Blood-Brain Barrier

With your mind and body in harmony you can prevent telepathic skills from affecting you physically. An apprentice gets a +3 to any appropriate saving throws. The journeyman gets a retest against those saving throws, and the master adds a 50% resistance (or half damage & effect). Note that this skill offers no resistance to purely physical psychic talents such as telekinesis. It also does not in any way protect your mind itself. It only shields you against a telepathic attack that in turn causes a physical effect. As examples, it would aid against possession, or if a mind mage were causing brain haemorrhages or playing with your pituitary gland's thermostat. It would not stop a pyrokinetic from setting your hair on fire, and will not at all help you if a telekinetic pitches a large rock at your face.
