Same superpower that Terry Pratchett had, obviously.

Abit late to the party; but I'm agreeing with the term Compulsion.

Re: Name for this Superpower?
I would call it perception manipulation for you are not altering the environment but instead creating false sensory data that change how someone perceives reality.

I'm liking Perception Shift, although "Reality Blinder" and "Transpose Reaction" sound kinda cool, too.

I've heard the power to have everyone treat what you do/say as though it's normal get called 'Universal Acceptance'. I do like the name 'Perception Manipulation' for general or more varied use though.

Re: Name for this Superpower?
Reminds me of something from what I think was a Larry Niven novel. The main character had a mild telepathic ability, he didn't initially know what it was or how it worked. Any time he was nervous or afraid people would just forget he was there. Eventually during the story he lost his temper and reversed his power, which essentially made him the centre of the targets universe.
The eventual in-story explanation involved eye dilation and shrinking, and how that effects the mind. Pupil dilation causing excitement, fear, interest, while pupil shrinking caused loss of interest. The book explained it better.
The Google definition of Dilation:
A dilation is a transformation (notation ) that produces an image that is the same shape as the original, but is a different size. A dilation stretches or shrinks the original figure. The description of a dilation includes the scale factor (or ratio) and the center of the dilation.
So for naming your power, how about something like Sense Dilation, Psi Dilation, or simply Dilation?
