So in this play through (patch 7) I played a Barbarian. As he's of a bit lower than average intelligence, great physique, somewhat charismatic (12) and wise (12) he did not have confidence in his ability to outsmart his adversaries. So he lives by enduring pain and using intimidation to achieve his goals - while among friends he trusts them and backs off in face of trying to persuade them into doing things they don't want to do (like talk about a certain faith or artifact).
This also means he doesn't believe in this Chosen power. He's not a great mindbender and never will be - so he abstains from trying to control others and rely on their own motivation and his confidence in being able to handle any situation with physical means.
He never encounters the Chosen dreams and as such a large part of the story goes untold.
It might be worth it to allow some temptatious dream that nudges him into believing there's power in mindbending others and that this vision wants to help him achieve that power - possibly by befriending him.
