You send a telepathic message of up to twenty-five words to any living creature within range. Mental missive is strictly a one-way exchange from you to the subject. If you do not share a common language, the subject “hears” meaningless mental syllables.

Augment

You can augment this power in any of the following ways.

  1. If you spend 1 additional power point, the range of this power increases to Medium (100 ft. + 10 ft./level). If you instead spend 2 additional power points, the range of this power increases to Long (400 ft. + 40 ft./level).
  2. If you spend 2 additional power points, the message is delivered to all creatures within range. You can include or exclude from this broadcast any creature you can see, as well as any creature that you know or know of.

Alternatively, if you expend your psionic focus when manifesting this power, you need not spend any power points to manifest it, but the message is limited to ten words, and the power cannot be further augmented.
