If you are charmed or dominated and you quaff a word of recall, something like this happens.

You quaff a corked vial of word of recall.
What? And leave your beloved master?

You do not have that potion.

It would be lovely if the code could check for charm before the potion is wasted, and prevent it from being consumed instead of preventing it from working.

Edit: PS, this problem manifests with taunt as well.

This would be a waste of an Imm's time.

Not only that, but it is actually miserable RP. The loss of a vial is the least that should happen when you so blatantly try to ignore that you have been hit with the charm spell. I get that your situation might've been more complex, but honestly, spamming all those commands hardly saved you.

Don't try to cheat charm person and the problem goes away.

I could see some point to it checking for taunt because mid-battle it might be hard to tell if your taunted at the moment or not, but still not a huge issue.

You used to be able to word of recall from a charmer, but people weren't RP their charm and so it was changed so that people are more forced to RP their charm.

Can you not recall out of taunt?

Nope. Taunt is like BoG nimbus, nothing you can do for 1 tick or so. So you'd better have some way to go ethereal handy and then quaff word the moment taunt wears off. :P

You cannot eat herbs while taunted either.

Basically, don't cheat out the RP and you won't waste vials.
