[QUOTE="Khaalis, post: 6371726, member: 2167"] What I am currently thinking about for a homebrew Psionics system while we await an official one, is a system that blends certain aspects of the Warlock and the Sorcerer. They are good systems and would utilize existing (and accepted) mechanics. I haven't settled specifically on how to distribute the abilities quite yet but I think this is the best place to start. As to the Class/Subclass structure, I'm looking at a single new base class - Psion (or Psionicist or Psychic) that would fit the roll of the "mind mage" for lack of better way to classify it. This class would have then multiple subclasses that focus on what I see as the classic psychic categories - Telepath and Kineticist and perhaps a Seer and/or Shaper style subclasses. Categories like Metabolics and Portation would fall into the realm of new subclasses for base classes like the fighter, monk, rogue, etc. Perhaps the new mix of mechanics Might even warrant a second new base class of Psychic Warrior that is broken out into the concepts of Psi-Knight, Soulblade, Battlemind, Lurk, Soulbow, etc. (though I think many of these are just better as as Multiclass Subclasses like Eldtritch Knight).
