Another quick question
« on: March 20, 2010, 10:25:06 PM »
I have a question about human morphs, what is the reason for the fact that Tobias, The Visser, and Ax (to name a few) can't use thought-speak when they are in human morph? Is there a specific reason for this or is it just something that has been overlooked by the author?
Meh.

If there is any mention in the books, saying that they can't, then it's a KASU. It is as how you've already said: human morphs for anyone (Ax, V3, Tobias, and the others Anis) are just like other morphs where they are able to use thought-speak.

They should be able to. It's just like any other morph where the morpher's mind goes to Z-Space and controls the body from there. I assume Ax doesn't do it because he likes to make mouth sounds. the others I don't know why.

it was a mistake, in later books ax and tobias both do use it.

It never said they couldn't. Ax used thought-speak while human in #35. Visser Three most likely didn't use it while human because he always wants to make himself known to everyone around him.

When did Tobias use it? I don't remember that.

He never seemed like one for private thought-speech though. When he gave orders and such, everyone could hear it.

Tobias thought-speaks while in human morph in #47 and, I believe, #49.

In #8 The Alien, it says Ax can`t thought-speak while in human morph.  That is a KASU. In later books, Ax does thought-speak in human morph.
