-To use this power, the psion designates a 10 metre diameter area, and must then spend at least 10 minutes of roleplayed action ritually interacting with the newly defined area. Once this has been completed, as long as the psion remains within this area, their healing aura works faster, reducing the amount of time required to heal Body Hits from 10 minutes to 5 minutes. This power ends immediately if the psion leaves the designated area (except for OOC reasons such as needing the bathroom or going OOC to get food). This power grants access to the Aura Echoing Branch Path.+To use this power, the psion designates a 10 metre diameter area, and must then spend at least 10 minutes of roleplayed action ritually interacting with the newly defined area.

 Now able to perceive the waves of psionic power that they emit, the Psion is able to create a psionic boundary around an area that reflects their aura’s energy back inwards, reinforcing it and enhancing its effect. ​ The act of defining the bounded area is often highly personalised - some psions perform a series of flowing body movements, others dance or walk the bounds of the area, others use mantras, talismans or other trinkets to “mound up” the psionic topography of the area, creating a metaphorical pool of rippling, calming “water” for their aura to fill. The waves of psionic energy emitted by the psion are contained within the bounded area, reflecting and amplifying each other. The boundary is quite fragile, and draws its structure from the energy it contains - removing the source causes it to rapidly collapse. Now able to perceive the waves of psionic power that they emit, the Psion is able to create a psionic boundary around an area that reflects their aura’s energy back inwards, reinforcing it and enhancing its effect. ​ The act of defining the bounded area is often highly personalised - some psions perform a series of flowing body movements, others dance or walk the bounds of the area, others use mantras, talismans or other trinkets to “mound up” the psionic topography of the area, creating a metaphorical pool of rippling, calming “water” for their aura to fill.

 Now a master of their healing aura, the psion can manipulate the calming effect to directly affect their patient’s neurological signalling, suppressing and muting pain signals and creating sleep-like analgesia in a waking mind. They now exude a calm and disarming demeanour effortlessly,​ bringing ease to others with a simple word or a smile. Now a master of their healing aura, the psion can manipulate the calming effect to directly affect their patient’s neurological signalling, suppressing and muting pain signals and creating sleep-like analgesia in a waking mind.

 Once they have mastered how to strengthen the emotional component of their healing aura, a Felani Psion can begin to alter their projected psionic field to create different emotions in those it affects. Although their aura lacks the raw strength of Elysian telepathic projection, the Felani’s innate psionic field allows for more subtle effects to be delivered much more efficiently and for a longer duration. Once they have mastered how to strengthen the emotional component of their healing aura, a Felani Psion can begin to alter their projected psionic field to create different emotions in those it affects.

 By creating boundaries around the psyche of their targets, the Psion can create a fragment of their Emotion Aura that replenishes and reinforces itself independent of the Felani’s innate psionic field. This creates a long-lasting and powerful bulwark against sources of conflicting emotional energy, armouring their recipient in a bubble of positive emotion. By creating boundaries around the psyche of their targets, the Psion can create a fragment of their Emotion Aura that replenishes and reinforces itself independent of the Felani’s innate psionic field.

 By manipulating the psionic topography of their surroundings to create a boundary, a Felani Psion opens up another great source of potential - that of containing, reflecting and amplifying their own psionic field. The ability to form a Bounded Aura has been described by Felani Psionic scientists as projecting a fourth dimensional landscape into this reality - a series of hills and valleys that direct and contain the fountain of psionic energy that flows out from every Felani. This Path deals with the source of the Felani’s innate psionic field - directing and shaping it, and allowing them to open their mind to other sources of psionic energy. By manipulating the psionic topography of their surroundings to create a boundary, a Felani Psion opens up another great source of potential - that of containing, reflecting and amplifying their own psionic field.

 A master of their own innate psionic field, the Psion can define multiple eddies, channels and complex topography within their Bounded area to cause the rippling energy contained within to amplify to a frenzied crescendo. Psionic studies of this power in use have theorised that the energy ripples increase in amplitude, becoming metaphysical tsunamis contained within the “bottle” of the Boundary perimeter. At a certain inflection point, the energy chaotically spasms for a few moments, and then drains itself into the minds of the treated individuals,​ who invariably lose consciousness and experience a vivid shared hallucination or vision. These visions vary wildly - some are interpreted as visions of other times, other places, metaphorical explorations of conceptual constructs, journeys inside the mind of one of the participants,​ or terrifying nightmares. Occasionally a visionary will undergo a profound alteration of their psyche, suffer lasting mental trauma or be cured of preexisting trauma, or even display enhanced abilities, any of which can linger for some time after the experience. Commonality scientists have several possible theories for the nature of the visions, very few of which have had any consistent testing applied. What is known is that during the period of energy spasms there is a perceptible quaking of the local resonance field, which may be a result of the furious contained energy entangling briefly with it, or even breaching into different dimensions. A master of their own innate psionic field, the Psion can define multiple eddies, channels and complex topography within their Bounded area to cause the rippling energy contained within to amplify to a frenzied crescendo.
