What about a Detect Thoughts type ability?
Dominance : Your aura are dominating. Poeple would obey you sooner.

Ok. This is more of a future goal than anything else, but, if we get the Detect Thoughts first (then we can use words to convince people to do things a little bit more easily, like going into a back ally with us  ;)), then the Dominating Aura (make people want to do what we say more, and combined with mind reading, we use little to no effort in getting what we want from the weak willed, which will be simple to detect because of their THOUGHTS), and then upgrade our mind reading to see what the persons mind is planing on doing (like their movements, whether subconscious or conscious) we will be invincible in a one on one fight.

The first level of detect thoughts would be detect feelings from weak willed
The first level of dominance would be some small obdience bonus on weak willed

(Your grunts are weak willed. Kain, Abel and the other hunters are Tier II )

In that case, I am voting for dominance.

The end level of Detect Thoughts is to know everything from a person when you want it.  :P
The end level of Dominance is, that heros will be your slaves, when they stay too long near to you.

Dominance, by far. Its strategically advantageous to gradual corrupt the town, rather than get some fancy attack or higher strength at this point.

GAME OF SUBTERFUGE AND GUILE... Once we've gotten rid of the hunters, THEN we can start the chaos.

I wonder... Dragor, once we're corrupt enough can we gain the ability to corrupt sentients/beasts and turn them into our underlings? Not just followers, but mutated, dark beings to do our bidding.

That'd be quite interesting ;)

Though, of course, having to rely on intimidating, bribing and recruiting human and other beings is also very dynamic as it leaves room for politics and all sorts of random stuff.

Yep, this is an automatic ability. You don't need to channel souls for it, you just only need an enough corrupted body.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

You feel a sudden stab in your back. You moan quietly and stumble out of this wagon. What was that?

A kid looks at you and his eyes are bulging a little. You get a sudden idea.
"Pick up that stone."
"Why?"
"Do it."
He picks up the stone and is looking at you... Is he waiting for more orders? ... Excellent. You start to wander around the market. You smirk a little bit, the weak willed are now slaves... Somehow. You know, that they wouldn't do anything that is against their ethics or against their survival instinct.

What now?

GOOD.

Now our willful domination of the hunters/Cain/Abel will go easier, as we'll be using our power to play off of their natural inclinations and fears.

They are Tier II.

They are not affected by your dominance.  :P

Also...

Would be too easy.

And you can just go rampage a bandit lair and use their pity souls to boost up your power.  :P
