[QUOTE="LuisCarlos17f, post: 9584332, member: 6802378"] My opinion is Birthright could be a better option for a romantasy novel. The key is not if we need a new class but if there is a enough number of roleplayers willing to spend their money for a class with a different game mechanic. I like the psions because they are different from the standards critearia. They are like the smartest boy in the classroom, and he isn't understood and value by the rest of classmates. The idea of a halfling using telekinesis to impulse a jump and kick an ogre in the jaw is strange even for the D&D standars. The psions feel like foreigns in their own land. Even when wizards, sorcerers and warlocks were hard to be found at least they are known, but nobody knows about the psions. There is a second way of poll and when a homemade idea is published in D&D beyond this can enjoy positive votes. * The erudite (variant from the complete psionic) could be a playtesting demo class. You use the wizard and replace spell slots with a pool of power points. * An esper (seer/clairesentience) could be an interesting nPC class. While she uses her powers to investigate and look for clues the PCs should procted her as bodyguards. * I imagine the ardent is not like the "mystic" becuse she can wear armour but more limited to use psionic powers for especial movement (jump, teletransportation..). Ardents have got "mantles" and psions "psycristals". * Could "talents" (level 0 powers, like psionic catrips) be used to "create tools"? For example to unlock jails when they are prisons in a dungeon * Could a "talent" (level 0 psionic power) to create enough ectoplasm to block a gunpowder canon or to water gundpowder? * Does anybody remember the manga from 80s "Mai the psychic girl"?
