OK, a bit more about the character - be forewarned it's a little odd. This is an experimental character made with some new rules variants to see how they work with our homebrews before deciding whether or not to incorporate them into our standard setting.
First off, it is a gestalt character - a Psimonk (Psion/Monk)
It's an Eberron character race - a changeling
It is a Psychokineticist, and may eventually try moving towards taking the Shifter PrC... depending on whether or not he works well enough to last that long.
I would classify his function as a scout - moves ahead using swift spead and uses abilities to poke around enemy camps before returning to relate information to his comrades and aid in planning strategies. His powers are mostly means of distraction (Control Object), obtaining small hard to reach items (Far Hand), and long range damage to complement his close range monk combat skills (Energy Ray). Where is powers go from there will be determined by what is necessary.
Savras or the Red Knight might work well. He sees his powers as tools, and thinks the same way of others abilities (magic, swords, lockpicks). Some of the design influences to his character are later season versions of Tuvok or Odo, for those familiar with those characters, after experiences have somewhat mellowed their harder edges, and yet remaining firmly entrenched in reasoning, planning, and so forth. He sees himself as both upholding the law on the one hand, and ensuring the good of the people on the other hand, not going to the extent of Inspector Javert in upholding the law, because he ceases to keep in mind the good of the people, and not going the way of Robin Hood because of his lack of respect for the law. I don't know if that helps, and it got more into alignment type issues than I was thinking it would. But it should allow for more accurate consideration of what deity or deities he might revere.
