Powers: Sapient-Only Telepathy
By default, telepathic abilities from GURPS Psionic Powers affect all creatures with a mind. The book provides an option to add Racial, -20% to all mind-affecting abilities, if psis in the setting can only affect creatures of their own species or very close species. The book even provides recalculated costs for this option. However, what if we want to do what GURPS Magic does with the Mind Control college and limit mind-affecting abilities to sapient subjects? Then we have to apply Accessibility, Only on sapient beings, -10% and recalculate the costs again. Here's the result for convenience.

* Cost is a flat 5 points if you have
Suggestion (or is free if you only have the first level of Suggestion).
** Since the ability has Specialized, Humans,
-40% by default (and can be taken like that), the cost is listed for the case
when Specialized, Humans, -40% is replaced with Accessibility, Only sapient
beings, -10%.
