Receive is a Talent unlocked through the Disciplined Psionics Codex. Receive is used for psionically taking things into yourself. You can use this talent to read another’s thoughts or emotions, to harmlessly dissipate a blaster shot, or to heighten your senses. Particular uses of Receive require unlocking additional Xtras from the Disciplined Psionics Codex known as Psionic Disciplines.
Special:
Overcome: Need to figure out what the guard’s orders are? Read his mind! Need to walk through a freezing cold plain? Absorb and dissipate the cold!
Create an Advantage: Did the diplomat think about some SENSITIVE SECRET while you were scanning her thoughts? Maybe your LIFE SENSE alerted you to a nearby life-form. Targets can attempt to oppose using either their Will skill or Deflect talent, as appropriate.
Defend: When you absorb and dissipate the cold, you’re defending. When you catch and disperse the force of a bullet, that’s also a defense. When you scan the thoughts of someone trying to deceive you with lies, that’s defense. Targets can attempt to oppose using either their Will skill or Deflect talent, as appropriate.
