[QUOTE="Piratecat, post: 1499777, member: 2"] I would feel annoyed, and as DM I wouldn't allow it. I personally see psionics as fitting in perfectly within a fantasy milieu, but your point is a good one. That being said, I would make the world match my own vision for it. If I decided I wanted psionics in my world and my players didn't, I'd probably include them anyways but disguise them somewhat, making sure that the players never had to learn new rules mechanics. They don't care what rules I use for my bad guys and NPCs as long as I'm fair and consistent. Adding non-rules-based societal roles (gunbunnies) that my group hated would take a gentler touch, and I'd give it long and hard thought before adding such a thing. Sorry for rambling. I think my point is that if I decided to add psionics, it wouldn't work in my group to have them vote on it. While I'd certainly take their wishes into consideration, I'm not prepared to give up control of my "world vision" to my players. I'd either allow them or not, and tell the hopeful player accordingly. [/QUOTE]
