Minor psionics, especially telepathy, are common nature in Crinos. Psionically-skilled visitors will be able to use their powers quite easily after a bit of practice. Minor psionics, like telepathy, are simple; while major psionics, such as telekinesis, takes a bit more effort, requiring a Psyche of at least Amber rank. Psychic contact is easy, and can be made simply by looking at the subject, though the farther the physical distance the harder it is to affect the subject.
Natives have an inherent empathic connection to each other, and as such may use telepathy amongst themselves more flexibly: while within the boundaries of the shadow, a native may bespeak a native without even viewing the subject. Only telepathy can be done this way; any deeper mental contact requires line-of- sight. Inter-tribal communication is also common, with the shared tribal empathy allowing members of the same tribe to communicate more easily.
