A good mechanic for Arcane Defiling and the Dark Sun monsters.

You could remove it fine and play a John Carter of Mars or apocalyptic stetting. It would work fine. There would be some modifications to be made, but its doable.How so? Does removing the psionics change anything else about the setting? It feels pasted on to me, but I could be wrong.

But SHOULD you. I think not, its not as pasted on as you fear. It works within the setting and it fits. It permeates the society and there are reasons for it to be that way.
I will, however, I don't like psionics. So if I were to use the DS setting it would be without psionics. My question is if it is worth the effort to buy DS if I don't want to use psionics?I highly recommend reading the setting guide before deciding.
I think you could run DS without Psionics with only minimal fiddling. The biggest issue, IMO, would be converting monsters and NPCs that have psionics and recalculating CR, if that's your thing. I don't think the setting somehow doesn't work without psionics though.That is my fear - I am hoping it is pasted on and easily removed.

If it just lore, that is not an issue for me.
I know JCoM, but what does Planetary Romance have to do with psionics?

I didn't realize that, never read the books. Just familiar with them.Everyone on Barsoom had telepathic powers, including John Carter.
I think I can handle that - thank you for the input!The biggest issue, IMO, would be converting monsters and NPCs that have psionics and recalculating CR, if that's your thing. .
