|syntax = MIND SENSE <target><br/>

|description = With this ability, you are able to seek out the mind of another player, gaining knowledge of his physical location. There is no equilibrium or balance cost to perform this.

|syntax = MIND LOCK <target><br/>

MIND CEASE

|description = Telepathy is a powerful ability, but it all begins by forming a mental lock with your subject first. Mind locks take time to form as you break down the mental barriers of their subconscious, however the more adept you are at telepathy, the faster you will be able to penetrate their mind. Once you have  

locked minds, a mental battle will begin as you attempt to hold control of your subject. The less willpower you have compared to your subject, the more likely you will be detected and ejected from his mind.

The willpower cost of maintaining a mind lock is reduced when in the same location and elevation as your target.

|description = Should you have a mind lock already, this skill will allow you to dissolve it.

|description = Glance through the eyes of your target that you have locked minds with, allowing you to see their location as though you were there yourself.

|syntax = TELESENSE <ON|OFF>

|description = Due to your heightened telepathic awareness, you are able to, at the cost of a small mana drain, detect telepathic energy in the area.

|description = By coaxing the motor cortex, you can have the target of your mind lock walk unsteadily in a direction of your choice.

|description = By sending out an invisible telepathic web, you can quicky detect and find all minds within your local area.

|syntax = MIND LISTEN<br/>

MIND UNLISTEN

|description = You are now able to direct audio sensory input of your target over the telepathic link and to your own mind. This will allow you to overhear conversations either within the location or through direct tells. Due to the ongoing effort required to maintain this ability, there is a constant loss of mental strength.

|syntax = MIND ISOLATE<br/>

MIND DEISOLATE

|description = This ability will isolate a mind locked player from all mental communication they may attempt to send or receive. Normal communication such as speaking or shouting will still be heard.

|syntax = MIND LINK <telepath><br/>

MIND UNLINK

|description = By opening up a one way channel to another telepath, you are able to lend them some of your mental strength. This allows for telepathic feats that would otherwise be impossible.

|skillname = Psycombat

|description = Psychic combat is a telepathic battle between two players where the goal is to crumple your opponents 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 harms way. Most other commands will not work until the game is complete.

If your opponent has less then 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.

This takes time and during which you may not do anything else. Once the ability is successful, an exit will open up allowing you to escape.

|syntax = MIND PROBE <ME|target>

|description = By probing your subjects mind, you can gather a small amount of information on their mental activity without needing to form a mindlock. Your probe can reach as far as the local area.

|description = Using this ability will allow you to transfer a mind lock to another telepath. The target telepath must be in the same area as you, for this is a delicate operation.

|syntax = MIND INSIGHT <ON|OFF>

|description = Your ability to project psychic force allows you to view the surface thoughts of others in your location, or if you have locked minds with another.

|syntax = MIND EMPATHY<br/>

MIND UNEMPATHY

|description = This ability will allow you to form an empathatic link between you and your locked target, allowing you to heal the other periodically at the cost of your own body. This ability comes with a mental drain in order to upkeep your empathatic link.

|description = Clarity of mind is a defence against a weakened psyche, protecting you one time against the effects of dementia and hallucinations.

|description = You have gained sufficient knowledge of the workings of the mind that you can now command your mind locked target into performing a single action of your choice. There is a short cooldown after using this ability.

|syntax = MIND CLOAK ON/OFF

|description = Cloak your telepathy from the senses of others. This will hide you most notibly from TELESENSE and make it more difficult to be detected when you are locked with another mind.

|description = This ability is passive.

Your sensitivity to telepathic power has been heightened to the extreme, allowing you to make better use of Telesense. You can now see who is attempting to lock minds with another person, or yourself. Additionally they will be unable to hide themselves through cloaking their telepathy.

|description = This ability is passive.

Your skill at telepathy has increased that you can now use minor telepathy attacks while off balance. Doing so however, will incur an extra equilibrium cost as compared to normal.

|syntax = MIND BARRIER<br/>

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.

|description = This powerful ability will allow you scan through the mind of your locked target and gain a large amount of information about them and their inventory.

