The Dragonstar RPG for 3e had an Ilithid offshoot as a playable race. They were called the Ith-kon and they bred to be Psychic Warriors. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dragonstar_(role-playing_game)#Setting

Tone down as in the number of spells? 3rd edition certainly had too many of them, both officially and via 3pp (along with feats, but that's another story for another thread). One problem with too many spells in any edition is that you are bound to run into a spell that's essentially a rehash of...

It really depends on the concept for a given class in D&D. A number of posters on this thread brought up Professor X or Jean Grey as examples of what a Psion, in their minds, is capable of doing. So, from this point onward, that is how everyone is going to see the concept behind the Psion class...

So is the Dragonfire Adept class from 3e. https://dndtools.net/classes/dragonfire-adept/ The only class in D&D where breathing is an essential part of the class. :p

There is the Kineticist class from 1st and 2nd edition Pathfinder, and the Elementalist class for Level Up from Purple Martin Games.

If you are performing rapid hand seals in order to cast a Jutsu as a bonus action, I would have to say yes. We do a need a DEX caster. ;) Like the ones in the Naruto anime.

What would make them look cool?

@Xeviat, do you see your Elementalist class as a psionic class? curious

Neither. They are a feature that all martial classes in A5e get as a class feature. The martial classes (Adept, Berserker, Fighter, Herald, Marshall, Ranger and Rogue) gain proficiency on at least two combat traditions. Fighters in A5e gain a third combat tradition proficiency depending on their...

Only to make a slight offset in the number of mammalian species that currently exist in 5e. ;) 5e has three playable avian species- Aarakocra, Kenku and Owlin. One playable fish species- Locathah. Two playable reptilian species- Lizardfolk, Tortles. One playable species of Amphibian- the Grung...

The Elemental Scion heritage in the sneak peak PDF looked nice. :)

Maybe they'll be redesigned to resemble small anthropomorphic ants this time? ;) They'll have an easier time being invited to picnics then.

The Elemental Clerics of Athas are more like Warlocks than Clerics IMO. In order to become an Elemental Cleric, they must somehow gain the attention of the elementals by throwing themselves off a cliff (air), burying themselves alive (earth), setting themselves on fire (fire) or drowning...

If this condition affected Bugbears, my next character will be a Blue Bugbear named Hank McCoy. :p

It could be that for some, the 4e Warlord simply raised the bar so high that they won't be satisfied with another version, be it the Marshall class from A5e or even a potential Warlord 2.0 for WoTC's 5e. It's hard to say if it's a conscious or subconscious decision on their part. It's also hard...

And "Anything, but that!"

If the launch of @Steampunkette 's Martial Artistry meets one of its' stretch goals, we might get a Swordmage class for everyone to try out. :)

4e had it where the Genasi were just a single race that was capable of manifesting each of the five elements (air, earth, fire, lightning and water) thanks to their time living in the Elemental Chaos. They were born manifesting one element at first but could learn how to manifest another element...

Are there any giants in 5e who are psionic? It would be neat if they were, as then we could have psionic Goliaths. ;)

Definitely worth backing whenever they come out with a new book.
