Alurians are naturally telepathic. There appears to be no physical characteristic tied to the ability, so the means through which it is accomplished are unclear. A few social and intelligent animal species can also 'path weakly, enabling them to silently establish bonds and share simple concepts or emotions.

Unlike their animal counterparts, however, Alurians can use several forms of telepathy. Weak Telepathy, comparable to that of the animals, may be used on a temporary basis with strangers. 'Paths become stronger with familiarity and practice, such that friends and family can transmit increasingly complex information with more speed and accuracy, all without the limitations of traditional language. Telepathic strength dimishes as the distance between subjects increases, and its range varies for each individual. Some may only be able to 'path within their own city block, and others can reach for miles. It is considered rude to 'path with strangers outside of an emergency situation. It should be noted that telepathy is not "mind reading" - It is simply not possible for a stranger to spy on another's thoughts.

Upon mating, Alurians will unconsciously establish a strong permanent telepathic connection called a Link. Thoughts, emotions, and memories are effortlessly transmitted between linked partners at all times, which naturally results in mates often sharing a very close bond. *
*A link cannot be ended through conscious effort, but the flow of information can temporarily be blocked with concentration. Similar to regular telepathy, the signal weakens over distance. When partners are out of range of one another, nothing can be shared, and the Link is referred to as being "numb." *
*The death of a mate will sever the link in a sudden and traumatic fashion. While a severing is not lethal to the survivor in most cases, many individuals do not ever emotionally recover enough to find a new partner, and their likelihood of eventually committing suicide is also several times higher than average.

    These sorts of intimate back-history details for your character and her world are incredibly fascinating to me. It really brings her and them to life in a way art alone simply couldn't. ...And the art is amazing!

    I definitely look forward to hearing and learning more. :)
