Nice move there Jor... I mean Tekmage XD.

I don't know but Craigs apology doesn't sound that honest to me.
He usually has more insight than he's showing.

I need to have evil Enchanters do this more often.

[edit]Specifically, I mean having hostages attack the heroes, not having them sing show tunes in drag.[/edit]

Ditto. I do find it very telling of how disturbed Jordan truly is that she seems to be enjoying herself immensely.

It's the facial expression. I didn't notice how insincere it looked till I was almost done, unfortunately.

I think it's plenty sincere. At least in the 'oh man, someone's going to yell at me about this one' sort of sincere.

why not both?
also, the choice of the word (enchantress) suggests dnd. with healing magic, resurrections, and grappling rules these probably won't be an issue...
... except for the extremely likely case where the PCs just slaughter them all, loot the corpses, and leave them to rot there... or freaking out when the enchantress starts laughing and telling them they just beheaded the person they were there to rescue and instead of a resurrection they start doing a cover up. or maybe the person doesn't want to resurrect, that is supposedly common with people who went to heaven

I was using "Enchanter" as a catch-all for people with mind control abilities. I actually have done it in D&D, but it would probably work better in Shadowrun or the World of Darkness, where resurrection magic isn't really a thing.

which is a thing exclusive to dnd. no other setting uses the word enchanter to mean that
