[QUOTE="irdeggman, post: 2817646, member: 16285"] Interesting hypothesis, but parts are missing. The Stoneblessed PrCl also grants certain "racial" benefits "in addition" to the one you mentioned. One is the skills stuff and the other is the ability things , like stonecunning for dwarves. If there was one of these for Kalashtar it would therefor logically include the abilites that make them a psionic race - or at least logic would dictate that it should. Kalashtar are also "unique" in that they are a dual spirit race. Formed by the merging of a Quari spirit and a human "host". The "race" are the decendents of the original hosts and have developed as such. It is that dual spirit issue that complicates things a lot for this hypothesis, IMO. It is possible to "create" new dual sprited creatures - that is what the "Inspired" are about. IIRC Complete Psionic started using the term psionic subtype for psionic races (and thus those with Wild Talent feat). This might actually be the way this issue is evolving. In order to manifest a mindblade a character has to have the psionic subtype. Now there are creatures with the no pp who would be psionic subtype due to psi like abilities, but this might be the way the issue eventually gets resolved. That is if WotC ever spends any real quality time on the class itself. [/QUOTE]
