POWERS Allergic Overdrive Psychometabolism Level: Egoist 3, Psion/Wilder 5 Display: Olfactory Manifesting Time: 1 standard action Range: Close (25 feet +5 feet/2 levels) Target: One living creature Duration: 1 hour/level Saving Throw: Fortitude partial (see below) Power Resistance: Yes Power Points: Egoist 5, Psion/ Wilder 9 You cause the metabolism of your target to react to everything from air to food as an invading allergen, causing the target to suffer extreme allergic reactions against everything. Once you manifest this power your target must make an initial Fortitude save and an additional save every hour that the power lasts. Each time he fails his Fortitude save he takes 2d6 points of damage as his body attacks itself, and he becomes exhausted for the next hour. If he succeeds, he is no longer exhausted for the next hour. Augment: You can augment this power in any of the following ways. For every 3 power points you spend, you can affect an additional target. If you expend your psionic focus, the range becomes Medium instead of Close. If you spend 6 additional power points, the duration increases to 1 day/level.
Awakening Telepathy Level: Psion/wilder 5, Society Mind 5 Display: Visual, Auditory, Mental Manifesting Time: 8 hours Range: Touch Target: One target touched Duration: Permanent Saving Throw: No [harmless] Power Resistance: Yes Power Points: 9, XP; see text You create an onus of psychic energy focused on the target you wish to awaken, binding this psionic energy into it and bringing it into full awareness of the world, even awakening its own internal psionic potential. The awakened target is friendly toward you. You have no special empathy or connection with a creature you awaken, although it serves you in specific tasks or endeavors if you communicate your desires to it. The target is granted an Intelligence, Wisdom, and Charisma score equal to 3d6 (if it already has Wisdom and Charisma scores, it retains its original scores if the newly rolled scores would be lower). Every awakened creature gains the Wild Talent feat as a bonus feat.
You can awaken an animal or plant, but this power does not grant the awakened creature the ability to move if it did not have it before. An awakened animal becomes a magical beast, whereas an awakened plant retains its plant type. XP Cost: 25 experience points per hit die of the creature to be awakened. Augment: You can augment this power in any of the following ways. For every additional power point you spend, the manifesting time goes down by 1 hour, to a minimum of 1 hour. If you spend 2 additional power points, you can awaken a mindless undead creature. If you spend 4 additional power points and 25 additional experience points per hit die, you can awaken a vermin. The vermin loses its mindless trait. If you spend 6 additional power points and 50 additional experience points per hit die, you can awaken an ooze. The ooze loses its mindless trait. If you spend 8 additional power points and 175 additional experience points per hit die, you can awaken a construct. It gains an Intelligence score equal to 3d6 and +1d3 to Charisma and Wisdom. If you spend 6 power points less, you can grant an already sentient creature the Wild Talent feat as a free bonus feat.

Psionic Powers Power Resistance: No Power Points: 7 You summon a sheet of ectoplasm which covers your body and bends all light which hits you, making you effectively invisible to the naked eye. When you manifest this power you become invisible for the duration of the power, even if you manifest other powers or attack. Drawing attention to yourself makes it easier to spot you, but does not end the invisibility effect. Augment: You can augment this power in any of the following ways. If you spend 3 power points less, your invisibility ends if you manifest a power or attack. If you spend 2 power points, the duration becomes 10 min./level. If you spend 6 power points, the duration becomes 1 hour/level. If you expend your focus when manifesting this power, the manifesting time becomes 1 swift action. Biodefense Psychometabolism Level: Egoist 1, Psychic Warrior 2, Psion/Wilder 2 Display: None Manifesting Time: 1 standard action Range: Personal Target: Personal Duration: 1 min./level Saving Throw: None Power Resistance: No Power Points: Egoist 1, Psion/ Wilder 3, Psychic Warrior 3 You enhance the composition of your biotemplate, making it harder to change through transformational magic or morphing powers. Your self-awareness also increases during this time, making it easier for you to control your body. When you manifest this power, you gain PR12 + your manifester level versus all powers or spells which transform (from the
school of transformation or the psychometabolism discipline) you in any way, as well as a +4 enhancement bonus to Autohypnosis checks. Augment: You can augment this power in any of the following ways. For every additional power point you spend, the Autohypnosis bonus increases by 1.

