Mind Flayer

Mind Flayers were a species that existed in one universe.

Powers and abilities

Mind Flayers possessed the ability to read minds to some degree. They were also able to hypnotize and entrance people.

One Mind Flayer, Cardinal Dracula, possessed a larger set of powers; however, he may have also been a vampire. It is therefore impossible to determine whether all Mind Flayers are capable of the cardinal's powers, or if some of those powers can be attributed to his vampirism.
