Re: Undead and Concentration Checks
Short answer: Yes.
Longish answer: Only if it's not mindless. So, say, a vampire is subject to concentration checks. Mostly Con doesn't matter to an undead because they have immunities, however, anything related to Con that isn't mentioned under those immunities is as normal.Last edited by Jallorn; 2010-12-30 at 08:05 AM.

Re: Undead and Concentration Checks
Yes. To do so, such creatures add their Charisma modifiers to the check.

Re: Undead and Concentration Checks
If by “Such Creatures” you mean Undead, and not creatures with no Constitution in general. Substituting Charisma modifier for Constitution is a specific ability of the undead type. Other creatures without Constitution scores, such as Constructs would make Concentration checks without a +0 Con modifier.
I don’t see anything that says mindless creatures cannot make Concentration checks. Of course, in most cases, mindless creatures cannot take actions that would require Concentration checks. But if something were to happen that allowed the creature to do so, they would be allowed to make an untrained Concentration check, just like they can make any other untrained checks. (Mindless creatures get no skill points, so all skill checks they make are untrained.)The Future just ain’t what it used to be.