If you spend 6 additional power points, the duration becomes 1 hour/ level instead. Biokinetic Boost Psychometabolism Level: Psychic Warrior 2, Egoist 3 Display: Physical Manifesting Time: 1 standard action Range: Personal Target: Personal Duration: 1 round/level Saving Throw: Fortitude negates (harmless) Power Resistance: Yes (harmless) Power Points: Psychic Warrior 3, Egoist 5 You biokinetically enhance your body, allowing you to better coordinate your natural attacks, which become fiercer. You move faster and strike harder, allowing you to become a whirlwind of destruction on the battlefield. When making a full attack action, you may make one extra attack with any natural attack. The attack is made using your full base attack bonus, plus any modifiers appropriate to the situation. You gain a +2 bonus on attack rolls and damage rolls with natural weapons and their threat range increases to 19-20 (this does not affect a natural weapon which already has a threat range of 19-20). All of your modes of movement, including land movement, burrow, climb, fly, and swim, increase by
5
30 feet, to a maximum of twice your normal speed for that form of movement. This increase counts as an enhancement bonus and affects your jumping distance as normal for increased speed. Augment: You can augment this power in any of the following ways. If you expend your psionic focus, the manifesting time becomes 1 swift action. If you spend 2 power points, the range changes from Personal to Touch, and you can affect one creature for every 3 levels. If you spend 2 power points, the duration becomes 1 min./level. For every 2 power points you spend, the bonus to attack and damage rolls increase by 2 and the enhancement bonus to movement increases by 10 feet. If you spend 1 power point less, you only gain the enhancement bonus to speed. Bioweaponry Psychometabolism Level: Egoist 1 Display: Visual Manifesting Time: 1 standard action Range: Personal Target: Personal Duration: 10 min/level Saving Throw: None Power Resistance: No Power Points: 1 You reshape one of your arms into a fearsome weapon made out of sharpened bone. Some Egoists manifest this as a bonesword, some as a cudgel or mace while others prefer to form spikes, claws, or even pincers. When you manifest this power, choose what type of damage your weapon will produce (bludgeoning, piercing or slashing). Your bioweapon counts as both a natural weapon and a manufactured weapon and does 1d6 + Str modifier damage, and you are always proficient with your
The Mind Unveiled bioweaponry. You cannot use the hand you manifested bioweaponry on. If you augment it to manifest two weapons, you gain two attacks at your base attack bonus as if you had two natural weapons, but you do not gain iterative attacks for a high base attack bonus. Regardless of the shape of the bioweaponry used, you cannot use feats like Weapon Focus: Longsword for bioweaponry even if it resembles a longsword. Augment: You can augment this power in any of the following ways. For every 2 power points you spend, the weaponry does an additional 1d6 of damage. If you spend 1 additional power point, the weapon counts as mastercrafted and gives you a +1 enhancement bonus to attack rolls. If you spend 2 additional power points, the weaponry can do an additional type of damage (choose another from the above list). If you spend 2 additional power points, you can form two weapons of the same type, granting you two attacks. Bite of the Wolf Psychometabolism Level: Psychic Warrior 1 Display: Visual Manifesting Time: 1 standard action Range: Personal Target: You Duration: 1 min./ level Power Points: 1 As bite of the wolf, except as noted below. For every 5 manifester levels, the damage increases by 1d8 (at 5th level your bite deals an extra 1d8 points of damage, at 10th level an extra 2d8, at 15th level an extra 3d8, and at 20th level an extra 4d8 points). Note that this is for a Medium sized creature, for a Small or Large creature, the additional damage dice change accordingly. Augment: You can augment this
power in any of the following ways. If you expend your psionic focus when manifesting this power, the duration increases to 10 minutes/ level. If you spend 4 additional power points, the duration increases to 1 hour/level. If you spend 6 additional power points, you manifest this power as a swift action. If you spend 8 additional power points, you manifest this power as a free action. Bloodhound Clairsentience Level: Seer 2 Display: Visual and mental Manifesting Time: 1 round Range: Personal Target: You Duration: 10 min./level Saving Throw: No Power Resistance: None Power Points: Seer 3 You pick up an object and focus intently on the last owner, gaining an understanding of the psychic aura attached to that person. This understanding allows you to trace his aura wherever he has gone and act as a mental bloodhound, following his trail unerringly. When you manifest this power you need either an object which was used by the person recently (within one day), or having manifested Object Reading or Sensitivity to Psychic Impressions and the target having featured prominently in these visions. Once you attune yourself to the individual aura, you can sense if this aura has been in the vicinity and in what direction it moved after leaving the general area. You cannot discern what the aura did there, how long it lingered, or what other auras were there without the use of other powers such as Object Reading. Augment: You can augment this power in any of the following ways. If you expend your psionic focus

while this power is active, you can learn for how long the aura lingered in a certain area. If you spend 2 additional power points, the range changes to Touch and the Target becomes One willing individual. If you spend 3 additional power points, the duration increases to 1 hour/level. Bright Armor Metacreativity Level: Shaper 1 Display: Visual Manifesting Time: 1 standard action Range: Personal Target: Personal Duration: 1 round/level Saving Throw: Reflex negates Power Resistance: No Power Points: 1 You summon a supercharged ectoplasmic sheet around you which explodes and creates a flash of light so bright and shocking that it blinds those caught looking at you. At times, this experience can be painful as nerves are overloaded. When you manifest this, all creatures capable of sight looking at you within 40 feet become blinded for 1 round unless they succeed on a Reflex save (to look away). Creatures which rely on non-optical sensing are immune. After the first round you can cause your ectoplasmic sheet to supercharge and explode in a flash of light as a swift action. Augment: You can augment this power in any of the following ways. For every power point you spend, this power does 1d6 of non-lethal damage to those who are blinded. For every power point you spend, the blindness lasts for 1 round longer. If you spend 5 power points, the duration becomes 1 minute/level and it no longer allows a save. (Saving Throw: None)

