Psychic Mimic [Psionic]
You can easily mimic the psionic powers of others.
Prerequisites: Psicraft 4 ranks
Benefit: You can attempt to manifest powers known by another character (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/psionic/psionicPowersOverview.htm#manifestAnUnknownPowerFr omAnothersPowersKnown) without making physical contact with them, as long as they are within 30 ft. of you. You must still take a full-round action to make contact with them and access their powers, and they must still be willing, but you do not have to be in physical contact with them. If you move more than 30 ft. away from that character at any time, you lose your access to their powers. In addition, you gain a +4 bonus on all Psicraft checks made when manifesting powers known by another character.

Forceful Mimicry [Psionic]
You can rip powers from the mind of another.
Prerequisites: Psychic Mimic, Psicraft 8 ranks
Benefit: You can manifest powers known by another character even if that character is unwilling. Doing so works just like manifesting powers known by a willing character, except that after you successfully make contact, an unwilling character may attempt a Will save, DC 10 + ½ your manifester level + your manifesting stat. If the save is successful, your contact is broken, and you cannot attempt to make contact with that character again for 24 hours.

Improved Psychic Mimic [Psionic]
You can tap into another manifester’s psionic powers with almost no effort.
Prerequisites: Psychic Mimic, Psicraft 8 ranks
Benefit: You only need to take a move action, rather than a full-round action, to establish contact with another psionic character when attempting to manifest powers known by them. You do not need to make a Psicraft check in order to make contact with another character, although you must still make the checks required to understand and manifest a power. You can manifest a power from another’s powers known in the same round you make contact with them, as long as you can still take the action required to manifest the power.

Greater Psychic Mimic [Psionic]
You can draw on the powers of those around you as if they were your own.
Prerequisites: Psychic Mimic, Improved Psychic Mimic, Psicraft 15 ranks.
Benefit: The range at which you can make contact with other psionic characters in order to manifest their powers increases to 60 ft. You do not need to make a Psicraft check in order to understand a psionic power known by another, although you must still make a check to manifest another’s powers. You can manifest powers that are not from your class list, although the Psicraft DC to manifest such powers increases by 5. After making contact and understanding a power, you have access to that power for 3 rounds, instead of one. You may manifest that power multiple times, or manifest other powers, without losing access to that power. Instead, you only lose access once the three rounds are up, or if you become further than 60 ft. from the character you gained the power from.

Do you need to expend power points to manifest their powers, or do you steal those too?

The way manifesting powers from another person works, you have to spend your own pp.

Whoops. Shoud've read that. Do you get any bonus from mental contact, like from a Telepathic Bond? Can you steal psi-like abilities?

No to both, although they seem like interesting ideas...I might work up something like that.
