Unless noted otherwise, all psionic powers:

• Require no verbal components.
• Require no material components.

Psionic powers which do not produce a physical effect require no somatic components. This would include clairsentience, most telepathic attacks and utility powers, metabolic control, etc.

Those powers which do involve physical effects require a component unless otherwise stated. Depending on the area of effect of a given power, the default somatic requirement is as follows:

• Close burst, centered circle, or emanation: none
• Cone, line, or ray: a single hand or arm
• Burst, circle, square(s), path, wall, etc: two hands, to shape and confine the area.

As a psion, you have an Energy attribute, which represents the amount of psionic energy you have stored within your mind. It is defined as:

• Maximum value: Psion level + Charisma score
• Recharge rate: does not recharge on its own (see Regaining Energy)

When you manifest a psionic power, it is assumed that you spend a nominal amount of Energy, which is considered "0". However, you may expend additional energy to modify the power, increasing its intensity, or augmenting its capabilities.

Spending Energy

You may expend Energy to enhance a single power as you manifest it. You may do this to produce the following effects:

• Empower: For each point of Energy spent, you may increase a power's damage (or healing) by +50%.

Energy Threshold

Your Energy Threshold is precisely 10.

Any time you spend an amount of Energy on a single power that exceeds this threshold, you gain Strain.

• To determine how much Strain you suffer, use the following formula:
  • Strain suffered = energy spent / 10, rounded up, minus 1

Regaining Energy

To regain Energy, you may use the following actions:

• Tap Vitality: At-will, free; you suffer 1 or more points of Fatigue. For each point suffered, you regain 10% of your maximum Energy, rounded up.
• Meditation: Concentration; you meditate, unable to take actions, but still aware of your surroundings. For each ten minutes of concentration, you regain 5% of your Max Energy. (You may track your Energy with decimal places, but you can only spend integer amounts of Energy)

Utility

• Audiogram: Concentration, medium range; you cause sound to emanate from the area. Can be any sound of reasonable volume, such as one or more creatures talking. Energy cost is 1 per simultaneous source of sound, paid once per minute (or fraction thereof). Use Disguise skill to determine accuracy of any simulated creatures or objects.
• Hologram: Concentration, medium range; you create a purely visual illusion, comprising a volume equal to a sphere of radius 1 per energy point. Energy cost is paid once per minute or fraction thereof, and is based on the largest radius used during that period. Use Disguise skill to determine accuracy of any simulated creatures or objects.

Rank 2

Attack

• Energy Bomb: Recharge 33%, standard, long range, 1 square; energy (fire, frost, or lightning) coalesces into target square. Instantly, anyone in square suffers heavy damage. On your next turn, stored energy is released in a burst 5, inflicting heavy damage. You may choose instead to spend 1 Energy per round to continue coalescing energy, causing instant damage to repeat, gaining +100% damage for each round, and delaying the final explosion. You may delay up to 2 times. The final explosion inflicts as much damage as the most recent instant damage, and its radius is increased by 5 squares for each round delayed.

Defense

• Electric Armor: At-will, swift, reserve, exclusive category (Armor); you are electrically charged. As an immediate action, you may cause a bolt of lightning to strike an enemy who attacks you within 5 squares, causing heavy lightning damage plus stun 1 rd. 1 charge per energy point reserved.

Utility

• X-Ray Vision: Concentration, short range; you bombard subject with x-rays, and as they return to you in backscatter, you sense their effect on your energy aura, effectively gaining the ability to see through solid objects. Depth varies by energy cost, which is paid once per minute. (Caution: prolonged use may cause cancer, but only in the target so maybe it's okay).
  • Minimum depth: 1 energy; sufficient to see through thin barriers such as paper, cloth, and very thin wood.
  • Light depth: 2 energy; sufficient to see through one inch of wood, half an inch of stone, or 1/8" of metal. Can see into the bodies of creatures.

Rank 3

Attack

• Energize: Recharge 33%, standard, medium range, 3 rounds; subject is energized. On turn start, for the duration, subject causes a close burst 5, inflicting heavy damage (fire, frost, or lightning) to himself and your enemies in the area.
• Energy Pulse: At-will, swift, reserve; you may reserve up to 5 Energy. As an immediate action, you may trigger an energy pulse in a close burst 5, causing enemies to suffer heavy damage (fire, frost, or lightning) per Energy reserved, and pushing them 5 (E). This ends the power.

Shaping

• Wall of Crystal: Encounter, swift, long range, wall 1/level, 5 rounds; wall of clear crystal blocks line of effect, but not line of sight. It's base HP are equal to heavy damage, doubled for each point of Energy spent (not +100%, but doubled). The wall absorbs all energies that try to pass through it (rather than directed at it), preventing teleportation directly through the wall.

