Eventhough I used the word telepathic its obvious I know what you meant.
No I wasn't. I was trying to show you that even though a characters powers have links to the Astral Plane it doesn't neccessarily mean they can manipulate it or access it. Because to access the astral plane one would need to manipulate and shape it's very energies.(Mental Energy)
The bio you gave me said he "reads" autonomic nervous systems of other people. "Reads" is in inverted commas which could mean he psionically reads and manipulates autonomic nervous systems like Storm reads and psionically manipulates her enviroment. It doesn't make him a true telepath. If that was the case one could say that Storm has limited telepathy and Iceman has limited telepathy.
The autonomic nervous system is responsible for hearing, seeing etc...which explains how he's able to effect peoples vision and hearing.
This line here:
Thus he can effectively make himself invisible unless he is seen straight on, and he can prevent someone from hearing him as long as the sounds he makes are roughly at the level of ambient sound in the room they are in. The source of Manslaughter's powers is unknown; possibly he is a mutant.
Makes his limited telepathy even more suspect...his invisibility depends on what angle he's being looked at and the amplitude of the sounds he makes.
I think it says that he can transfer emotions through a psyhic link. So thats not his standard power setting, even DD can do telepathy under the right cirucmstance but without these circumstances his powers are not telepathic. This is probably why its wasnt in the bio I gave you.Anyway nevermind.
Oh wait you're right it says Moondragon estabilished the link...so then he can't create psychic links then? In that case since there's no evidence of him manipulating or shaping thought energy I'd presume he wouldn't be able to access the astral plane.
I think Wolverine gad telepathic powers with Cerebero that dont make him a telepath at all.
He used it to amplify his mind and communicate with Cable and Jean on the Astral Plane...he was communicating with two telepaths I'd hardly say he gained telepathic powers. Cerebra can be used by non-telepaths anyway. eg Kitty Pryde.
