So I understand the basic idea of telepathy, you can talk to someone in their head. But since I have a character who has telepathy in my campaign some questions have arisen.

Can they talk back?

Can he read thoughts unwillingly?

etc and so forth.

Basically I can't find anywhere it is described in detail.

Yes and no, respectively. The Telepathy special quality describes this. You can communicate with anyone within range that has a language. Communication is just like conversation -- you can hear them when they talk back to you but can't read their mind.
