Mentalist Abilities
Mentalists study the mind, thought, and even the brain itself in order to better understand how the spirit and body are bridged. Early study reveals how best to impose hallucinations on another, or how to scramble someone's thoughts so thoroughly they fall unconscious. True expertise can teach how to link a set of minds together so that they become aware of all things within perception, or how to wipe a mind clean of a particular bit of information. A dangerous lot in general, a free and wondering Mentalist can set a city on edge, while a truly malicious one causes panic.