Utility

• Create Energy Crystal: At-will, swift, reserve; you reserve up to 5 points of Energy, storing them in a crystal that this power creates. You may give the crystal to an ally, who may use it as an immediate action at any time, gaining 5 points of Energy in whatever form his class uses. This ends the power, though you do not immediately regain the reserved Energy, as it has been spent.

If the object of the implanted aversion is an individual or a physical object, she will prefer not to approach within 30 feet of it. If it is a word, she will try not to utter it; if it is an action, she will not willingly attempt to perform it; and if it is an event, she will not willingly attend it. The subject will take reasonable steps to avoid the object of its aversion, but will not put herself in jeopardy by doing so. Will ends (Variable-Duration Powers). Effect always ends if subject is forced to confront aversion.

After 1 min/level, you start suffering 1 Strain per minute; duration is per day (per location), not per manifestation.
• Object Reading: At-will, concentration, touch; you learn of a touched object's previous owner; as you concentrate, you learn, once per minute, in order, the last owner's: race, gender, age, alignment, how owner gained and lost the object, then learn of the previous owner, etc. After 1 min/level, you start suffering 1 Strain per minute; duration is per day (per object), not per manifestation.
• Read Thoughts: At-will, concentration, emanation (medium); you hear surface thoughts in area, though you must focus on one target to make sense of a particular train of thought. Creatures aware of your thought detection may attempt a Will save each round to suppress thoughts. After 1 min/level, you start suffering 1 Strain per minute; duration is per day, not per manifestation.
• Sensitivity to Psychic Impressions: At-will, concentration; you open yourself to psychic impressions. Intense emotions and thoughts, such as those during a crisis, leave a lasting impression on an area and on objects involved. The amount of time the impressions linger is based on how intense they were. Exactly what you see and experience using this power is up to the DM. Warning: opening yourself to traumatic experiences can cause Strain and/or sympathetic damage.

All spells and powers manifested in this area cost this much more Energy to manifest (does not discriminate between friend and foe). (Example: you set the cost at 3. An enemy spellcaster using Vitae will find his spells 0% effective at Vitae costs from 0 to 3. At 3, the spells are 100% effective, rather than the usual 400%.)
• Mind Trap: At-will, swift, short range, reserve 1 (E); if subject is attacked by a mental effect, the effect is negated, and the attacker's mind is trapped (stunned, Will ends).

Shaping

Utility

• Mind Switch: At-will, swift, touch, reserve, costs 3 Energy; you swap minds with a willing subject. You command subject's body, and she commands yours. Both of you retain all class levels and learned abilities, but use the target body's physical stats instead of your own.
• Psychic Sight: At-will, swift, reserve 3, costs 3 Energy; you gain psychic sight, the ability to sense the thoughts of any creature within a radius of 1 square per Wisdom bonus.

You see through all figments, glamers, and form-altering transmutations.
• Remote Viewing Trap: At-will, swift, centered circle 10, reserve, costs 5 Energy; if any creature attempts to use remote viewing or scrying on any subject in the area, the attempt fails, and the offender suffers 500% heavy psychic damage.

You are never surprised or flat-footed. When you ready an action, you need not specify what action you are readying, or what contingency will trigger it. When you delay, you may act before, not after the creature who is next to go. Your contingencies may respond to your foresight of an event, rather than the actual event.

Rank 1

The lifting force is a general, surrounding force, causing no damage to the subject. You may move the object in three dimensions, keeping it within range, a number of squares per round equal to Short range. When you let go of the creature, the effect ends. The subject is allowed a Will save to end. Energy cost repeats each round.

Instantly, and on each of your next 2 rounds as a free action, you may slam the subject into a hard, unyielding surface, or into another creature or object, inflicting heavy physical damage split between subject and the other creature or object (or suffered entirely by subject, if crushing against a solid surface). If you lift an inanimate object and use it to smash against other targets, the targets take 100% damage, while the object takes the normal 50%. While gripped, subject cannot move, but may take actions. Fort ends.

At any time within the next 10 rounds, as a free action, if you are standing in the center square, you may collapse the field onto yourself, and project the energy in a beam (long range), inflicting the sum of all tallied damage onto the target, and ending the power.

Shaping

• Matter Manipulation: Recharge 33%, swift, medium range; target creature or object up to 100 lbs/level is fundamentally altered. You may change the physical structure of the component particles, or change phase (solid, liquid, gas, etc). You may change the substance into any other that can be comprised of the same elements.

The green copy is immune to lightning, but 100% vulnerable to physical damage. The copies have the same abilities as the original, and may act independently. They do not have hit points; however, tally all damage done to them. At any point, to a maximum of 3 rounds later, you may cause the copies to merge into their original self, and the subject suffers all damage that was tallied.