room. You gain a +10 insight bonus to Search rolls and if you manage a DC 25 Search check, you can draw conclusions which aren’t obvious to the naked eye, perhaps drawing upon information from before the event happened. Augment: You can augment this power in any of the following ways. For every 2 additional power points you spend, you gain an additional +5 insight bonus to your Search checks. For every additional power point you spend, the radius increases by 5 feet. Clamber Psychometabolism Level: Egoist 1, Psychic Warrior 1
Clairsentient Understanding Clairsentience Level: Seer 1 Display: Mental Manifesting Time: 10 minutes Range: 15 ft. radius Target: Area Duration: Instantenous Saving Throw: No Power Resistance: None Power Points: Seer 1 You meditate and allow your mind to reach out into an area to find clues which aren’t obvious to the naked eye, even extending a little into the past. You might for example notice that the door to the guards’ room was unlocked before the assault and that one of their beds wasn’t slept in. When you manifest this power you draw upon the unseen connection certain things have to an event you choose, for example an assault on a guards’
Display: Physical Manifesting Time: 1 swift action Range: Personal Target: Personal Duration: 1 min./level Saving Throw: No Power Resistance: No Power Points: 1 You form suckers, like an octopus has, on the inside of your palms and if you so choose, at your knees and feet. These suckers allow you to climb almost any surface easier and make it hard to disarm you should you choose to attach a weapon to these suckers. For the duration of this power, you gain a +10 enhancement bonus to Climb checks and opposed checks to be disarmed. Augment: You can augment this power in any of the following ways. For every additional power point spent, the bonus increases by +2. If you spend 2 additional power points, the duration increases to 1 hour/level. If you spend 4 additional power points, you also gain a climb speed equal to your land speed. Conceal Psychometabolism Psychometabolism Level: Egoist 1, Morphean 1, Psychic Warrior 1 Display: None Manifesting Time: 1 standard action Range: Personal Target: You Duration: 1 hour/level Saving Throw: No Power Resistance: No Power Points: 1
For a seer, the mind provides the clues.
7
You alter your biotemplate’s core, which changes how your soul relates to your body, making it impossible for others to discern if you have changed forms or if your claws are a psionic manifestation or very real. When you manifest this power, no power or spell (like True Seeing or
The Mind Unveiled Hypercognition) can determine any changes wrought upon your body via psychometabolism effects. This means that they cannot discern your true race if you’ve changed forms or see your true self if you are disguising yourself with a psychometabolic power. Augment: You can augment this power in any of the following ways. If you expend your psionic focus, you can manifest this power as a move action. If you spend 2 power points, the range changes to Touch and the target to One living creature. If you spend 5 additional power points, the duration increases to 1 day/level. Cryogenic Suspension Psychokinesis [Cold] Level: Kineticist 1 Display: Visual Manifesting Time: 1 standard action Range: Touch Target: One living person Duration: 1 min./level + 1 round Saving Throw: Fortitude negates Power Resistance: No Power Points: 1 You touch the target and send out waves of cryokinetic energy into their body, numbing them and putting them into a cryogenic suspended state where their body shuts down. When you manifest this power, the target becomes disabled for the duration of the power unless they succeed on a Fortitude save to shake off the effects. If they fail their save and are disabled, once the disabling effect is over, they are dazed for one round as their body heats up again. Augment: You can augment this power in any of the following ways. If you spend 2 additional power points, the Range becomes Close instead of Touch. If you spend 2 additional power points, the Duration increases to 10 min./level.
If you expend your psionic focus, you manifest this power as a swift action, but the duration goes down to 1 round/level. For every 2 power points you spend (on this or one of the above augmentations), the DC for this power goes up by 1. Cryokinetic Armor Psychokinesis [Cold] Level: Kineticist 4, Psion/Wilder 5, Psychic Warrior 4 Display: Material Manifesting Time: 1 standard action Range: Personal Duration: 1 round/level Saving Throw: None Power Resistance: No Power Points: Kineticist 7, Psion/ Wilder 9, Psychic Warrior 7 You form an armor of cryokinetic energy around yourself, taking the shape of solidified ice and shimmering plates of hardened air. This armor allows you to withstand blows and deal them alike. When you manifest this power you gain DR5/- and 2 slam attacks (1d6 damage for Medium creatures). Augment: You can augment this power in any of the following ways. For every 2 power points you spend, your slam attacks do 1d6 extra cold damage. For every 3 power points you spend, your damage reduction increases by 1. If you spend 6 power points you can manifest this power as an immediate action instead of a standard action. For every power point you spend on the above augmentations, the duration increases by 1 round. Cryokinetic Barrier Psychokinesis [Cold] Level: Kineticist 3, Psion/Wilder 4 Display: Material Manifesting Time: 1 standard action Range: Medium (100 ft.+ 10 ft./
8
level) Effect: One anchored wall of cryokinetic ice Duration: 1 min./level Saving Throw: Reflex negates; see text Power Resistance: No Power Points: Kineticist 5, Psion/ Wilder 7 You concentrate cryokinetic energy into a flat plane, freezing the humidity and forming a wall of ice and cryokinesic potential which continues to repair itself. When you manifest this power, designate an area of 50 square feet to become the wall in any form or shape as long as it is anchored to at least one other surface. Anyone inside this area where the barrier forms who fails their Reflex save is frozen into it and takes 3d6 cold damage and must succeed on a DC20 Strength check to break out. The formed ice barrier has a hardness of 5 and 30 hit points per 5 foot section and anyone attacking it hits automatically. Reducing a section to 0 hit points breaks it for 1 round, but the barrier continuously repairs 5 points of damage at the beginning of each round as it draws on the humidity in the air around it. Augment: You can augment this power in any of the following ways. For every power point you spend, the area which you designate increases by 10 feet and it gains 5 more hit points per section.

When you go to sleep, you psionically split your subconscious mind from your body sending it into the Dreamscape to search for another person’s subconscious on that plane. If the creature is intelligent and not immune to mind-affecting powers, the subconscious mind tracks him down and returns with the information by the time the manifester wakes up. If the manifester wakes before 8 hours have passed, the power fails as the subconscious mind is violently forced back into the manifester’s consciousness once again. When you manifest this power, you gain a general knowledge of where the target person resides if he is on the same plane. You are granted a general overview of his surroundings and a rough estimate of where he is from your current position such as in a wood 20 miles to the northwest. Note that the power points spent while dreaming do not regenerate during this time and thus the manifester awakens with less than his maximum power points.

