A potion of ESP is a potion introduced in SLASH'EM. It grants intrinsic telepathy temporarily if uncursed and permanently if blessed. If cursed, removes intrinsic telepathy.

Strategy

A character is by no means guaranteed to find a floating eye corpse; a blessed potion of ESP can be a useful way to gain the intrinsic for such unlucky ones. They are also useful for non-chaotic characters wishing to commit murder who lack a tinning kit.

For players who already possess telepathy and don't anticipate losing it, these potions are a good candidate for dilution.
