Applications[]
Associations[]
Limitations[]
- Powerful enough psychic or energy attacks may be able to break the blocks.
- Users of Psychic Shield (highly resistant) and Psychic Immunity (impervious).
- If separating the conscious mind from the subconscious, the user may accidentally create a split personality.
- Users of Mental Barrier Destruction can remove created barriers.
- This may only work if the power itself is consciously controlled. (e.g. Teleportation, Fire Manipulation. If the power itself is passive or instinctive, like Invulnerability, Regenerative Durability, or Auto-Reflexes, then it won't work).