When you manifest this power, you gain an extra swift action each round. Each round in which you do not use your swift action, you gain a +2 bonus to Reflex saves instead. Augment: You can augment this power in any of the following ways. If you expend your focus, the range becomes Touch and the target becomes One living creature. For every 2 additional power points you spend, the bonus for not using your extra swift action increases by 1. If you spend 2 additional power points, you gain the benefit of not using your extra swift action to AC and Initiative as well. Neopsyche Telepathy [Mind-affecting] Level: Telepath 6, Psion/Wilder 8 Display: Mental Manifesting Time: 1 round Range: Medium (100 ft.+ 10 ft./ level) Target: One creature with an Intelligence of 3 or higher Duration: One round and Permanent (D) (see text) Saving Throw: Will negates Power Resistance: Yes Power Points: Psion/Wilder 15, Telepath 11 You reach into the psyche of another creature and form a new mind causing the victim to immediately go insane as the two minds struggle over dominance of the conscious part of their shared mind. If the invasive new psyche wins the battle, the old mind
The Mind Unveiled is shunted into the subconscious and takes up residence in the creature’s personal Dreamcircle. When you manifest this power, you designate the major personality traits of the new psyche. The target is dazed (no save) for one round as the new mind surfaces. If the victim fails a Will save, the conscious mind disappears (into the targets Dreamcircle, becoming a Dreamcircle Avatar), replaced by the new psyche. The new psyche is completely separate from its former self and has the personlity traits designated by the manifester. Most manifesters make the new personality subservient to themselves, but others unleash formerly peaceful people into the world as homicidal maniacs. A second manifestation of this power can allow the victim to retake his place as the controlling mind, as can a use of Reality Revision or Psychic Chirurgery. Augment: You can augment this power in any of the following ways. For every power point you spend, if the target fails his Will save, the new mind gets a free use of the Psychic Reformation power. For every 2 power points you spend, the DC for this power is raised by +1. For every 2 power points you spend, the target is dazed for another round.
making him ache from work he has never done. You do this by tearing at his biotemplate at certain junctures where his energy flow lessens and almost stops. When you manifest this power, your target becomes fatigued. A fatigued character can neither run nor charge and takes a -2 penalty to Strength and Dexterity. Doing anything that would normally cause fatigue causes the fatigued character to become exhausted. After 8 hours of complete rest, fatigued characters are no longer fatigued. Multiple manifestations of this power do not make a character exhausted unless using the augmentation. Augment: You can augment this power in any of the following ways. If you spend 3 power points, the target instead becomes exhausted. An exhausted character moves at half speed and takes a -6 penalty to Strength and Dexterity. After 1 hour of complete rest, an exhausted character becomes fatigued. If you spend 2 power points, the range becomes Close and doesn’t require a touch attack. If you spend 4 power points, the duration becomes 1 round/level, allowing you to perform one Tiring Touch per round. For every 2 power points spent to achieve the above, the DC increases by 1.

When you manifest this power, your target must make a Will-save or take a -10 penalty to all skill checks, ability checks and attack rolls until the duration ends or they succeed on a roll. Once they succeed, the power is no longer effective and the target becomes immune to it for 24 hours. Augment: You can augment this power in any of the following ways. For every 3 power points you spend, the target must make an additional successful Will-save or succeed on a roll to overcome this power. If you expend your psionic focus, the manifesting time becomes 1 standard action. For every 2 power points you spend, the DC to resist this power increases by 1. Personal Toolkit Psychometabolism Level: Psion/Wilder 1, Morphean 1 Display: None Manifesting Time: 1 round Range: Personal Target: You Duration: 1 hour/level Saving Throw: No Power Resistance: No Power Points: 1 You transform your hand into a living toolkit which can change form and shape to become any tool you might need. This may manifest as lock picks coming out of your fingers or the hand transforming into a bonehammer. You can always change your hand back to its original shape, but this ends the power. You gain the ability to transform your hand into any kind of tool which you can use with one hand. This tool is treated as if it was masterwork and works for any skill not based on Charisma. Attacking with a tool is an unarmed attack which does 1d3 points of lethal damage.
Psionic Powers Augment: You can augment this power in any of the following ways. For every power point you spend, the circumstance bonus for the tool being Masterwork increases by 1 point. If you spend 2 additional power points, you can transform both hands, allowing you to use any tool which needs two hands. If you spend 2 additional power points, you can transform your hand(s) back and forth between hand and tool without ending the power.

For every 2 power points you spend, you can affect another 10x10 cube of non-living matter touched. If you spend 2 power points the manifesting time becomes 1 move action. If you spend 4 power points, the duration becomes 1 minute / level.

You touch the intended matter, jolting it out of synch with the rest of the universe. This matter becomes indistinct, and you can see through it and could even push yourself through it should you want to. When you manifest this power on non-living matter, anyone can see through it and move through the cube. The matter is still somewhat there and is hard to press through, counting as difficult terrain, and anyone moving through it takes 2d6 non-lethal damage unless protected by a force effect (such as Inertial Armor). If this power is manifested on a sentient but non-living creature (such as a Construct or Undead), they can pass through any solid materials at will, but take 1d6 damage as they do so, but they also gain a 10% miss chance to any attack against them since it can simply phase through them without harming them. These objects otherwise interact normally
You reach out and collapse two points in the universe to become as one, creating a portal which allows instant travel between these two points. You open a portal to anywhere you have either visited or perceived in some way (clairsentience for example), which allows instant travel between these two points, regardless if they are on separate planes or not. A creature must willingly pass through a portal; they cannot be pushed or otherwise coerced into it, simply passing through it to the other side untouched by the powers transportative abilities. Note that this restriction does not pertain to objects or other forms of matter. This portal is circular and can have a radius of up to 10 feet and it is oriented in the direction you desire when it comes into existence. If the portal is manifested so that it intersects an object, this object is immediately cut into two separate
19
pieces. If it intersects a creature, the creature must succeed on a Reflex save or take 20d6 points of slashing damage as their bodies are torn apart from the forming portal. If the creature survives the initial damage, they are still alive; parts of them have been collapsed together with the portal. Augment: You can augment this power in any of the following ways. If you expend your psionic focus when manifesting this power, the portal becomes selective, allowing only those creatures or objects allowed by you to pass through. If you spend 2 additional power points, creatures can be forced through the portal by an outside force (such as telekinetic thrust). If you spend 2 additional power points, the duration increases to 1 min./level. If you spend 4 additional power points, the duration increases to 10 min./level.

