Do mindflayer mindblasts affect constructs and undead?

Wouldn't that be awfully messy?

What does he care? He's an illithid. Those guys are a pain to clean up after at parties too.

I think you are thinking that "mind blast" means "blasting a mind" rather than "blasting with a mind". If you use the second meaning, it's no longer a funny comment, right?

I dunno, I think 'mind affecting effect' is pretty funny all on its own!


glass.

Heh... maybe illithids are called mind-flayers because they flay people with their minds? And what does that say about say, Mindwipe?

Umm.. it wipes you with its mind? I give up.

I always thought they were called mind flayers because they flayed your mind, literally.. with tentacles and such... after they used their non-mind-affecting mind blast on you (and your mind).

A brain collector collects you with its brain.

Nope. Two similar sounding phrases don't have to mean exactly the same thing. A two-weapon fighter is someone who fights using two weapons. A gnoll fighter can be a gnoll that fights or someone who fights gnolls, not someone who fights using a gnoll.

Right. So, does a mind flayer flay you with its mind, or does it flay your mind? Does its mindblast blast you with its mind, or does it blast your mind?

1) Both.
2) I think the second.

I've been told I'm a black hole as far as humor goes...
