Illithid Mind Blast
Anyone caught in the Mind Blast Cone must make a Will save (DC 12 + ((shifter levels + druid levels) / 2) + wisdom modifier (+ 3 for pure shifters), or be stunned for 1d4 rounds. If the target is already stunned, deals 1d6 points of damage per 2 shifter levels (+5d6 additional damage for pure shifter, maximum 20d6).

How it works
- Everyone in a 15 metre cone in front of the creature must pass a Will save or be stunned.
- The save DC is 10 + half the creature's levels + its Wisdom modifier.
- The first blast only stuns, on a failed Will save against mind spells. A blast that hits someone already stunned by one does damage instead: 1d6 per 2 hit dice of the caster.
- A Shifter caster does 1d6 per 2 Shifter levels instead, +5d6 from Shifter level 30.
- Mind flayers and illithids are immune to it. The caster is never caught by it.