Utility

• Greater Temporal Acceleration: As Lesser Temporal Acceleration, except it is an immediate action, and costs 5 Energy.
• Rearrange: Recharge 25%, standard, close burst 20; you may arrange all creatures and objects within the area however you wish, changing their positions to any valid new positions within the area. This is not a teleportation effect, and ignores any pinning, cover, or movement-impairing effects.

Overclock

You may "borrow" points from other ability scores and add them to your Intelligence.

• Your borrowing limit from each score is equal to your Metamind level.
• You may borrow from any score except Intelligence.
• You may only invest borrowed points in Intelligence.

Aside from the obvious disadvantages of lowering your other ability scores, you suffer the additional penalty of Strain Vulnerability. This means that, whenever you suffer Strain for any reason while Overclock is active, you suffer an additional point of Strain.

Focus

As a metamind, you have an attribute called Focus.

• Minimum value: 0
• Maximum value: 5
• Assumed value at combat start: 0

Each time you spend Energy on a psionic power, you gain 1 Focus per point of Energy spent.

You may spend 5 Focus to enhance certain psionic powers in specific ways, detailed below:

Creation

• Energy Burst: ?
• Energy Ray: Super-focused beam cuts like a laser, causing a major injury (or critical injury on a critical hit). Also gains +200% damage.

Mentalism

• Id Insinuation: Damage is heavy instead of medium. Throughout duration, subject is dominated.
• Mind Thrust: Subject's head explodes (Will partial; suffers 50% max hp damage instead). Elites and bosses suffer 50/10% of max hp in damage instead (25/5 on save).

Variation

Psicrystal

See the d20 SRD.

Also, you may transfer Energy into or out of your psicrystal by touch. Its capacity is 25% of yours.

Damage Control

As a Metamind, you are under a lot of strain, what with all the Strain you're suffering. Good thing you can route it elsewhere!

At will, you may remove any number of Strain points you have. For each point so removed, you suffer 1 point of damage to the ability score of your choice.

Ability damage generally heals at the rate of 1 point per day of rest, though this rate can be accelerated with the help of a healer.

Font of Power

Three times per day, you may attempt to become a Font of Power. This is a free action, and can be attempted at most once per round. The success chance is 33%, plus 33% for each previous failed attempt.

Once you succeed at becoming a Font of Power, you have limitless Energy. You may spend as much as you wish, and you will still have as much as you started with. Additionally, your eyes shine like tiny stars, and faint illumination seems to beam out of your mouth and the end of each of your fingers.

This does not remove your Energy Threshold.

The effect lasts up to 3 rounds, or until you cancel it. Afterward, you are restored to maximum Energy.

Uncarnate

At will, you may separate your mind from your body. Your body remains behind, helpless, while you form a new "body", an incorporeal mass of light and thought.

Your new body can fly at a speed equal to your walking speed (this doubles for each level you achieve beyond 10th, to no limit; a typical psion will achieve light speed somewhere around level 35).

As an incorporeal entity, your new body is immune to all mundane physical effects, suffering damage only from magic and magic weapons (and of course psionic attacks). Conversely, your body is not capable of physical manipulation, but it is fully capable of manifesting psychic powers. (Note to multiclassers: it is not capable of verbal or material components).

There is a Strain cost for maintaining this ability. You must pay 1 Strain for each unit of time you maintain it. The unit of time changes with level:

At level 20, there is no longer any Strain cost.

• Warp Bubble: Recharge 33%, immediate, 1 round; all space around you is warped, so that an object traveling directly toward you will harmlessly bypass you while retaining its original trajectory. The curvature of the warp field is gentle, so the closer an object is to you, the less likely it is to entirely bypass you. Against all targeted attacks and spells, you gain a miss chance equal to 10% per square of distance between you and the attacker.

Rank 5

• Temporal Lock: Recharge 33%, swift, reserve; attackers who strike you suffer temporal stasis for 1 round (Will negates). If the save is failed, the attack does not affect you. Each time this occurs, you must expend 1 point of Energy, or the effect ends.

Psionic Augmentation

You may use Energy to augment your melee attacks. You gain knowledge of the following maneuvers, at the appropriate level.

Rank 1

• Computed Strike: (E) Augment; attack gains +25% (E) to Hit Chance and Armor Penetration.
• Energy Lance: (E) Augment; attack becomes a line 2*(E), starting at the point of impact of the closest target. All damage is energy (fire, frost, or lightning).
• Force Blast: (E) Augment; enemy is pushed 5 (E) squares. Upon impact with object, creature, or wall, inflicts extra damage equal to 50% of base damage, divided between enemy and whatever he hits (or enemy only if striking a wall). If enemy doesn't strike anything, he is knocked down.

Rank 2

• Stunning Strike: (E) Augment; attack stuns target for (E) rounds.

Rank 3

• Catapsionic Strike: (E) Augment; attack dispels (E) magical or psionic defenses prior to inflicting damage.

