From what I know, empathy (Star Trek: Betazoids) is the power to feel/sense ones emotions. If someone, who know the (human) psyche well (Hannibal Lechter) can use this power to control/influence the mind of any person, exploit their weaknesses and induce inferiority complex, depression, rage, hesitation or suicide. To have the upper hand in a combat situation, one needs to analyze the opponent flawlessly and figure out “which button to push” in order to break the morale/concentration. Just a thought, I have nothing to confirm this statement.
