[QUOTE="steeldragons, post: 7673952, member: 92511"] There seems to be a lot of...declaration of definitions of terms. Telepaths aren't "enchanters" and "illusionists"....Enchanters and Illusionists are enchatners and illusionists...and they're wizards. They use Int. If they are sorcerers that like to enchant and use illusions (or warlocks, for that matter) then they use Cha. I could say Telepathy is, literally, "out thinking" the target. You tell the target mind what it is going to perceive/believe/think about or see. You have the [however innate the origin] "know how" of where to go in the mind and which "switches to flip", if you will, to do that. You need a capacity to figure out, deduce, what symbols in a given mind are or mean. How to access the parts of the mind/memory you are looking for. Recall how you got from one place to another in one mind and how to do that again in another/different one to reliably repeat the use of your powers...and, of course, know/figure out/remember your way OUT of their head and back into your own. Deduction. Recall. Critical thinking and problem solving. "Mental Agility", if you like. Poof. Intelligence. [/QUOTE]
