Empathy

Empathy is the ability to sense how another person is feeling and to share that same feeling with the other person, usually acting in a compassionate manner. A person among telepaths who is born with this ability is usually referred to as an empath.

In the EMPATH: The Luckiest Smurf story series, the main character Empath was born with an empathetic nature which was seemingly erased when the Psyche Master had erased Empath of any memory he had of being a Smurf during his infancy, but as it turns out, this empathetic nature was merely suppressed and would in time slowly resurface in Empath's relations with his fellow Smurfs and with other beings.
