All Jabocorns are born with mental powers, their horns act like radio broadcast towers. The longer they are, the stronger the signal and further they can project their powers. The fems by no fault of their own have very short horns, with enough power to carry around the weight of a full blade or two.
Cutting off both arms like the lads won't result in a noticeable power boost so they always keep one arm around, as such are better suited as ambassadors / representatives of the Jabocorn race for diplomacy, politics and trade. Hard to shake on a deal if there's no hand to shake.
Doesn't mean they're stuck with magisterial roles. They have better situational awareness, can quickly look around without suffering whiplash from heavy horns like the boys, and are more agile. As such they can be Sanctioned Strays speciliazing as scouts, cartographers and messangers.

Psychic and alikes always give me mixed feelings, especially the missing limb(s) part: you learn more and overcome limits without the use of arms, yet you somehow use them when it's always here.
Not until you are voluntarily losing one or two arms, and see if they are helping, or hindering you.

I like the idea that since they are shorter, the scout has opted for four dagger/kunai blades, and I can just imagine the whizzing blender sound of them whipping about in interlaced fashion, sort of like this
Do they *have* to lose arms to boost their powers?
I still feel like it should be possible for them to have a sort of 'blade arm'; a metallic arm with clawed fingertips or with blades contained in them that they could use for both fighting and basic manual tasks. Still, it's a very interesting concept. Good work!