An extremely complicated ability, this will allow you to create a pathway between your location and your locked target, transporting you instantly there. There is no equilibrium cost to use this maneuver.

|description = Replenish your mana and willpower over time, at a cost in the form of a health and endurance drain. Using the ability again will turn it off.

|description = This powerful telepathic ability allows you to throw whoever you have locked to a specified target.

|description = At a constant mana drain, this ability throws up a telepathic net over the local area, informing you whenever anyone moves into or out of range of the net.

|syntax = MIND SAPIENCE<br/>

UNWATCH

|description = By tapping into a locked player's cortex, you are able to see anything the player does. This is a difficult ability to control, and only a mutual ally will allow you to make full use of it.

|description = This allows you to reach out with your mind and clamp down on your mind locked target, reducing their maximum health and mana levels.

|description = By sending out a blast of rawest telepathic power, you are able to, for a short period of time, knock out all senses of your locked target. There is a short cooldown after using this ability before you may use it again.

This ability will allow you to drift through space and appear at the location of the telepath you have linked minds with.

|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. Keep in mind that this requires a large amount of equilibrium in order to perform, and if the victim steps into the same location as you or breaks the mind lock, then your attempt will fail.

|syntax = MIND PRINT<br/>

MINDPRINTS<br/>

|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. There is a separate set of mind prints taken if you do so within the arena.

|syntax = MIND FEAR <target>

|description = With this ability, you are able to throw the mind of another into a state of irrational fear.

|description = You are able to convince a target that he has seen whatever hallucination you deem fit.

|description = By directing a powerful pulse of telepathic energy into the mind of another player, you are able to short-circuit his mental processes, causing him to become confused.

|syntax = MIND SUFFUSE <target>

|description = Suffuse another with mental strength by sacrificing your own.

|syntax = MIND DRAIN <target>

|description = Almost the reverse of Suffuse, this drains mental strength from your target and bestows it upon you.

|syntax = MIND DIVINE <target>

|description = By divining the mind, you can assert the exact knowledge of the physical and mental state of your target.

|syntax = MIND RECKLESSNESS <target>

|description = Alter the mind of your target and make him unconcerned with his own well-being. This will afflict your target with recklessness.

|syntax = MIND DISRUPT <target>

|description = With this ability, you may destroy the equilibrium of your target providing they have at least two mental afflictions or are suffering from blackout. They will not recover from it until they CONCENTRATE.

|syntax = MIND EPILEPSY <target>

|description = By short-circuiting some of the nervous system of another player, you are able to cause periodic spasms in him. This will afflict him with epilepsy.

|syntax = MIND PACIFY <target>

|description = By drawing a soft cloak of telepathic power over the mind of another player, you are able to make offensive actions abhorrent to him. This will afflict him with pacifism.

|syntax = MIND STUPIDITY <target>

|description = By casting a net of psychic energy over your opponent's mind, you will cause his mind to occasionally misfire. This will afflict him with stupidity.

|syntax = MIND ANOREXIA <target>

|syntax = MIND AMNESIA <target>

|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.

|syntax = MIND DEADENING <target>

|description = This ability will cause your opponents mind to be dull, afflicting them with deadening.

|description = This ability can be used through a mind lock or on another in the same location. You will aid the mind in throwing off its own mental illnesses, thereby curing the target of one mental affliction.

|syntax = MIND CRUSH <target>

|description = This ability sends a crushing wave of mental energy at your subject, doing both physical and mental damage. If you have locked minds with your target, the power is increased slightly.

|syntax = MIND STRIP <target>

|description = Your mental prowess is such that you may coax your opponent into relaxing his defences.

|syntax = MIND PUSH <target>

|description = By sheer force of will, you may push a random affliction from yourself to your target. There is a short period of immunity gained by the target after using this ability, where you may not use this ability on them again.

|description = This powerful telepathic attack will stun your target and allow you to inflict them with up to three afflictions.
