One of the key defiler abilities could be available to a preserver on the understanding that once they have used it 3 times they switch. Flaws could replicate the defiler penalties as well, much more satisfying than charisma modifiers.Secondly, the way NPCs work means it’s easy to create a dragon by taking the wizard/sorcerer base and slapping psionics on. No complication there and none of the twisting we had to do in 3e  to make it so.Lastly the way slots are shared between disciplines means of psionics operate on the same level basis as other magic as in 3e then PC wanting to follower the psionic caster route could still do that. Perhaps a feat that lets you take a spell or two of you highest caster level from either class.</blockquote>
