Universities of Technical and Scholarly learning, schools and towers of Majick, the various orders of Jedi and Sith....But few people or organizations actively delve into and train the powers of the mind.

We, Cats Keep, are a nation of Psionics, and our ruler, the Lady Shalamar, is acknowledged as the most powerful amongst us. She has bid us, The Five Towers of Cats Keep, to open our doors for the first time in our nations history to select students from other nations.

Psionics, the ability to use, and to master the various mental abilities is NOT the same as the ability to use 'the Force'. The two are essentially different, though the external appearances / resutlts may be similar. One may be innately talented in one or two or all three - Majick, the Force or Psionics.

Please send the applications of potential students to:
Tar Tir Barad Dur Naur,
Cats Keep, Fatal Terrain,
Earth
