Psychic link

A psychic link was a link between two individuals.

Usage

 * The Doctor possessed a psychic link with his other incarnations whenever they were in the same era of space and time. This enabled the individual incarnations to share thoughts and information amongst themselves, or even combine their mental efforts against an opponant. (DW: The Three Doctors, The Five Doctors, The Two Doctors) A psychic link could also be performed by multiple alternate reality versions of the same incarnation of the Doctor. (PDA: Spiral Scratch)


 * Prisoner Zero used psychic links to link with the minds of several people around Leadworth, who were put into comas as a result, and taken to Royal Leadworth Hospital. This allowed him to take on the form each individual person was dreaming about. Rory Williams noticed the patients around the village, so took photos of Prisoner Zero on his Blackberry mobile. The Doctor used these pictures to help the Atraxi locate Prisoner Zero. Prisoner Zero continued to tell the Doctor he would take on another form, but the Doctor told him that it took months to form such a link. Prisoner Zero then activated a psychic link with Amy Pond, as he had spent twelve years in a room in Amy's house. The Doctor used the link to force Prisoner Zero to take on its own form, alerting the Atraxi to its location. (DW: The Eleventh Hour)
