    That one question from the Elder Scrolls class/Personality quiz was uncomfortably prescient:

    Question 4: There is a lot of heated discussion at the local tavern over a group of people called ‘Telepaths’. They have been hired by certain City-State kings. Rumor has it these Telepaths read a person’s mind and tell their lord whether a follower is telling the truth or not.

    Combat Response: This is a terrible practice. A person’s thoughts are his own and no one, not even a king, has the right to make such an invasion into another human’s mind.
    Magic Response: Loyal followers to the king have nothing to fear from a Telepath. It is important to have a method of finding assassins and spies before it is too late.
    Stealth Response: In these times, it is a necessary evil. Although you do not necessarily like the idea, a Telepath could have certain advantages during a time of war or in finding someone innocent of a crime.

    It looks like the kids these days are all mana-slingers lol
