Hypno Block

Hypno Block

general term for a wide field of bio chemical,technological surgical and psionic procedures. Basic aim for all Hypno(Hypnosis) Blocks is to temporarily or permanent denying access to memories or knowledge of an individual by itself. Hypno Blocks may be as simple as denying access, can be triggered by certain stimuli such as words, sounds, tastes, sights or any other neural information processed by the brain. The term originates on Earth and of Pre Astro times when hypnosis was used to manipulate unconcious thought process. The Saresii were the unchallenged masters in any psycho neurologiocal related fields (until the Leedei joined) and introduced much more effective, and very precise memor control. Military Intelligence makes frequent use of complex Hypno Block techniques relying on more than suggestions but surgery, implants psionics. The Narth have demonstrated on numerous occations that they are able to break or circumvent Hypno Blocks of any kind (Even altering or repairing surgical implanted blocks telekinetically) But even the Narth can not prevent a Mind wipe impulse if the blocked person becomes aware of the breraking attempt.

All Union Command Officers have a Hypno Block. (Implant) but not all are active. Hypno Block knowledge might be part of Classified information.

All technicians and engineers of Translocator systems have Hypno Blocks and Mind Wipe devices implanted.(Until 5060 when the Translocator technology was declassified to Blue-Blue-Blue and removed from the Union Critical Technology list)
