Telepathy is the ability to contact other minds directly. In rudimentary forms, it allows the communication of feelings and emotion; in advanced forms it allows the transfer of information.
Shield
All telepathically able sophonts learn how to create a mental shield which protects the mind against unwanted telepathic interference. Such a shield is automatically in force at all times and requires no effort to maintain.
Artificial psionic shields can be purchased; they are clumsy helmetlike devices which function in much the same manner.
Life Detection
The most elementary form of telepathy is the ability to detect the presence of other minds.
Telempathy
The communication of emotions and basic feelings is accomplished by telempathy.
Telempathy also allows the emotions and feelings of others to be read by a psi.
Read Surface Thoughts
The most commonly known feature of telepathy is the ability to read the thoughts of other individuals.
Send Thoughts
Complementary to the ability to read surface thoughts is the ability to send thoughts to others.
Probe
The application of great Psionic Strength will enable a telepath to delve deep into the mind of a subject and then to read their innermost thoughts.
Assault
Violence may be dealt by a telepath.
