Sense
Syntax:	MIND SENSE <target>
Description:	With this ability, you are able to seek out the mind of another player, gaining knowledge of his physical location.

Lock
Syntax:	MIND LOCK <target> MIND CEASE
Description:	This is the ability that most of the Telepathic arts are focused around. It is the skill of breaking down the barriers of resistance in another person and locking your mind to his. The more mana your intended target has, the greater his resistance will be and the longer the locking will take. The player must be in the same area as you, for even your powerful mind has its limits.

Dissolve
Syntax:	MIND DISSOLVE
Description:	This simply dissolves your mind lock with a player.

Glance
Syntax:	MIND GLANCE
Description:	This allows you to look through the eyes of the player you have locked minds with.

Telesense
Syntax:	MIND TELESENSE
Description:	Due to your heightened telepathic awareness, you are able to, at the cost of a small mana drain, detect attempts to lock your mind.

Fear
Syntax:	MIND FEAR
Description:	With this ability, you are able to throw the mind of a locked player into a state of irrational fear.

Throw
Syntax:	MIND THROW <direction>
Description:	As you learn to better control the mind of a locked player, you gain some control over their actions. This is the first of them. You are able to make the player's mind try to walk its body in the direction of your choice.

Hallucinate
Syntax:	MIND HALLUCINATE <text>
Description:	You are able to convince a target that he has seen whatever text you send to his mind. Note: You can add new lines into your hallucination by using the tag $nl within the text, but be warned that you can use a maximum of two.

Syntax:	MIND PARALYSE
Description:	This ability temporarily rewires the mind of a locked player, preventing the player from moving. In effect, the player is paralysed.

Fullsense
Syntax:	FULLSENSE
Description:	By sending out an invisible telepathic web, you can detect all minds within your local area.

Confuse
Syntax:	MIND CONFUSE
Description:	By directing a powerful pulse of telepathic energy into the mind of a locked player, you are able to short-circuit his mental processes, causing him to become confused when doing certain common actions.

Suffuse
Syntax:	MIND SUFFUSE
Description:	Not all of the Telepathic arts are concerned with harming your target. This is one that is not. What it does is take some of your considerable mental strength and give it to the player you have mind locked, albeit with some loss due to the energy it takes to transfer the mana over the telepathic link.

Drain
Syntax:	MIND DRAIN
Description:	Almost the reverse of Suffuse, this drains mental strength from your target and bestows it upon you.

Listen
Syntax:	MIND LISTEN MIND UNLISTEN
Description:	You are now able to direct audio sensory input to the mindlocked player over the telepathic link to you. MIND UNLISTEN will stop this ability. Note that due to the ongoing effort required to maintain this ability, there is a constant loss of mental strength.

Divine

Description:	Having gained a certain level of competence in the art of Telepathy, you can now gain exact knowledge of the physical and mental state of a player you have locked minds with.

Terror

Description:	This will isolate a mind locked player from all communication coming to him from outside his location.

Link

Description:	By opening up a one-way channel to another telepath, you are able to lend him some of your mental strength, allowing him to perform abilities that would not otherwise be possible, due to the incredible strength of mind needed.

Psycombat
Syntax:	{{{syntax}}}
Description:	Psychic combat is initiated by challenge. A player challenges another player (PSYCHALLENGE <PLAYER>). The other player has 60 seconds to respond with PSYACCEPT <PLAYER> or the challenge will run out. Immediately after a player accepts a challenge, the players will be transported to separate rooms. There are only seven commands associated with psychic combat that may be used in these rooms, and most normal commands will not work. The psychic combat commands are PSY BLAST Using your mental powers, you blast out at your opponent, attacking his mana. PSY BARRIER At the expense of some mana, this protects you against Psy Blast. PSY WHIP You lash out with your psychic powers to tear away your opponent's Psychic Barrier. PSY SURGE This will end the battle, if successful. It takes a great deal of your mana, but if your opponent is on less than half, you will be the victor. PSY PROBE You use some mental energy to discover your opponent's mana level. PSY MEDITATE/MED This allows you to regain mana, albeit slowly. PSY ESCAPE This takes a long time to work, during which you may not do anything else. After the time is up, exits will open from the psychic combat rooms, affording you escape.

