The way desert-living creatures wouldnt get Swim bonuses. Sense Motive is already bonused by their empathic expansion of it, another +3 is excessive IMHO. Very true, but a racial stat block should be based off the average Betazoid. Given Deanna is a professional detector and Tam is a super-freak, I'd think the average of the species lies between Suder and Lwaxana.    Agreed. Who said it was projective? As opposed to giving an Opaque trait, why not just list the races they cant scan? Maybe it's just Betazoids that cant scan them. Ha, thanks for the honor of cut-pasting, but empathy/telepathy shouldnt cover memories just current thoughts and feelings. Also consider: "This DC is increased by the WILL save modifier of an actively resistant target." Reads easier. Sense Motive general doesnt allow retries and takes a minute, may want to address this.I'm liking that.  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" /> Does this need a Trick? Cant we say Betazoids can just speak to each other telepathically, having to think slower for the half-breed children?  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" /> How about a Betazoid can have only one Imzadi, they can mindspeak to them (provided the above), can take 10 to read them any time, and can sense them across a quadrant?   What is a low level Betazoid telepath? Zanthi fever needs the disease stats but that's a good approximation.</blockquote>
