Telepathic Communication
Telepathy (Auspex 4) allows a character to pick up only the surface thoughts of other individuals, and to speak to one at a time. With Telepathic Communication, a character can form a link between his mind and that of other subjects, allowing them to converse in words, concepts and sensory images at the speed of thought. Vampires with this level of Auspex can act as "switchboard operators," creating a telepathic web that allows all participants to share thoughts with some or all other members of the network as they choose.
System: The player rolls Charisma + Empathy (Difficulty of the target's current Willpower) to establish contact, although a willing subject may allow the vampire access and thus obviate the need for a roll. The maximum range at which a subject may be contacted and the maximum number of individuals who may be linked simultaneously with this power depends on the Auspex rating of the vampire who initiates contact.
Auspex Rating | # of links | Maximum Range |
Auspex 6 | 3 subjects | 500 miles |
7 | Perception Rating | 1000 miles |
8 | Perception + Empathy | 500 miles for every point of Intelligence |
9 | 2x Perception + Empathy | 1000 miles for every point of Intelligence |
