# A cetacean brain is somewhat different from the brain of a humanoid, and their way of thinking rather different as well. As such, while telepaths can read their thoughts and emotions, the foreign brain structure and nonhumanoid perspective makes them often very difficult to understand or interpret. | # A cetacean brain is somewhat different from the brain of a humanoid, and their way of thinking rather different as well.

# Dolphins like Ekkridai use sound imaging, not reflected light, as their primary sense. As a result, they have casual access to information that humans do not. When Ekkridai encounters a person, he can tell that person's relative densities (the practical upshot of which is that he knows your anatomy, your heartrate, any implants or tumours you have, whether you're pregnant, whether you're hiding a weapon, what you've got in your pockets, what you're holding behind your back, etc., and will have known this long before you turned the corner and saw him.) | # Dolphins like Ekkridai use sound imaging, not reflected light, as their primary sense.
