Detect Thoughts - 5600 AXP

TIER THREE FEATURE: Detect Thoughts

    • AXP: 5600
    • Pre-Requisites: None
    • Grants Access To: None

While concentrating for up to one minute, you can analyze the microexpressions of a target human. Granting you access to their thoughts. When you use this feature and as your action on each turn until the effect ends, you can focus your mind on any one human that you can see within 30 feet of you. If the human you choose has an Intelligence of 3 or lower or doesn’t speak any language, they are unaffected.

You initially learn the surface thoughts of the human—what is most on its mind in that moment. As an action, you can either shift your attention to another human’s thoughts or attempt to probe deeper into the same target’s mind. If you probe deeper, the target must make a Charisma saving throw. If it fails, you gain insight into its reasoning (if any), its emotional state, and something that looms large in its mind (such as something it worries over, loves, or hates). If it succeeds, the effect ends.

Questions verbally directed at the target naturally shape the course of its thoughts, so this ability is particularly effective as part of an interrogation.

This feature may not be used on any non-human creature.
