==== Secrets of the Psilobe Explained ''by the Hive-Mind known as [[ProjectGorgon:Forgaxis]]''====
: Suppose you found an unusual biped, perhaps a human, who presented psychic powers. Were you to dissect this biped, you would not find any physical source of their psychic abilities. The best explanation available is that portions of a psychic's brain exist in a parallel dimension. This might explain why most psychics are able to telepathically "speak" to each other: they can project waveforms in a different dimension, one which other psychics are able to "hear" in. But this is pure conjecture. Let us return to facts.

: Were you to dissect a fallen Red Wing mantis, you would likewise find no physical evidence of their psychic powers, for they are from an earlier generation of psi-mantis. But were you to dissect a late-generation or "true" psi mantis, such as a [[ProjectGorgon:Forgaxis]] member or a mantis from the [[ProjectGorgon:Great City of Insects]], you would find a special brain lobe called the psilobe.

: The psilobe is the invention of our progenitor, the great wizard [[ProjectGorgon:Dalvos]]. It acts as a neural processor of psychic information, allowing us to coalesce other mantis's emanations into every kind of stimulus: visual, audible, olfactory, pain, even emotions. This allows us to perfectly communicate thoughts between each other.

: The psilobe also lets us link dozens of mantises together to create a hive mind in times of danger, so we can act with precision in unison. And some mantis gangs, such as Forgaxis, the author of this book, choose to remain in a hive mind permanently, becoming one sentient organism with dozens of bodies.

====Psilobes Provide Genetic Reliability====
: Our research shows that psychic creatures without psilobes are not necessarily less psychically powerful than true psi-mantises, and some have greater psychic power. So what is the point of the psilobe? Genetic reliability. While many races produce occasional individuals with psychic ability, their offspring do not reliably inherit those traits. Even when two psychic bipeds mate, their offspring will have unpredictable capabilites, or sometimes no psychic abilities at all.

: Thanks to psilobes, every true psi-mantis has a basic set of psychic tools that allow them to work in harmony and efficiency. Some mantises enjoy other unique psychic gifts as well, but all can at least communicate with each other and participate in the joy of the Hive Mind.

: We are still discovering new secrets of the psilobe; its mysteries are only beginning to unfold. Future editions of this book will include new information when it becomes available."