When you manifest this power you gain a +4 insight bonus to Initiative. Augment: You can augment this power in any of the following ways. For every 1 additional power points you spend, your insight bonus to Initiative increases by 1.
The Mind Unveiled If you spend 3 additional power points, you are no longer flat-footed when surprised in combat. If you expend your psionic focus, you can manifest this power as an immediate action. Psychoforming Psychometabolism Level: Egoist 3, Morphean 3 Display: Physical Manifesting Time: 1 standard action Range: Personal Target: Personal Duration: 1 hour/level Saving Throw: None Power Resistance: No Power Points: 5 Your flesh, muscles, and bones are no
longer set in a certain biotemplate; rather, you have complete mastery of the disposition of your body. You can become anyone, push through any hole wide enough for your fingers to fit through, and can terrify your enemies with gross displays of physical manipulations. For the duration of this power, you gain a +10 enhancement bonus to Disguise, Intimidate, and Escape Artist checks. While in this malleable form you become impossible to identify unless you want to be and can mimic any humanoid or nonhumanoid creature of your size with a successful Disguise check. Also, being able to compress bone and muscles for this short period allows you to pass through any opening at least two inches high or wide and
frighten anyone able to see or hear the changes. Augment: You can augment this power in any of the following ways. If you spend 4 power points, the duration becomes 1 day/level. For every 2 power points you spend, the enhancement bonus to Disguise, Intimidate and Escape Artist increase by +5. Psychometabolic Parasite Psychometabolism Level: Egoist 4 Display: Visual Manifesting Time: 1 standard action Range: Touch and 1 mile (see below) Target: One living creature Duration: 1 day/level
Portal: To a powerful psion, space is not an obstruction.

Psionic Powers Saving Throw: Fortitude negates Power Resistance: Yes Power Points: Egoist 7 You transform part of your own flesh into a parasite which burrows deep inside another living creatures body, hidden by psychometabolic painkillers. From inside it can relate information about what is happening, tapping into the senses of its target as well as retain simple memories or codes for a limited time. Some egoists use this to keep track of their friends instead of using it as a device to spy on people, thus allowing them to keep a constant watch on the status of their friends. When you manifest this power you must succeed on a touch attack and the target must make a Fortitude save to keep you from injecting the parasite. If the target fails, your parasite enters their body and adjusts itself to their biotemplate, making it hard to find and remove with supernatural means and tricking the body into believing it is an essential part. If the target failed their save, they are unaware that the parasite has entered their body as the psychometabolic constituents of this power removes pain and heals the entry point in a split second. The manifester has a telepathic link with the parasite out to a distance of up to 1 mile. The manifester can see through the target’s senses, but only one at a time. The manifester and the parasite can communicate telepathically as if the parasite was the target of a mindlink power manifested by the egoist. Because of the telepathic link between the parasite and the manifester, he has the same connection to an item or place that the parasite does. For instance, if the parasite has seen a room (by using the targets senses), the manifester could teleport into that room as if he had seen it too. The manifester is at all times aware if the target is suffering from any disease or poison, how many hit points the
target has left and where he is relative to the target and the distance between them. The manifester can make an Autohypnosis check (DC 20) to withdraw any information which the parasite has acquired while inside its host. If he fails, he only knows what he learned while utilizing a sense himself, otherwise the parasite can relay information like who the target met, passwords used and other interesting material. Augment: You can augment this power in the following ways. If you expend your psionic focus and manifest this on a willing living creature, the target can communicate with the parasite and relay information, as well as sharing all senses at the same time instead of just one. This is often called the Symbiote augmentation by egoists. If you spend 2 power points less, you disable the painkiller and instant healing, causing 1d6 points of damage but making the target aware of the parasite and thereby disabling its ability to meld with the biotemplate and make it invisible to detection and removal. If you spend 4 additional power points, you can terminate the parasite at will as a move action, causing it to leak acid inside the targets body before exploding in shattered bones. Once this happens the target first takes 3d6 points of acid damage and then 6d6 points of damage from the shattering explosion inside them. Quintessence Armor Metacreativity Level: Psychic Warrior 6 , Shaper 7 Display: Visual Manifesting Time: 1 standard action Range: Personal Target: You Duration: 1 round/level (D) Saving Throw: No Power Resistance: None Power Points: Psychic Warrior 11, Shaper 13

