Sensory Suppression

This devotion allows the psionicist to temporarily Blind or deafen an opponent by interfering with the brain’s reception of sensory information. The victim’s eyes or ears still work fine, but the mind cannot process the information. The psionicist must individually contact each creature he wants to affect and make a separate power check for each subject.

The victims remain blinded or deafened for as long as the psionicist pays the maintenance cost to keep the power going. Blinded characters suffer a penalty of –4 to all attacks, saves, and Armor Class. Deafened characters suffer a –1 penalty, but the penalty could he increased depending on the circumstances. (For example, a character trying to use his blind fighting proficiency to engage a foe in total darkness is very susceptible to being deafened.)
