Oooh ESE!Neri  :-D

BUT what if an imperio'ed wizard imperio'ed LV, would he be a servant
to himself? Doesn't sound in character at all! No you need a negative
rule to exclude LV himself and possibly some of his closest
henchpeople because they might be doing other things with which this
process could interfere. Also could do with an end process or ruling
his evil empire could be a bit dull and repetitive.

Otherwise this is all looking very plausible to me!