Rank 4

Rank 5

Combat Insight

You have an attribute called Insight. It's value is 4 + Psychic Warrior rank.

• You may divide Insight between: offensive precognition, defensive precognition, and hyperawareness.
• You may change the distribution as a free action once/rd.
• Each point of Offensive Precognition grants +5% hit and critical chance.
• Each point of Defensive Precognition grants +5% to avoidance, and increases your minimum avoidance by 5% (allowing you to Dodge the un-dodgeable).
• Each point of Hyperawareness grants you 1 square of radius of Insight, a form of vision that allows you to sense the position and movements of any creature or object within it, regardless of stealth, invisibility, or number of targets tracked. Subjects within it cannot benefit from flanking. You can apply your Parry (and Dodge, of course) to targets in any arc within this radius.

Speed of Thought

You gain +1 to movement and initiative per 4 levels of Psychic Warrior.

Metaphysical Weapon

You gain the following maneuver:

• Manifest Metaphysical Weapon: at-will, free; you create a metaphysical weapon, or augment your held weapon(s). Lasts while conscious, or until dismissed.

A metaphysical weapon is a psionic construct that can either serve as a weapon when you have none available, or can wrap itself around your existing weapon to augment it. In the former case, it inflicts damage as a normal weapon, of type based on the table below. In the latter, it adds 100% damage to your weapon of the type below.

Available types: force, fire, lightning, frost.

Arbitrarily, this doesn't work on heavy-damage weapons. Welcome to playing a hybrid.

Hypercognition

You can increase the speed of your mind, allowing you to perceive the world faster, to think and plan faster, to calculate complex variables amidst the rapidly-changing conditions of combat.

• Each time you use Hypercognition, you gain 1 point of Strain.
• Using Hypercognition is a immediate action; its effect lasts for 1 round.
• Using Hypercognition causes the clock speed of your brain to increase about 10 times. Thus, for each second of real time, you perceive about 10 seconds; this grants you an entire "minute" of thought-time per round of combat.

While Hypercognition is active:

• You gain 100% of the maximum benefit of Combat Insight, as if you had put all all available points into all 3 uses simultaneously.
• Your Psionic Augmentations last for 1 round, affecting all attacks that round.

Fission

Three times per day, as a free action, you may split yourself into two identical copies. All physical and magical properties are duplicated. Each of your copies may act independently. Neither is considered "the original". If one copy dies, the other simply lives on. If one attacks or manifests any psychic power, the other is bound by this limitation: should the second "you" also attack or manifest a psychic power, it disappears at the end of its round. If the two forms are ever separated beyond Long range, one (you select) disappears.

This ability grants great utility and perhaps fun prank opportunities, as well as a way to double your damage output for 3 rounds per day.

Fusion

Once per day, as a free action, you may fuse yourself with any single corporeal being (touch range). While fused, you and the being share a body, and your minds are in intimate contact (you hear each others' thoughts).

Form and Capabilities

The new body is of average size between your original two; that is, if you were both the same size, it doesn't change, whereas if you are medium and the original was huge, the new body is large. Its form is an amalgam of both; if either body is larger, that body has proportionately more effect on the final form. If the host is unwilling, the body may appear to contort itself as both minds fight to control its form.

:The body's capabilities are gestalt; that is, for each physical ability score, choose the higher of the original two bodies, and the new body can take any physical attack that was previously allowed to either form. The new form's AC is the higher of the two, and any defenses (and vulnerabilities) of the original two are combined into the new form (like defenses/vulnerabilities overlap, they don't stack). Any damage already sustained by either form is combined into the new form.

Items

The new body has all items of the original two. It has the average number of limbs between the original two, so excess held items must be discarded at your discretion. Likewise, worn items conflict, and duplicates must be discarded as you direct.

Actions

The body has the normal amount of actions per round. Either you or the original inhabitant can control it. If both wish to control it at the same time, the winner of an opposed Int+Cha+level check wins for that round.

Duration

If the host is unwilling, he may attempt a Will save to end the effect, but only if he gains control of the body's actions for that round. Otherwise, there are no limitations on duration.

Ending the Effect

You may end the effect at any time as a free action, splitting both bodies into their original forms, now adjacent, and retaining their original items (if not discarded). Any damage the new form had suffered can be split as you direct: you may absorb all, part, or none of it.

Permanent Fusion

If you wish, you may also permanently modify the new body into your own. You do this by passing 3 consecutive level+Int+Cha checks, and the subject failing a final Will save afterward. If all goes well, the body becomes your original, and you lose the benefits of the Fusion. The host's body is effectively annihilated. His mind is trapped within your new body; you may do what you like with it.

Every-Moment Satori

At all times, you have a minimum investment in all forms of Combat Insight equal to 1/3 of your maximum, rounded down.