You cover yourself in an armor formed from quintessence, coalesced time from the time continuum which you use as an armor to ward of effects and attacks against you. When you manifest this power, you always take half damage from any power or spell used against you. You also gain a +5 bonus to any save against a power or spell that you can save against as quintessence disrupts magic and psionics alike. Anyone trying to manifest a power or cast a spell within 15 feet is disrupted as follows: Powers require twice as many power points to manifest, unless the manifester makes a successful DC 16 Will save each time he or she attempts to manifest a power. A spellcaster who tries to cast a spell must succeed on a DC 16 Will save each time they attempt to cast a spell or lose that spell slot. Also, in these circumstances manifesting a psi-like or spell-like ability is a full-round action rather than a standard action. The manifester cannot manifest any new powers while this power is in effect but any previous manifestations are still functioning. Anyone striking the manifester with a natural weapon (such as an unarmed attack or claw attack) takes 2d6 points of damage as quintessence rips away part of their flesh from the current time and preserves it in stasis. Augment: You can augment this power in any of the following ways. If you expend your psionic focus, you can manifest one additional power before the quintessence seals your powers inside. For every 2 power points, the DC to manifest or cast increases by 1. If you spend 2 additional power points, you deal 2d6 points of damage to all weapons (ignore hardness) used to attack you. If you spend 4 additional power points, you can manifest this power as a swift action. If you spend 6 additional power
The Mind Unveiled points, you can manifest this power as an immediate action. If you spend 6 additional power points, the duration increases to 1 min./level. Raging Body, Still Mind Psychometabolism Level: Psion/Wilder 1 Display: Mental Manifesting Time: 1 swift action Range: Personal Target: You Duration: Special (see text) Saving Throw: None Power Resistance: No Power Points: 1 As your body convulses with the power of your physical rage, you block the pheromones in your blood from overwhelming your mind. Your reptile mind takes control of your body while you retain your higher mental functions. This power can only be manifested as a swift action in the same round that the manifester activates their rage (or any other similar effect). This is an exception to the rule which prevents a character from manifesting while in a rage. When you manifest this power, you can still manifest powers while in a rage, although each power costs 2 additional power points. This power lasts as long as your rage does and while it is active, you cannot voluntarily stop attacking an enemy before they are dead as your reptile mind is in control of your physical actions. Surging Augment: If you possess the Wild Surge class ability, you can augment this power in any of the following ways: Wild Surge +2: You can manifest powers while under the effects of a rage without an additional cost. Wild Surge +3: Whenever you manifest a power while under the effects of a rage, that round does not count against the duration of the rage effect.
Wild Surge +4: When you use your Wild Surge class ability while under the effects of a rage, you do not suffer a chance for psychic enervation. This does not affect the manifestation of this power. Rapid Metabolism Psychometabolism Level: Psion/wilder 1, Psychic Warrior 1 Display: Visual Manifesting Time: 1 minute Range: Touch Target: One living creature touched Duration: 1 day Saving Throw: None (harmless) Power Resistance: Yes Power Points: 1 You channel psionic energy into the living creature, allowing it to mend wounds and heal itself even while it isn’t resting. The target creature naturally heals a number of hit points per day equal to double its Constitution bonus (minimum 2) in addition to any normal healing. It gains this additional healing even if it does not rest. Augment: You can augment this power in any of the following ways. If you spend 2 additional power points, the duration is 1 day/level. For every power point you spend, you can have this power affect an additional creature. For every power point you spend, the target heals an additional 2 points of damage when resting.

You surge your body with psionic energy, revitalizing yourself and clearing your body and mind, achieving a clear state of physique. When you manifest this power you are no longer fatigued. Augment: You can augment this power in any of the following ways. If you spend 3 power points, you are no longer exhausted. If you spend 2 power points, the range changes to Touch. Sense Poison & Disease Psychometabolism Level: Psion/Wilder 1 Display: Olfactory Manifesting Time: 1 swift action Range: 100 feet radius centered on you Duration: Concentration (up to 1 min./level) Saving Throw: No Power Resistance: No Power Points: Psion/Wilder 1 You extend your awareness of the biotemplates around you, allowing you to sense when one has been corrupted, either via poison or disease as if it was a smell on the air. When you manifest this power, you automatically sense which people are poisoned or infected within range. By concentrating for 3 rounds on a single subject you can determine if they are poisoned or diseased, what affects them, and how potent it is. This also gives you a +10 circumstance bonus to Heal checks to cure or slow the poison or disease. Augment: You can augment this power in any of the following ways. If you expend your focus, you can garner the individual information in 1 round instead of 3. If you spend 3 power points, the duration becomes 1 hour/level, although garnering individual information still requires concentration.

If you spend 2 power points, the range changes to Close. If you spend 4 power points, the range changes to Medium. If you spend 6 power points, the range changes to Long. For every additional power point you spend, you cause 5 points more of damage. For every 2 power points spent on the above augmentations, the DC increases by 1. Sickening Touch Psychometabolism Level: Egoist 3 Display: Physical Manifesting Time: 1 standard action Range: Touch Target: One living creature Duration: 1 round/level Saving Throw: Fortitude partial (see text) Power Resistance: Yes Power Points: 5 When you touch the target its biotemplate is thrown into disarray causing it to feel sickened and nauseated, often heaving up whatever
they have eaten in response to the psionically triggered sickness. When you manifest this power, the target becomes sickened if he had failed his Fortitude save. The target takes a -2 penalty on all attack rolls, weapon damage rolls, saving throws, skill checks, and ability checks for the duration of the power. If he succeeds, he becomes dazed for 1 round. Augment: You can augment this power in any of the following ways. If you spend 2 power points, the range becomes Close and requires a ranged touch attack. If you spend 4 power points, the target also becomes nauseated. Nauseated creatures are unable to attack, cast spells, concentrate on spells, or do anything else requiring their attention. The only action such a character can take is a single move action per turn. If you spend 3 power points, this power does not offer a Saving Throw.

Stabilize mind cures any emotional damage the target creature has suffered. The subject is cured of any fear, despair or mind-affecting effects which are not charms or compulsions. It removes any lingering mental damage from torture and eases traumatic memories, not removing them but simply severing all emotional strands which cause trauma. It cures confusion and restores 2 points of Wisdom damage.

