[QUOTE="Arathil, post: 2560761"] [b]Psionics[/b] 406... 99.3% of all individuals within the Crossroads Tavern are latently talented psionicists. 407... Anybody psionically active, latently talented, or endowed with completely non-psionic spell-like abilities, is also telepathic. 408... Telepathy may be used casually, in place of speech, an endless number of times per day. 409... The presence of a telepathic character within the Tavern instantly endows everybody else with temporary telepathic ability. We can all hear everything they're thinking. 410... Non-telepathic thought-bubbles are invariably used to goad someone else currently present into a fight. 411... Twinks, snerts, godmoders, powergamers, and munchkins are invariably completely obvlivious to any attempt, however subtle (or not) made to mock them, and find it completely humorous... often joining in. 411b..
