3PP Release (3rd Party Book Release) Paranormal Power: A Psionics Option for 5e and A5e, written by Steampunkette!

The artwork is awesome! Do we get a chance to buy them, or will they be added to the book in the future (PDF or PoD?)

My license for their use is exclusive to two options:

1) Advertising for Paranormal Power
2) Use in Paranormal Power

I'll be re-releasing the book with all of the art replaced at a future date. PDFs, too.

This reminds me: I have often wondered how RPG products sell after a kickstarter. When you get a chance, maybe 6 months to a year down the road, could you give us an update on how sales have gone post KS?

Did you ever read Psi-Force
I think my next campaign will be a homebrew world with Paranormal Powers as the focus
A party of ESPers with maybe some other classes as support classes (maybe NPCs)
Low magic world where psionics are unknown
The secret society in charge knows that now regular people are emerging with powers
The characters are being hunted while they learn their new powers and help others out where they can
I'm also debating just setting it in Dark Sun too and just homebrewing the adventure

That is -awesome- to hear! And no, I wasn't a Psi-Force fan back when I was younger. Might have to start reading it, though, since it was a separate Marvel universe.

That said: Dark Sun could be a place to set it, sure. But the preponderance of psionics in the setting (particularly the monsters) might be a bit much. If I might make a tiny suggestion?

Victorian England could be a ton of fun. Have the secret society be a bunch of English Nobles who learned what little magic there is battling against similar secret societies in other European and Asiatic countries... That puts the Psionic Awakening both as a power struggle against power sources (Psi/Magic) but also frames it as one of economics (Poor people with power? Don't be absurd!) and social clout/power.

Could even do the "Fantasy England" where there are goblin chimneysweeps and the like!

I like your input. That kind of setting could keep the focus on the powers where I'd like it. Setting it in an actual historical setting would be fun for research for the game too. Thanks again for the wonderful product. I'm still reading it and I'm going to figure it out with the a5e. I may pick that up soon

I'm also toying with the idea for a quick (run in 2-3 hours) adventure for Dark Sun which could also be a starting point for something like an A5E Dark Sun Starter Kit. If you are interested in helping to compile stuff I can open a new thread for that
