What requires Telepathy?

[Mark]

Honestly I seem to think that this is just a result of different people reviewing your moves. My rule of thumb is, anything that directly takes, creates or removes information from someone's mind requires telepathy.

Things like changing perception, inspiring rage or inducing fear could either be classified as emotional manipulation or illusions, which don't inherently need the Telepathy power. I believe the clinching phrase in "Am I Seeing Things?" is that it 'makes the target forget' that CP was there. You are directly suppressing information in someone's brain, which requires telepathy.

I usually just go with hallucination vs delusion as a good example. Toying with the senses/emotions isn't telepathy, but mindfucking them into believing untrue information on a cognitive level is telepathy.
