    1. Description

When the very powerful mind blank spell is cast, the recipient is totally protected from all devices and/or spells which detect, influence, or read emotions and/or thoughts. Protection includes augury, charm, command, confusion, divination, empathy (all forms), ESP, fear, feeblemind, mass suggestion, phantasmal killer, possession, rulership, soul trapping, suggestion, and telepathy. Cloaking protection also extends to prevention of discovery or information gathering by crystal balls or other scrying devices, clairoudience, clairvoyance, communing, contacting other planes, or wish-related methods (wishing, limited wish, alter reailty). Of course, exceedingly powerful deities would be able to penetrate the spell's powers. Note that this spell also protects from psionic-related detection and/or influence such as domination (or mass domination), hypnosis, invisibility (the psionic sort is mind related), and precognition, plus those powers which are already covered as spells.
