Active Telepathy

Active Telepathy Mystic Proficiency [Awareness] 400 hours Psionic Requirement: Telepathy V

With this skill a mind mage can use their telepathy to actively "ping" sentient minds within their telepathic range. The skill is similar to a radar in that the mage is actively sending out telepathic "pings" to pinpoint sentient minds. It also produces a mental map of the active scan within the mage's mind. Active Telepathy & Telepathy stack when rolling for effectiveness and to determine the range of the active scan. Once the mage's skill is above level 12 then it can be used while other actives are being performed. A separate skill check can be made to determine how exact the distance between mage & detected mind is. A roll of ten equals a degree of accuracy of 8ft, each integer above ten doubles the accuracy, effectively halving the margin of error. (11=4ft, 12=2ft, 13=1ft etc.)
