Power Descriptors

The descriptors that apply to powers are acid, cold, death, electricity, evil, fire, force, formbound, good, language-dependent, light, mind-affecting, network, and sonic.

Most of these descriptors have no game effect by themselves, but they govern how the power interacts with other powers, with spells, with special abilities, with unusual creatures, with alignment, and so on.

A language-dependent power uses intelligible language as a medium.

A mind-affecting power works only against creatures with an Intelligence score of 1 or higher.
