Passive Contact (Psionic)

:Note: Contact, Passive Contact, & Mass Contact are replaced with Contact (Proficiency) in the Revised Psionic System used in Skills & Powers.
With this power, the psionicist can establish a constant yet passive mental link with another character. The subject must be willing, and the psionicist must successfully initiate passive contact while the subject is in his presence. After the power has been established, the subject can go anywhere he likes while still maintaining a tenuous link with the psionicist.
This link allows the subject to get the psionicist's attention by sending out a mental call. The psionicist gets a tingle in his mind that lets him know that his passive contact wants his attention. Presumably, the psionicist will then respond by trying normal contact and mindlink with the subject to find out what's going on.
Passive contact is useful because it gives the psionicist's nonpsionic friends a way to get in touch with the psionicist when they need his help.
Power Score: The psionicist knows if the subject is in trouble, even if the subject hasn't tried to get his attention yet.
20: The psionicist believes he has successfully initiated the power, but the subject will not be able to get his attention.
