"The Age of Steel": The Cybus Industries earpods worn by most people in the Alternate Universe, which when activated make them calmly march into factories to be cyber-converted. "The Sound of Drums"/"Last of the Time Lords": The Archangel network of satellites, which broadcast a signal that causes most of humanity to trust the Master's human alias, and later to cow most resistance. |

Digimon Adventure 02 has the Dark Rings made by Ken during his reign as the Digimon Emperor. Anyone captured by these becomes his slave, including partner Digimon like Greymon. However, they're only effective on Digimon from the Champion level below and do very little to control Ultimates, as seen with Andromon and especially SkullGreymon. Ken remedies this issue by putting three Dark Rings together to form a Dark Spiral, which is able to more easily control Ultimate levels. | |

Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2 features mind control with Yuri and more elaborately in the Yuri's Revenge expansion pack. Units change side (and colour) and start fighting against you so long the mind control guys are alive and not controlling someone else instead. Furthermore there are two kinds of mind control: direct, puppet-master mind control that involves psychic-capable units (like the Psi-Corps Trooper, Yuri Clone or Mastermind Tank) temporarily commandeering others and generalised broadcasting mind control, beginning with the Psychic Beacon (which can control a city), advancing to the Psychic Amplifier (which can reach a whole country) and culminating in the Psychic Dominator doomsday devices that can, at peak strength, control whole continents and would have won the game for Yuri half a minute into the opening cinematic if not for both a lucky Harrier fighter crashing into the Alcatraz Dominator power source and Einstein conveniently pulling a functional time machine pretty much from hammerspace. The Mental Omega Game Mod brings back the Psychic Beacon, Amplifier and Dominator as part of the Epsilon Army (the mod's version of Yuri's faction from Yuri's Revenge), while also taking things even further with the titular Mental Omega Device, which can reach the entire planet at once and thus serves as Epsilon's Instant-Win Condition should they get it online. |

The Codename: Kids Next Door episode "Operation: L.I.Z.Z.I.E." has Lizzie using a "boyfriend helmet" called the Yes-Dear 5000, which fuses with the victim's brain if worn long enough, to make Numbah One her boyfriend. And the best part? It's sold as a toy! The helmet appears again in "Operation: S.N.O.W.I.N.G.", where Jimmy reconfigures it into a "girlfriend helmet" to make Lizzie his queen. |

In the episode "Good Dog, McLeish" of Pound Puppies (2010), Strudel uses a pair of glasses to convince the head dog catcher to sign for a package the Pound Puppies wanted to use to get an adoptee to his person in Milwaukee. The glasses work, but not in the way she hoped. | |

In End of Watch, the villain uses handheld game consoles to take control of people's minds through a pre-loaded game whose demo screen (which already has a mildly hypnotic effect on some people) is modified to become very hypnotic, allowing him to manipulate their thoughts or even take over their minds. | |

The Avengers (1960s) has an episode where the villain who has befriended Emma Peel, offers her a watch as a gift. Unfortunately it essentially turns her into a puppet. It is a relatively dark episode since the villain poses as her friend and there is a hint that Emma is attracted to him. | |

Quack Pack: Huey Duck sets off for the dentist but instead winds up being a test subject for an evil scientist, who accidentally equips Huey with the bio-remote which the Big Bad needs to use to conquer the world. As the headgear gives Huey the near-infinite power of mind control, Huey becomes mad with power and makes himself emperor of the world by forcing the populace to worship him, but realizes that he's still miserable. | |

The Halloween Unspectacular series has a few examples: The titular object in "Remy's Ring", which gives Remy the power to turn other people into his puppets. In "Karma Punishment", Gaz gains possession of a machine which allows her to control people like video game characters. The seventh Story Arc ultimately reveals that PURITY's latest plan involves brain implants in all members of the U.S. military that make them drones. It's specifically titled in-universe after Order 66 by a pop-culture obsessed villain. |

The Pieces of Eden from the Assassin's Creed series seem to have this among their powers. The known backstory at one point states that a great deal of the human capacity for faith is the result of a vulnerability to a specific form of mind control engineered into the species. One the one hand, this didn't entirely take; on the other, it took too well by making humans potentially capable of actual Precursor-physics-defying miracles. This is one of the contributing factors to the opaqueness of history in the 'verse. | |
