Quick Question

[Diamond Spear]

I don’t have my book with me at the moment and I need to know the official rule on if the mental powers of Mind Link, Telepathy, Mind Control and Mental Illusions automatically "turn off" if the mentalist is knocked out? Thanks much.

5ER, pg 118:


Once a character successfully uses a continuing-
eff ect Mental Power, he need not pay END to
maintain the eff ect — the target continues to follow
the order, see the illusion, or communicate at the
same level until he resists the eff ect with a successful
Breakout Roll. If a character using a continuing-
eff ect Mental Power is Stunned or Knocked
Out, the Power continues to aff ect the target. If a
character has a continuing-eff ect Mental Power
in a Multipower or Variable Power Pool, he may
use the Power on a target, then switch to another
slot or Power without “erasing” the eff ects of the
Power. However, he would have to recover from
being Stunned, wake up, or switch the Framework
back to that Power, and then succeed with an ECV
Attack Roll against the target, to change the Power
in any way or to keep paying END to prevent the
target from getting bonuses to his Breakout Roll. If
the character loses his LOS on the target, the Power
continues to aff ect the target and the character may
continue to feed it END or attempt to change the
level of eff ect.