Augment: You can augment this power in any ofthe following ways. For every power point spent, the target heals 1 more point of Wisdom damage. For 8 power points, the subject is healed of any permanent madness (such as from the Insanity power, a racial trait or associated with a domain). Summon Telepathy Level: Psion/Wilder 3, Telepath 2, Society Mind 3 Display: Mental Manifesting Time: 1 standard action Range: 1 mile/level Target: One person you know Duration: 1 hour/level Saving Throw: None Power Resistance: No Power Points: Psion/Wilder 5, Telepath 3, Society Mind 5 You send out an empathic call to a person you know, tugging at them to find you, regardless of where you are. Being imprisoned behind thick steel walls inside the Black Tower makes no difference for the resonant effects of this power overcomes such small hindrances. When you manifest this power the target simply know you want him to come to you and he knows the general direction he has to go to get to you and a rough estimate at how far he has to go get there. This is not a compulsion; the target is not forced to come. Augment: You can augment this power in any of the following ways. If you expend your psionic focus, the target gets a vision of where you are and in what kind of situation (such as imprisoned in a black tower). If you spend 2 additional power points, you can summon someone you don’t personally know, but know about (like the Guard Captain of the city). If you spend 2 additional power
The Mind Unveiled points, the range increases to 10 miles/level If you spend 3 additional power points, the duration increases to 1 day/level If you spend 4 additional power points, the power gains the [Compulsion] descriptor and the target must make a Will-save or be compelled to find the manifester.

Power Points: 7, XP An advanced technique building on the idea of Guidance, Teach allows a character to not only form a temporary mental bridge and act as a guide for the target - but permanently teach him how to do something or impart knowledge. When you manifest this power, the target gains 1 rank in a skill which you have at least 4 ranks in. XP Cost: 20 xp Augment: You can augment this power in any of the following ways. For every power point you spend, you can Teach the target one more rank in a skill you know, up to 3 ranks less than your ranks. Each rank costs an additional 10 xp. If you expend your psionic focus, the target does not gain a rank in any skill, but can rearrange his current skills.

Telepathic Possession Telepathy [Mind-affecting] Level: Telepath 7 Display: Mental Manifesting Time: 1 standard action Range: Medium (100 ft.+ 10 ft./ level) Target: One living creature Duration: 1 day/level (D) Saving Throw: Will save negates Power Resistance: Yes Power Points: 13, XP You extend your mind, invading another creature’s mind and forcing their consciousness into the subconscious. After this assault you reassert yourself as the controlling psyche of the body, taking possession of the victim. Those who have mastered this power knows how to transform themselves into possessive psychic energy or even how to rearrange the biotemplate of a target, making it possible to possess undead or even worse creatures normally immune to this power. When you manifest this power, you try to assume control over the victim. If he fails a Will-save, he loses control over his body, and you assume full control of the body, but your body collapses and becomes unconscious. Your body is completely vulnerable to attacks in this state, unless using the Parasitic Possession augmentation. If your body dies while possessing another person, you also die and the original psyche returns to power. If the body you are possessing dies, you are shunted back into your own body. While possessing, the following changes apply: You gain the type of your assumed body. You gain the Strength, Dexterity, and Constitution scores of your assumed body (any loss of Constitution affects the possessor’s hit points). You gain the natural armor, natural
Psionic Powers attacks, movement, and other simple physical characteristics of your assumed body. You gain the extraordinary special attacks and qualities of your assumed body, but you do not gain supernatural or spell-like abilities. You gain the possessions and equipment of your assumed body. You retain your own hit points, saving throws (possibly modified by new ability scores), class abilities, supernatural and spell-like abilities, spells and powers, skills, and feats (although skill checks use your new ability scores, and you may be temporarily unable to use feats whose requirements you do not meet in your new body). XP cost: 300 xp. Augment: You can augment this power in any of the following ways. If you expend your psionic focus, you can use this power on a mindless Undead creature even though they are normally immune to mind-affecting effects. If you spend 4 additional power points, your body transforms into pure psychic energy and resides within the mind of the victim for the duration of this power. If the body you are possessing dies, you reform in the square next to it. This augmentation is sometimes called “Parasitic Possession”. If you spend 4 additional power points, this power loses the [mindaffecting] descriptor. If you spend 6 additional power points, the duration becomes permanent (D), but the experience cost increases to 3000 xp. For every 2 power points spent on the above augmentations, the DC increases by 1. Time Reversion Psychoportation Level: Nomad 8 Display: Physical Manifesting Time: 1 hour Range: Personal Target: Personal
Duration: Instant Saving Throw: None Power Resistance: No Power Points: 15, XP You create a temporal disjunction, turning back time around yourself, actually causing you to become physically younger, unmaking any scars and reinvigorating your body. When you manifest this power, your age decreases by 1 year. If you go down an age category, you regain lost physical scores (Strength, Dexterity, Constitution) but keep your current mental scores (Intelligence, Wisdom, Charisma). Should you re-enter that age category later, you regain your physical penalties, but not the mental bonuses. If you have received any permanent scaring or lost a limb during this year, you are restored to your earlier health. Any permanent level or ability drain you have received stays with you though. XP cost: 1000 xp. Augment: You can augment this power in any of the following ways. If you spend 4 power points, the range changes to Touch and the target becomes One creature.

