Long Range Telepaths

-

There are several kinds of LRT. There are the genetically altered and purpose bred LRT of the Kermac, the genetically altered and bred LRT of the Saresii of the first Age of Knowledge and there are Natural Long Range Telepaths. settlement. Kermac LRTs are just like any other Kermac species, controlled by the Thought Police and severely punished for any errors or "subversive" thoughts. Kermac LRTs fatigue after about 10-15 minutes and must rest at least an hour before they can send again. "Recieving is less strainful and they can do that longer. They usually speak to a LRT Interpreter who translates their whisper gibber into understandable language.
 * 1) Kermac LRT are bred and forced into service by the Kermac. They have no other purpose, devolved muscles and legs and usually are to weak to move on their own. They are  move, tended and fed byLRT Tenders and special Care robots.  Kermac LRTs are part of every Kermac Capital ship and there are LRTs at every major colony and
 * 2) Like the Kermac, the Saresii used similar LRT to convey messages. This is according to Cateria the surviving Seeinan commander.
 * 3) Every 100,000 or so Saresii a natural LRT is born. An individual who can send and transmit thougts over vast distances. The Kriiet are a race of Natural LRTs from he Andromeda Galaxy (Union Member #4501) and many Kriiet are working for NAVINT and listening into Kermac LRT traffic.

As much as the Narth are Psi Talents, only a few individual Narth are LRT. Most Narth have a limited range. The Narth who is Eric Olafson's friend has a range of about 3 Light minutes. The Narth Supreme however has demonstrated to contact minds across many thousand light years (but he must know that Mind)

Normal Telepaths (regardless if Kermac, Phantas, Kriiet, Narth, Saresii have a range between a few centimeters to about 1000 meter) Anything more is considered very powerful. Anything less is Touch Telepathy ( physical Contact is required)

The Kermac sell their bred LRTs to anyone - Freespace Planets, Shiss, Nul, Karthanians and could be purchased on Golden Bazaars until recently.

Purchasing and "owning" a LRT is of course illegal in Union Space. LRTs are however not prohibited to sell or profit from their talent and open LRT Service Offices.( Due to GalNet, LRT is a very rare and almost unknown thing in the Union)
