Do you give out psionic treasure?

I play a psion shaper in an Eberron campaign and so far I've really gotten the short end of the stick. We're already 6th level and we haven't found a single psionic item :( To compensate the DM does allow me to buy psionic items in the city, but they're usually too expensive for me. I also took the imprint stone and scribe tattoo feats and I use them a lot. But nothing beats killing a <fill the blank> and looting his mumbo jumbo of psionic excellence (or some other artifact) ;)
 

No, but it's campaign specific. Psionicists have been targeted by a 5,000 year long pogrom. There are psionicists and they do craft items (they've got stockpiles of the things built up for When The Revolution Comes) but they don't sell them and they track down anything that's lost or been stolen. And it's very hard to keep something that a group of clairvoyants, telepaths, and teleporters want back.
 


I play a Phy warrior who relys on my claws. The only treasure I really want is a good cloak of resistance and boots of flying (we have no wizard and every time we run into a ravine or broken bridge it takes us forever to cross. I just got the cloak. I would not mind a str modifier, but it is not neccessary, my powers are more than enough.
 

I always liked the Torc of Psionic Might. At least, in 3.0. Did they change it? Great item for a Psion.
 

Not nearly so often as I give out magical treasure, but I do occasionally give out psionic treasure, especially if the party fights a psion. I just thought of something strange. Normally no one in the party is psionic, but I'll use psionic enemies and items. Right now there are two characters with some psionic ability (a githzerai with natural psionic abilities and a thri-kreen taking some psychic warrior), yet I haven't used psionic enemies or items. Perhaps I should use some...
 

I use psionics IMC but I struggle to remember to include an appropriate amount of psionic treasure with the exception of psionic tattoos. All the players love these for some strange reason; ditto for the psionic skins.
 


I'm stingy as Hell with any sort of FX loot, but I do tend to give out magic items a lot more than psionic ones. I make a point of throwing in psionic items with psionic enemies, though-- seems more fitting that way.

A lot of it is, I hate a lot of the crystal fetish crap that goes along with psionic items, and I don't like FX tattoos, whether magical or psionic in nature. I really don't like dorjes. On the other hand, I do try to throw in creepy biological psi-items, as well as more standard items imprinted with psionic circuitry and made out of strange materials.
