The love-scorned soul targets one creature that it can see and that can see it. The creature must make a DC 16 saving throw or become  charmed  by the love-scorned soul for the next 24 hours. While the effect lasts, it believes that its loved ones are hated enemies and will attempt to harm them by whatever means it has at its disposal.

A creature that succeeds at a DC 16  Charisma  ( Persuasion ) check can force the  charmed  creature to make another saving throw at the end of its turn.  Dispel magic  or  remove curse  can also end the effect. \n'b'  Tactics \n'b' A love-scorned soul often chooses a particular individual or a couple to be the object of its malicious attention. It then shadows its targets, waiting for the best moment to strike. When possible, it traps the lovers together, using its hateful gaze to drive them to destroy one another. Alternatively, the love-scorned soul might employ its gaze against an individual, even retreating afterwards to fool its victim into believing that the spirit has been defeated. The target then \xe2\x80\x98escapes\xe2\x80\x99 and returns to their loved ones, but only then \xe2\x80\x98realizes\xe2\x80\x99 that they are hated enemies instead. Once the victims have done as much damage to their beloved as possible, the love-scorned soul will use its draining touch to finish off the heartbroken victim. \n'b' Description \n'b' These sad creatures are the undead remains of particularly strong-willed people who died tragically because of their love for another. A woman slain en route to the altar, a man who fell from his bedroom window after finding his lover in the arms of another, victims of the Unhallowed monster known as the False Lover (see page 186) \xe2\x80\x93 any of these might return as a love-scorned soul. Embittered and warped by their deaths, love-scorned souls appear as spectral versions of their former lives, their once happy features twisted by sorrow, anger, despair, and hatred. Denied love as mortals, they now exist only to crush and hurt the living.'
