Sleep inducement is a super-power. It represents an individual's ability to put others to sleep using the powers of their mind. Sure, I know. There are PLENTY of people out there that can accomplish this without having the benefit of some fancy shmancy mental powers. We call those people history teachers. Some individuals may possess this power through mystical means, or it may be a product of their birth. Those who possess strong willpower or some form of psychic or mystical immunity may be able to resist the effects of this power.
In the 2013 novel Doctor Sleep, a character named Snakebite Andi possesses the ability to render people unconscious. In the movie adaptation however, this ability was expanded to include mental dominance.
