Channel Power (Psi) The living altar can manifest powers through Ting to a distance of up to 1 mile. The psicrystal is treated as the power’s originator, and all ranges are calculated from its location.
When channelling a power through Ting, the living altar manifests the power by paying its power point cost. It is still subject to attacks of opportunity and other hazards of manifesting a power, if applicable.
Deliver Touch Powers (Su) Ting can deliver touch powers for the living altar. If the altar and Ting are in contact at the time the altar manifests a touch power, it can designate Ting as the “toucher.” The psicrystal can then deliver the touch power just as the altar could. As usual, if the altar manifests another power before the touch is delivered, the touch power dissipates.
Improved Evasion (Ex) If Ting is subjected to an attack that normally allows a Reflex saving throw for half damage, it takes no damage if it makes a successful saving throw and half damage even if the saving throw fails.
Sighted (Ex) Although it has no physical sensory organs, ting can telepathically sense its environment as well as a creature with normal vision and hearing. Darkness (even supernatural darkness) is irrelevant, as are areas of supernatural silence, though a psicrystal still can’t discern invisible or ethereal beings. A psicrystal’s sighted range is 40 feet.
Sight Link (Psi) The living altar can remote view the psicrystal (as if manifesting the
remote view power) once per day.
Telepathic Link (Su) The living altar has a telepathic link with Ting out to a distance of up to 1 mile. The altar cannot see through the psicrystal’s senses, but the two of them can communicate telepathically as if Ting were the target of a
mindlink power manifested by the altar.
Because of the telepathic link between Ting and the living altar, the altar has the same connection to an item or place that the psicrystal does.
Telepathic Speech (Ex) Ting can communicate telepathically with any creature that has a language and is within 30 feet of the psicrystal, while Ting is also within 1 mile of the living altar.
THE SIGHT [GENERAL]
You can view the invisible world, just as well as the physical.
Prerequisite: Wis 13+.
Benefit: You may sense incorporeal spirits within 60 ft. of your position with a successful Spot check (DC 20). This ability works just as detect evil, detect magic or detect undead and requires a round of concentration to activate.
@Aust Thale: Falen is
temporarily linked to Ting for a total number of days equal to the Living Altar's HD (15 days). Falen must return Ting to the psionic construct before that time period ends or the psicrystal will be permanently destroyed. The period of time is linked to the Material Plane not the Labyrinth of Lost Souls (unless Falen and Ting are in the dungeon demiplane [and not magically protected from the time dilation]).
During this time period, Ting acts as Falen's psicrystal as if Falen was the Living Altar. However, Ting must stay within
1/2 mile of Falen at all times for the connection to work. Any of its abilities based on distance are reduced by half. So, it can use its Telepathic Speech up to 15 feet and it must be within 1/2 mile of Falen to use that ability.
While the psicrystal is free to roam beyond that distance, Ting must stay on the same plane as Falen, and if it spends more than 15 hours apart from Falen, it will go inert (but won't die.) In this inert state, Ting is considered to be in a deep sleep. If Ting and Falen end up on different planes, the psicrystal will be destroyed within 15 hours spent apart from the half-hobgoblin.
Note that Falen
cannot manifest Ting's psi-like abilities; however, the Mindbender can cast magical spells using Ting's Channel Power and Deliver Touch Powers abilities. All ranges are halved when Falen does so. Falen can command Ting to use its psi-like abilities to aid Falen and the other Exemplars.
Ting remains in contact with the Living Altar only when in the Labyrinth of Lost Souls. On the Material Plane, the psicrystal loses its connection to the Ancients' guardian.
