== Sense ==

  MIND SENSE <target>

  MIND LOCK <target>

  MIND UNLOCK <target>

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 player must be in the same area as you, for even your powerful mind has its limits.

 

 

Once you have a lock, every 15 seconds, the locked mind automatically gets a chance to break the lock. The chance of breaking the lock is determined by a comparison of your current mana vs. the target's current mana, and your Telepathy level vs. the target's Philosophy level. If you have a mindprint of the target, the chance of breaking the lock will be affected by your maximum mana rather than your current mana.

== Glance ==

 

 

  MIND TELESENSE

 

 

  MIND THROW <direction>

 

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.

 

== Numbness ==

  MIND NUMBNESS

This ability temporarily rewires the mind of a locked player, preventing the player from touching tattoos and using delayed instakills.

 

  MIND TERROR

 

Having gained more knowledge of the Telepathic discipline, you are able to throw your target into a state of pure terror..far greater than simple fear. The player will drop whatever he is doing and run screaming in terror.

 

== Confuse ==

 

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.

 

  MIND SUFFUSE

 

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 ==

 

== Listen ==

 

 

  MIND DIVINE

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.

 

  FULLSENSE

 

 

  MIND ISOLATE

 

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

 

 

  LINK <target>

 

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 ==

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 four commands associated with psychic combat that may be used in these rooms, and most normal commands will not work. The psychic combat commands are

 

 

Using your mental powers, you blast out at your opponent, attacking his mana.

 

 

At the expense of some mana, this protects you against Psy Blast.

 

 

You lash out with your psychic powers to tear away your opponent's Psychic Barrier.

 

 

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.

 

 

 

This allows you to regain mana, albeit slowly.

 

 

 

  MIND DISRUPT

 

 

  MINDSENSE

 

When a telepath temporarily loses his telepathic abilities due to psychic combat, he radiates a great pain of loss. This ability seeks out those with that pain and tells you who they are.

 

 

  MIND TRANSFER <telepath>

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.

 

  MIND EPILEPSY

 

By short-circuiting some of the nervous system of your locked player, you are able to cause periodic spasms in him, causing him to be unable to do many things while spasming.

 

  MIND PACIFY

 

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.

 

  MIND EMPATHY

  MIND UNEMPATHY

 

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.

 

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.

 

  MIND COMMAND <command>

You have gained sufficient knowledge of the workings of the mind to caress it into doing exactly what you wish.

== Mindcloak ==

  MINDCLOAK ON/OFF

This ability will allow you to, at a regular drain of mental power, attempt mind locks that will be harder to detect than normal. It will go undetected by players who are using Telesense, for instance. In addition, this defense will also aid you in maintaining a telepathic lock once you have obtained one.

 

 

  MIND HALLUCINATE <target>

 

  HYPERSENSE ON/OFF

You are now able to cast a net of telepathic power over the local area. Like a spider at the centre of his web, any attempts at telepathic locking within your net will vibrate the invisible strands of mental power and alert you to attempt.

 

  MIND AMNESIA

 

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.

== Barrier ==

 

 

 

  MIND SCAN

An improvement on Divine, this will allow you to see considerably more information about the locked player.

== Deadening ==
