Long have we been fascinated with the concept of psychic powers -- being able to read others' thoughts, divine the future and move objects with the power of our mind alone. At the same time, those very concepts can be terrifying -- unable to keep your innermost thoughts secret, falling under the absolute control of another or not not being able to trust your own memories.
Whether the abilities are mystical in nature (such as being able to tap into the life force that surrounds us all) or more scientific (such as the presence of microscopic organisms in your blood stream granting you fantastic powers) one thing is common to all mentalists -- the mind can be a very powerful thing.
Ultimate Mentalist gives you all the tools you need to play a psychic character in your favourite setting . Written for the HERO System, the book gives you new powers, power tricks, advantages, limitations and plot hooks, as well as several sample characters.
