Thank you for your help! I think I'll discuss with my GM both using telepathy for both "a whole different concept which enables you to physically find memories and info in the dream, like documents." and buying the powers only vs sleeping/ unconscious characters. Being my first character built with this system, and seeing the immense amount of rules I need to take into consideration, I might just keep it simple and build a "brick" at first, keep this complicated idea for my next one. I need to see what happens during the game to understand how useful some of these skills can be (I'm afraid I might end up with a character which looks cool but doesn't actually do much, also considering I have a max of 300 points to spend limitations included)

Thank you all for your help, it all sounds so complicated I'll need to read through your posts and check the books at the same time LOL. I do understand that the dreamworld is an alternate reality and the idea of Inception style powers is actually not feasible (the film is based on the idea that you enter a person's mind when you enter a dream, a whole different concept whaich enables you to phisically find memories and info in the dream, like documents, and you don't need to use telepathy at all). I think I understood how the concept of +30 roll works for telepathy, my roll must be +30 compared to the victim's MD+EGO (after I have already defeated him on MDCV, otherwise the attack has no effect: just like any punch/shot, my OCV against his DCV and action roll). One question, is the victim's MD always on the same level? I mean, from a realistic point of view a person's mental defenses should be lower doing sleep or other situations ("hot" ones for example). Is that so or not?

Thank you both After checking the Telepathy grid (enter into unconscious thoughts with +30 on MDCV) entering dreams to extract information seems an entertaining but rather complicated way to do it. It might make some sense if the GM accords me some advantages using dreams (the person is dreaming, logically his/her MDCV should be lower or I can physically find the secrets as it happens in the movie).

Hello everybody I am new to this gaming system and I need some help with the Enter the dreamworld power (as found in Power book ed. 6). There is an option "can bring another character" but it doesn't explain much. I'd like to know: If I do bring another person does he disapper from real world and comes in his physical form or just as "spirit"? Can he actually interact with the dreamworld or only see what happens? What if he gets injured or dies (from "normal injuries" not "dream blast") in the dream? Does he take any damage and eventually dies in the real world? Honestly I haven't even fully understood whether I may get injured myself for real, while I am in a drem. I am trying to create a character with Inception-style powers, using dream-reading and maybe dreamweaver. Any other suggestions are welcome. Thank you
