Lan has a telepathic and empathic rating of [[T/E Rating System|T4/E4]] | Lan has a telepathic and empathic rating of [[T/E Rating System|T4/E4]]. He's a natural telepath raised in a very traditionalist Betazoid household. As a result, he tends to remain quiet instead of voicing his thoughts, and would actually have trouble holding a spoken conversation in Betazoid. | ||
* '''Telepathic/Empathic Limitations''': : Empathy gating dysfunction condition. Lan has difficulties screening out the emotions coming from other people’s minds. While it takes only a minor effort from his part to shield his mind in a controlled and professional environment where people keep the worst of their emotions in check, it can become a major problem in situations where he is confronted to violent emotions and/or cannot afford to divert a fraction of his focus to blocking outside influences. To ward against this, he likes to have an emergency supply of psilocynine inhibitors ready at hand. | * '''Telepathic/Empathic Limitations''': : Empathy gating dysfunction condition.
