Telepathic Control
Telepathy is not a discipline well-suited to direct mental control of other beings. While a telepath can impart urges and thoughts to a target, they lack the tools to assume direct control of a victim’s physical actions. The best they can do is implant ideas in the target’s head and try to hijack the short-term cognition of the victim.

Persistent legends speak of more direct disciplines practiced during the Mandate’s heyday. These arts supposedly allowed a psychic to take direct control of a subject’s physical form, manipulating it with effortless ease to perform whatever acts the psychic desired. Unlike telepathy, however, these disciplines were unable to touch the cognitive centers of a target or read their mental activity. If any such disciplines ever existed, their possessors are doubtless very discreet with them.
