How exactly is the Esper Aura concealable?

If it's just not using your Esper powers, then I'd say it is 0 points.

If an Esper always knows an Esper, it's 10 (that's how the Mystic Aura works).

Somewhere in between is 5 (maybe Espers must use a drug or make an Ego roll to hide their nature, and can't do that when using their powers). 

Just imo, natch.