Pacify
Syntax:	MIND PACIFY
Description:	By drawing a soft cloak of telepathic power over the mind of a locked player, you are able to make offensive actions abhorrent to him. This will last for a short, random amount of time, or until an offensive act is directed at him.

Empathy
Syntax:	MIND EMPATHY MIND UNEMPATHY
Description:	This ability will channel much damage done to a locked player over the telepathic link to you. Be careful with it though, for it is possible to die if too much damage is inflicted upon you via the telepathic link. This ability costs a regular drain of mental power.

Clarity
Syntax:	CLARITY
Description:	Clarity of mind is a defence against a weakened psyche. Your training has also allowed you to better control your own mental processes and you gain a greater level of willpower regeneration simply by having this skill.

Stupidity

Description:	By casting a net of psychic energy over your opponent's mind, you will cause his mind to occasionally misfire and do something entirely different from what was intended.

Description:	Afflict your foe with indifference.

Hypersense
Syntax:	HYPERSENSE ON/OFF

Amnesia
Syntax:	MIND AMNESIA
Description:	A simple-sounding, though extremely effective ability, this allows you to cause short-term amnesia in your locked player. He will simply fail to execute the next action he attempts, as he will forget what he is doing before he manages to do it.

Clairvoyance
Syntax:	{{{syntax}}}
Description:	This is a passive skill that will allow you to use certain telepathic abilities while off balance. Of course, there is a greater use of equilibrium when using a telepathic ability this way. Skills which may be used in this way are: Amnesia, Pacify, Epilepsy, Confuse, Paralyse, Stupidity, Indifference and Scythe.

Barrier
Syntax:	MIND BARRIER MIND UNBARRIER
Description:	You are now able to protect a locked player against other telepathic attempts to control him by wrapping your mind around his.

Scan
Syntax:	MIND SCAN
Description:	An improvement on Divine, this will allow you to see considerably more information about the locked player.

Crush
Syntax:	MIND CRUSH
Description:	This ability sends a crushing wave of mental energy at the target, doing both physical and mental damage. The target must be in the same area.

Blank
Syntax:	MIND BLANK
Description:	While under the influence of a mindlock, this affliction cannot be healed, and will prevent half of all targeted attacks from being observed as to which limb has been targetted.

Strip
Syntax:	MIND STRIP
Description:	Your mental prowess is such that you may coax your opponent into relaxing his defences.

Sapience
Syntax:	MIND SAPIENCE UNWATCH
Description:	By essentially tapping into a locked player's cortex, you are able to see anything the player does.

Kainet
Syntax:	MIND KAINET ON/OFF

Batter
Syntax:	MIND BATTER <target>
Description:	This powerful telepathic attack will instantly give your unlucky target stupidity, epilepsy, and dizziness.

Radiance
Syntax:	MIND RADIANCE
Description:	The most powerful attack a telepath has, this allows you to build up an awesome amount of telepathic power, then release it to your hapless victim, killing him instantly. It takes some time to build up, during which you may do nothing else. Further, you may not execute this ability if your target is in the same location as you. Your concentration will also be broken if your target moves into your location.

Mindprints
Syntax:	MIND PRINT MINDPRINTS FORGET <player>
Description:	Once you have locked minds with a player, you are able to gain intimate knowledge of his mind, making it easier to gain a mind lock in the future. However, due to the incredible complexity of the mind, you may only hold five mindprints at once. MIND PRINT will take a mindprint of the player you have locked. MINDPRINTS will list whom you have mindprints of, and FORGET will remove a player from your list, allowing you to MINDPRINT a new player.
