Telepathy

Telepathy (from the Greek τηλε, tele meaning "distant" and πάθη, pathe meaning "affliction, experience"), is the transfer of information on thoughts or feelings between individuals by means other than the five senses.

Capabilities and variations
The ability of telepathy falls under two categories; Telepathic Communication and Telepathic Perception.


 * Telepathic Communication (also known as Thought Projection) is the ability to converse with another's mind via the mental plane of existence; it can go so far as to overwhelm others with thoughts so that their perception alters.


 * Telepathic Perception (also known as Mind Reading or Thought Probing) is the ability to examine or read the minds of others. The user of this ability can hear a subject's thoughts at the low level of this ability, see a subjects thoughts at the middle level, and then scan the memories of a subjects thoughts at the high level.

Techniques
Some techniques a user can utilize with this ability include: Telepathy can be used in a number of defensive ways, including but not excluding:
 * Telepathic Broadcast is a techniques used to cause the minds of others or oneself to broadcast their thoughts like vocalizations, for all to hear.
 * A telepath can create realistic telepathic illusions and cause people to experiences events, or have memories that have not occurred or will never occur.
 * A telepath can alter the apparent physical appearance of oneself and others by altering the perceptions of those around them. This can go so far as to make other people believe that the camouflaged people are there (Invisibility). The only limit to this technique, if one exists, is only imposed by the number of people a telepath is trying to fool, not the number of people a telepath is actually camouflaging.
 * The mind can be cloaked to veil the mind and it's thoughts from outside entities.
 * A shield can be formed to protect the mind and it's thoughts from outside mental attacks.
 * A telepath can mask oneself and other's presences to cloak themselves from others, to appear as if they themselves were a shadow.
