    It isn't the amount of power which limits it, it's the amount of concentration required. And it's plausible that different uses need different amounts of concentration

    well Matt say that controlling people was like pushing a thought, instead of pulling thoughts into his head, but controlling what a person sees or not would be quite difficult

    So did I. But it'd have been funny to see her try to persuade Emma, and get all confused when she realised it wasn't working

    Could telepathy be used to recover memories which have been erased, or maybe ones which have just been blocked/hidden in someone's subconscious? And if so, could a telepath say do this to heal his own memories, if he got suspicious of blank gaps and confusion?

    I think it could be used to recover memories. However what im unsure about is that if abilities like memory erasing, mental manip etc. actually completely wipe the memories or just remove them temporarily/block them.

    I guess the telepath would be able to do his/her own, but it would be weird using your own ability on yourself.

    Yeah, I was thinking more highly advanced telepathy, in that case. I was just remembering Matt having had his memories erased in S1, and wondering if he'd have been able to fix himself if he'd have been more skilled with his ability.

    I guess it does depend on that differentiation Nod But only one - your Memory Erasure - clearly states that it's deleting, and that this'd be impossible.

    Nod yeah. I wanted to make it clear that it removed, because in all honestly i dnt see how telepathy will bring it back (or even healing) when the memory has been removed. But memory manipulation will get it back as thats well manipulating memories Razz

    Healing could make the brain cells reform the neural pathway which made the memory shrug And full healing could reproduce the memory just like normal healing or regen reproduces cells.
