Receptive Telepathy

"Another fine mess you've gotten us into!"
"It's not my fault! How was I to know there were predators this big on the planet?"
"Did you see the size of its teeth?"
"It's…that's odd. I think it's more interested in us than hungry."

Receptive Telepathy was a Sense-base Force power which allowed Force users to actively read a person's thoughts and feel their emotions. In some cases, the Force user could search a target's memories for specific information. It was easier to use on individuals who were close to the Force user emotionally, and some individuals, such as other Force users, could actively resist the technique. The power could be used against creatures as well, although using it against individuals of a different species sometimes resulted in a difficulty to interpret information if the species processed emotions differently.^[1]
