(I am not getting into which is better, and I ask nobody else to, either. I'm just saying, there are/were different design guidelines.)In Heroes of Horror, as written, my intent was as I spelled out in the prior post. But in a more DM-fiat-style game--or in a 3e campaign where I trust the DM's judgment--how I actually prefer the power function is this:If the immunity to fear and/or mind-affcting effects is innate to the creature, such as with undead, this power will not function against it.If the immunity is not innate--is due to a class feature (paladin), spell (mind blank), magic item, or so forth--then this ability functions as written.But again, that's the "author's note" version, not the as-written version. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" /></blockquote>
