She lies because she knows that no one will like her or tolerate her if they know she can read minds. It just doesn't make sense to me that one could send and not receive. Telepathic brain wiring simply wouldn't be built that way. And she can receive from Zelda (or perhaps Zelda is sending?) Not that she deliberately eavesdrops. She is honorable in that she would try not to listen, but sometimes one can't help overhearing. Or perhaps I am simply trying to assign more powers to Cally, a character who had great potential that the writers left largely unused.

It's not that she can't receive; it's that humans can't transmit. Aurons can, so she has two-way communication with Zelda. But humans evidently lack the transmitter, so while they can receive her if she broadcasts, they can't broadcast in return. And even among her own kind, she can evidently only pick up specific thoughts if they are deliberately transmitted -- she can't eavesdrop. (She shows indications of some vaguely defined empathic ability, which does entail "reading" emotional states which aren't being deliberately transmitted, but not actual thoughts.) - Lisa _____________________________________________________________ Lisa Williams: lcw@dallas.net or lwilliams@rsc.raytheon.com Lisa's Video Frame Capture Library: http://lcw.simplenet.com/ New Riders of the Golden Age: http://www.warhorse.com/ ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 3 Dec 1998 19:21:49 +0100 (BST) From: Judith Proctor To: Lysator List Subject: Re: [B7L] Cally's telepathic powers Message-ID: Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; CHARSET=US-ASCII On Thu 03 Dec, Tigerm1019@aol.com wrote: > In a message dated 98-12-02 14:40:36 EST, Judith wrote: > > > She can sense very strong emotions like Vila's pain when his arm was broken. > > She sensed Avon's unease in 'Hostage', but could not read his mind to > > deterimne the exact cause. > > I got the impression that she had to know the person well to do that.

She knew Avon well and could thus sense some emotion from him. Sending required her to know the person well if they were a long way off. She couldn't recieve thoughts even from someone she knew well. She only sent to Tarrant in Deathwatch and in fact had no way of knowing if he'd heard her or not.

I meant the same as you! put a thought -> spoke telepathically and "probe" as is "doing nothing" or make it appear as if she could. The problem here is the language.

As in Time Squad. And the subject's concentration level may play a part, as when she tries to warn Avon but he doesn't "hear." The telepathy bit with non-Aurons is one reason I think the Auronar are an early break-away colony from Earth, rather than truly alien. the fact that humans such as Vila seem to occasionally "transmit" telepathically seems to indicate that whatever causes telepathy is present in humankind. Presumably a genetic link. The Auron could simply be a group of colonists who were selected for their telepathic potential, and managed to realize it in isolation. The cloning process developed on Auron seems to have triggered the full potential of the genes. Indeed, Servalan's reaction to the destruction of the embryos both demonstrates that and the likelyhood that Servalan herself is a possible latent telepath. Now there's a nasty thread to consider; what would being actively telepathic have done to Servalan? D.