Every horrifying event which has or might have happened assaults their mind, wracking them
25
with painful memories or potential horrors from beyond time and space. All of this happens only within the mind of the affected; to others, the target simply seems to snap and break under mental stress. When you manifest this power, the target becomes shaken for 1 round. Augment: You can augment this power in any of the following ways. If you expend your psionic focus, the range increases to Long (400 ft. + 40 ft./level). For every power point you spend, you can target another creature. For every 2 additional power points you spend, the target becomes shaken for an additional round. If you spend 2 additional power points, you can target any creature with an Intelligence of 1 or more, as well as any non-living creatures that are still susceptible. You still cannot affect creature’s that are immune to Fear or Mind-affecting effects. If you spend 5 additional power points, this becomes an Area-effect (20 feet radius) centered on you, affecting all targets within range.

Duration: instantaneous Saving Throw: Reflex partial (see text) Power Resistance: Yes Power Points: Nomad 13 For a few seconds you force open a gateway to another Plane of Existance, causing its most common energy to flow through the portal and pour over those who stand before it. When you manifest this power, choose one of the following planes: Ethereal Plane: Fear and loathing rushes out from the portal, channeled
The Mind Unveiled from the restless dead lingering there, triggering every mental flight response in those affected. Everyone touched by the line of energy becomes panicked for 3d6 rounds; if they succeed on their save they instead become frightened for 2d6 rounds. This is a mind-affecting fear effect.

Everyone touched by the line of energy becomes blinded for 3d6 rounds; if they succeed on their save they instead become dazzled for 3d6 rounds.

Everyone touched by the line of energy becomes confused for 1d4 rounds; if they succeed on their save they instead become dazed for 1 round. Dreamscape: Ectoplasmic potential streams out of the portal; myriads of nightmares and dreams descend upon those affected. Everyone touched by the line of energy becomes stunned for 1d6 rounds; if they succeed on their save they instead become flatfooted for 1 round.

Everyone touched by the line of energy becomes petrified for 2d6 rounds; if they succeed on their save they instead become dazed for 1 round. Plane of Fire: A flash of superheat explodes forth from the portal, shocking all touched by its effect by pain. Everyone touched by the line of energy takes 10 points of fire damage and becomes nauseated for 1d6 rounds, if they succeed on their save they take no damage and instead
become staggered. Plane of Water: A stream of water cascades out from the portal, knocking people from their feet. Everyone touched by the line of energy takes 20 points of bludgeoning damage and becomes knocked down; if they succeed on their save they still take the damage but instead become checked. Plane of Positive Energy: A stream of supercharged light erupts from the portal, showering all in Positive Energy. Everyone touched by the line of energy heals 10d6 points of damage but becomes exhausted; if they succeed on their save they do not heal and instead become fatigued. Plane of Negative Energy: A billowing grey cloud exits the portal and all who are touched by it feel their strength drain away. Everyone touched by the line of energy takes 3d6 points of Strength damage; if they succeed on their save they instead become shaken. Augment: You can augment this power in any of the following ways. If you spend 4 additional power points, you can manifest this power as a move action. For every power point you spend, the line becomes 10 feet longer. For every 3 power points you spend, the line becomes 5 feet wider. For every 2 power points you spend (on other augmentations above or here), the DC to save against its effect increases by 1.

You reach out into the uncountable patterns of possible futures and unknown possibilities, and you channel them entirely into the mind of another creature, overwhelming him with millions upon millions of potential possibilities playing out in nerve-wracking visions. When you manifest this power, the target becomes disabled for the duration of the power unless he succeeds on a Will-save. If he makes his Will-save, he is still dazed for 1 round from the overwhelming visions swimming before his eyes. Visual Illusion Metacreativity Level: Shaper 1 Display: Visual Manifesting Time: 1 standard action Range: Long (400 ft. +40 ft./level) Effect: 10 cubic ft./level Duration: Concentration Saving Throw: Will disbelieves Power Resistance: No Power Points: 1 You summon a thick ectoplasmic creation which emits light as you specify, essentially creating a membrane which emits a holographic form unerringly like an illusion. When you manifest this power, it creates the visual illusion of an object, creature, or force as visualized by you. The illusion does not create sound, smell, texture, or temperature. You can move the image within the limits of the size of the effect. Augment: You can augment this power in any of the following ways. If you spend 2 power points, the duration becomes 10 min./level, but you must create a stationary illusion which doesn’t move or change. If you spend 4 power points, the duration becomes 10 min./level, and you can program the illusion to move according to a pattern. If you spend 6 power points, the duration becomes permanent, but you must create a stationary illusion
Psionic Powers which doesn’t move or change. For every 2 power points spent for the above, the DC for this power goes up by 1. Will of Iron Psychometabolism Level: Egoist 2, Psion/Wilder 3, Psychic Warrior 2 Display: Auditory Manifesting Time: 1 standard action Range: Personal Target: Personal Duration: 1 min./level Saving Throw: None Power Resistance: No Power Points: Egoist 3, Psion/ Wilder 5, Psychic Warrior 3 Your will overcomes the limitations of physical matter, flesh, and bone. Pain becomes nothing more than a sense under your control, allowing you to ignore the distractions it provides and continue fighting, even when your body is giving up. When you manifest this power you don’t die until you are reduced to -20 hit points or below and when reduced to between -1 and -19 hit points, you automatically become stable. You don’t have to roll d% to see if you lose 1 hit point each round, and you can continue to act as normal even though you are between -1 and -19 hit points. You don’t have to make a Concentration check to continue manifesting after being damaged. Augment: You can augment this power in any of the following ways. If you spend 2 power points, the range changes to Touch. If you spend 6 power points, the manifesting time becomes 1 immediate action. If you expend your psionic focus, you also gain a +2 enhancement bonus to your Will save.
