Default Re: Quick Question: How to build a telepathic Ally(?) that lives in another plane?

Well it's an Ally, probably with Summonable (even if you can't get the ally to visit "in person," by showing up in spirit and doing his thing, he's effectively there).

Adding in the Mindlink just makes it easier for the PC to summon him. Allies as written can get you into trouble without being Dependents. Frankly I'd do without the quirk-level Dependent and have it be GM authority unless you really want the PC to be called out on solo missions totally randomly.

What's the ability that's being limited?

The difference is that said Ally would be on the Whatever Plane instead of alongside the PC most of the time, which I figured was part of the Ally idea, but I could be wrong.
