@mikemearls An Elder Brain devours the Brain of an inert clone of someone, does it gain the memories of the person?

I wouldn't allow it in my game – I'd rule memories travel with souls, rather than are stored via biological process. Brain + soul = memories https://t.co/qVfVwzQR4l

But why? The point of the Clone spell is to maintain the memories of the character at the time of the sample harvesting If you look at the spell, it specifies the clone is inert until the character's soul enters it, keeps all memories
