Hello brave adventures,
Is a psionic able to cast "See the invisible" on others ? I would say no. My Player argues yes, because the description does not say anything against it.
Whats your opinion ?
Can a psionic cast See the invisible on other players?

No, that power is only available to the psychic himself. Most psionic powers work that way.
The spell of the same name, however, can be cast on others.

No, a psionic power cannot be cast on another unless it specifically is called out, usually under Range. "See the Invisible" only lists the distance the psychic can see an invisible item/creature.

Psionic abilities are not spells, so they are not 'cast', they are 'used'.
Point out the first five words of the descriptive text. They only talk about the char using the powers.
May you be blessed with the ability to change course when you are off the mark.

Player is wrong on 2 counts. Unless the description specifically states it can be used by others, No, it can not. Count 2: GM is always right unless they are Wrong, in which case, see first part.

To start psi powers are 'used', not 'cast'. That is what wizards do...cast magic.
The psi power 'see the invisible' has a range of 'self'. There is no mechanic to let them use that power so others can see the invisible.
As a general rule any sensorary boosting psi powers only effect the user. It would take something like the spell Hivemind for others to be effected by 'self'/'self only' psi power. Even then it would only be the other seeing what the psionic sees 2nd hand.
