	~~To perform~~ a communion ~~on a target, all participants must start while in touch range~~ of the ~~target~~. ~~Once started, the~~ participants ~~may~~ not ~~move from~~ the ~~site~~ of the communion ~~but~~ the ~~target is free~~ to ~~move away~~. ~~A successfully completed~~ communion will ~~take full effect regardless of how far~~ the ~~target has moved~~.		Communions must be overseen by a deadlocked AI.

			==== Obfuscation ====

			All participants of the communion will intuitively know the intent of the communion from the moment it starts. The participants are however not automatically privy to the details of the communion unless the lead psion decides to share them. For example, the lead psion does not need to inform other participants of the contents of the message that they transmit using the sending communion, but all participants will intuitively know that they are performing the sending communion.

	~~Communions~~ must ~~be overseen by a deadlocked AI~~.		The target however will intuitively know both the intent and the details of the communion that targets them and they will obtain this knowledge at the start of the roleplay performance.

			==== Target and Movement ====

Each participant may opt to spend one reagent, food or other organic material to increase the communion potency. When a participant chooses to do this, they count as two extra contributors to the communion.

	Starting psions acquire a focus pool of two points. Focus can be used to discharge Powers and participate in Communions. The focus pool can be enlarged by learning appropriate skills. It regenerates by spending 30 seconds interacting with sentient individuals while out of combat. Spending Focus, making any calls, participating in a Ritual, or receiving any damage will prevent regaining of focus.		Starting psions acquire a focus pool of two points.
