6E Mental awareness and mind links

[RockSunner]

Suppose a person with Mental Awareness observes a person who is the receiver of a Mink Link, but the sender is not immediately in view. Can the observer tell from which direction the Link is coming from, and possibly triangulate the location of the sender as the receiver moves around? Is there a standard advantage or adder to Mental Awareness that would make this possible? Thanks.

As discussed on APG 95, Mental Awareness allows a character to perceive the “connection” between the character generating the Mind Link and the character Linked to him. That includes being able to identify who’s generating the Mind Link and who’s just in the Link, unless the GM rules otherwise based on special effects or other reasons. As to what other information a character may be able to derive by perceiving the connection, I leave that to the cleverness of the player and the discretion of the ever-sagacious GM. ;)
