Limitations[]

  • Users of Indomitable Will/Psychic Shield (highly resistant) and Psychic Immunity (impervious).
  • Conviction may be random; user is unable to choose what others will admit of.
  • The increase of personal information provided to the user (especially from those to whom he/she loves or trusts) could wear out on the user's emotional and mental state, leading to a psychotic break or even suicide.
  • May require to ask a question so the power would work.
    • Likewise, the user must speak and the target must listen and tell, so it is ineffective if the user is gagged or if the target can't hear or speak.
  • Requires a verbal confession, meaning they can't make anyone confess through gestures or writings.
  • Unless they are fluent in linguistics or can somehow make the target automatically speak in a specific language, such as English, the power may not work if the person is speaking in another language.
    • May only work on sapient beings and creatures, like humans, so, unless it automatically makes them speak or are sapient, will not work on animals or feral creatures.
