Provided that a character is smart enough and manipulative enough, they can get the people around them to do just about anything. Sometimes this can be accomplished by the power of charisma, but other times it needs to be perpetrated through an elaborate scheme. This scheme takes into account everything that [[The Chessmaster]] (as well as the viewer) knows about the characters being manipulated, and uses it against them. The [[Unwitting Pawn|patsies]] in this scheme only act and respond as their own predictability dictates and all the pieces fall into place.
