Prerequisite: Collective class feature.

Benefit: You may attempt to force a living creature into your collective as a standard action. The target may attempt a Will save (DC 10 + half manifester level level + Wisdom modifier) to resist. If the target fails the save, it may attempt another Will save at the same DC every 24 hours thereafter, but is otherwise unable to leave the collective unless you allow it.

If you expend your psionic focus while using this feat, the action required to attempt to force a living creature into your collective is instead a move action.

Normal: Only willing creatures may be added to a collective. Creatures may leave the collective as a free action.

Special: Creatures forced into your collective using Unwilling Participant are considered willing members for any collective-related effects unless they succeed on another Will save at the same DC to resist being forced into the collective. A successful save means the creature resisted the specific effect but is still a member of the collective.
