Telepathic Communication

Players in Elder Tale were able to communicate with each other via voice chat, using their PC's speakers and microphone. However, players could only talk with other players who are already on their friend list.

After the Catastrophe, this communication system became telepathic (念話) and functions something like a virtual cell phone network, activated by placing one's hand over an ear after either selecting the name of the person being contacted (as the initiator) or accepting the call (recipient). The same limitations still apply; players need to add others to their friend list in order to communicate them.

This ability was used to great effect during the Return of the Goblin King event by allowing Adventurers to coordinate with each other, giving real-time battle plans and surveillance.

One interesting thing to note is that though People of the Land have their own entries, they cannot be added to an Adventurer's friend list. This was discovered when Isuzu tried to add Rundelhous Code to her friend list, but the request was automatically rejected.

Takayama Misa's Overskill, Hermes Link, allows her to project what she sees to those she uses Telepathy with.
