Could we get an echo about using Turn Undead on a PC's controlled Undead?

I used Turn Undead on a greyish skeleton I had thought wandered outside of Feebovs as it was standing on the road unattended. I didn't realize I was on stun so it stunned instead of killed it. I turned off killmode stun and tried to kill it and I got the response: You must MURDER a charmed creature.

Had I known it was player-owned I would have ignored it even though it's unattended.

Actually, I think you've misinterpreted what happened. When using killmode stun, a turn attempt can actually let you take control of your undead target. When you tried to kill it after your turn attempt, it told you you have to murder it because it's your minion. I went and reenacted the situation on a completely unclaimed skeleton.

Your killmode is: stun
You realise a greyish skeleton is close to dying and pull your blow.
Waves of your faith crash over a greyish skeleton.
A greyish skeleton is stunned, but will probably recover.
A greyish skeleton now follows you.
Your killmode is: kill
You must MURDER a charmed creature.

The reason you didn't get a special echo when you tried to turn that skeleton is because it wasn't charmed until you did so.

Ah, good point. I forget even though I'm good aligned that they can be rebuked. Thanks for pointing it out.
