Message: <blockquote data-quote="Creeping Death" data-source="post: 4486614" data-attributes="member: 253">Mindbender's ability to dominate seems more conscious than the Thrallherd's ability to summon thralls and believers.Compare prerequisites.  SkillsMindbender: Bluff, Diplomacy, Intimidate, Sense motiveThrallherd  : Diplomacy, Knowledge (psionics)Feats:Mindbender: noneThrallherd  : Inquisiter - know if someone is lying, spend focus to gain bonus to sense motive.Powers:Mindbender: charm person caster level 5th.Thrallherd  : mindlink, manifester level 5th.All mind link does is allow you to telepathically communicate with someone.  You have to pay extra on an unwilling subject, and you can not influence the subject in any way.Then look at the powers, mindbender gets skill boost to bluff,intimidate, etc etc.  Mindbender gets eternal charm and automatically dominate a target of his choice for 24 hours.  Thrallherd just gets better at manifesting dominate but does not get this free absolute dominate.  Mindbender does eventually get a thrall but not believers.   Mindbender chooses his thrall and those subject to eternal charm, while the Thrallherd doesn't really get a choice outside of taking levels in Thrallherd.  It is clear from this that mindbender is geared toward non-good while thrallherd is a bit more vague and open, thus allowing good, neutral, or evil characters.</blockquote>
