Necropath

Necropath (minor) by Stone Gargoyle

"Dead men tell no tales, but sometimes I can get information out of them."

The superbeing can mentally probe minds at no ISP cost a limited number of times per day, as well as glean information from the minds of the dead.

1. Mental Probe: The superbeing can psionically assault minds of targets in range without using ISP, for the purpose of extracting information. The information sought must be specific, and even if the target does not make their saving throw the percentage of accuracy is only 50%, +3% per level.

Number of Uses: The superbeing can only use this ability his ME attribute number of times per day, plus one additional time per day per level.

Saving Throw: Save vs, psionics (16 or better for non-psionics, 14 or better for Latent Psionics, 12 or better for Master Psionics, ME bonus applies). A successful Saving Throw reduces the superbeing's accuracy by -40%. Mind Block will prevent the target's mind from being read completely.

Range: Superbeing's MEX10 feet, plus 10 feet per level.

2. Necro-Probe: The superbeing can also absorb the mental images last seen by the dead. In this case, the superbeing may peruse thoughts up to his ME number in minutes prior to the dead person's demise. This is 90% accurate.

Number of Uses: This ability can be used the hero's ME number of times per day, plus 2 times per level.

Saving Throw: None (unless undead or the like, in which case they save as above for Mental Probe).

Range: Touch at level one, plus one foot per level starting at level 2.

3. Other Abilities and Bonuses:

+4 to Save vs. Nausea and Horror Factor related to examining corpses

+2 to Save vs. Psionics

+1d4 ME

+2d6 to ISP (if applicable)
