|skill = Lifevision
|description = Your perception is vast

{{Anchor|Dictate}}
{{Skill_detail
|skill = Dictate
|description = Dictate maladies in your opponent
|syntax = DICTATE <affliction> <target>
|detail = Blood cost: 90 per dictation
Dictations are the method by which you can punish your foe with a variety of mental maladies,
allowing you to vanquish them more easily.
All dictations may be performed off balance providing you are not fallen on the ground, allowing
you to utilise a balance-based attack and then instill an affliction.
While dictating is possible in many situations where normally you'd normally be unable to act, it
is however difficult to do so while fallen and afflicted by stupidity, or while transfixed.
You will learn new dictations as you progress in this skill, and you can type AFFLICTION <name> to
learn more about what an affliction does.

{{Anchor|Psycombat}}
{{Skill_detail
|skill = Psycombat
|description = Test your mind against another's
|syntax = PSYCHALLENGE <player>
|detail = Psychic combat is a telepathic battle between two players where the goal is to crumple
your opponent's mind. There is no penalty for losing, however those with deathsight will feel the
moment a game is decided. There are only seven commands associated with psychic combat that may be
used, and when you accept you will be transported to a special location out of harm's way. Most
other commands will not work until the game is complete.
You can do the following in psychic combat:
PSY BLAST:
Blast your opponent's mind and attack their mental fortitude.
PSY BARRIER:
Erect a barrier that protects your mind from psychic blasts.
PSY WHIP:
Tear away your opponent's mental barrier if they have one.
PSY SURGE:
If your opponent has less than half of their mental energy, you can end the match in a surge of
psychic power. This is costly to perform and could result in your own loss if misjudged.
PSY PROBE:
Use your mind to determine your opponent's mental energy.
PSY MEDITATE:
Meditate your mind in order to recover your mental energy. This is a slow process.
PSY ESCAPE:
This takes some time, during which you may not do anything else. Once the ability is successful, an
exit will open up, allowing you to escape.
