I have just uploaded 5E Psionicist (experiment) to the downloads area.
This class is my interpretation of a solid psionic class for 5E. It is meant to be a "quick and dirty" conversion until such time as the official psionics subsystem is released by WotC. This is my experiment in re-skinning and utilizing the existing 5E D&D rules mechanics from the PHB to make a different class concept. This allows for quick access to a psionic archetype without having to create an entirely new system that will be a wasted effort once WotC releases their version. It should also make it much simpler to add to the standard character selection options since there is really not very much that is "new" other than the power points and overpower. In effect, the class is another "caster" class since the spell system was already thee for the using. In some ways the power point (aka spell point) variant makes them a little more versatile in the level of 'spells' they can cast, but are thematically more limited than wizards.
