[QUOTE="CyberSpyder, post: 1167316, member: 12199"] This came up rather quickly in a new game...I have a character with a few levels of Mindbender from Tome & Blood, and I attempted to use the 1st level ability Telepathy to communicate with a creature trying to eat me. I assumed it provided two-way communication so that those I could talk to could talk back if they wished, but the GM didn't see it that way, and looking at the description again I'm not sure myself. "Telepathy (Su): At first level, the mindbender unlocks one of the most basic elements of his mental craft, gaining the supernatural ability to communicate telepathically with any creature within 100 feet that has a language." So, what do other people think? Does this mean back-and-forth communication is possible even with no shared language, or simply that I can talk at them? And perhaps more importantly, is there anything official which would indicate the former, if that is the correct interpretation? [/QUOTE]
