Yep, sure do. Psionics are a central part of my campaign. Currently I'm using the rules for psionics and magic being similar, but next time I want to try them being different.

Oh yeah, forgot to mention, I don't use the ITCK stuff, but I do use the mind's eye stuff from wotc.

I use the rules to cover a different kind of magic known IMC as "magery".

The term "psionics" doesn't exist IMC and I ditched the "psionic combat rules" (too sci-fi for me! - plus they are merely a liability for psions).

So as rules for an additional kind of magic I like them.

In the future I'd quite like to merge together feat+skill magic (from Star Wars "the force"), points based magic (psionics), Wheel-of-Time style channelling magic... Make every magic using class distinctly different in operation as well as concept.

Cheers
 


The game I'm currently intending to run will be a Psionics only campaign...at most, I may allow divine magic. I just like Psi better.
 

I use them occasionally. Basically they are too weak compared to wizards to really make them my favorite choice.
Some of my players have used them several times as well. ;)

Damn it was a long time ago I saw one of my creations, where did you find that Deamonforge logo :) , I really like how it turned out and I like it even more now when I can see it again (lost the original Photoshop file for it :( )
 

Psionics are a staple in my game, and stand up just fine next to arcane and divine magic as a third branch of magic. I have two major empires that use psionics in important ways -- one uses psionics for trackers, enforcers, and surrogate mages after a major part of the empires mages rebelled and left. The other trains the nobility in psionics as a method of maintaining control.
 

Psionic gnomes.

Stealthy, knowledgable, lorekeeping psionic gnomes.

I figure it gives them a favored class with some oomph and keeps the crystal/gem flavor of it quite nicely. Most of the lil; buggers are Clairsentience focused.

That's right.

Psionic Gnomes.
