Far Thoughts.

The dragon is aware of any creature that uses a psionic ability or communicates telepathically within 100 miles of it. As an action, the dragon can psionically observe a creature, object, or location it is familiar with within 100 miles. While observing a subject in this way, the dragon can see, hear, and communicate telepathically, but it is blind and deaf in regard to its physical senses and does not require food or water. The dragon can psionically observe a subject indefinitely and can end this effect and return to its own senses as an action.

Innate Spellcasting.

The dragons spellcasting ability is Charisma (save DC 15). It can innately cast the following spells, requiring no material components.

**3/Day Each:**comprehend languages, Detect Thoughts
