And for that matter the Psi Warrior and Soulknife.Beginning at 6th level, when you cast any spell of 1st level or higher from your Psionic Spells feature, you can cast it by expending a spell slot as normal or by spending a number of sorcery points equal to the spell's level. If you cast the spell using sorcery points, it requires no verbal or somatic components, and it requires no material components, unless they are consumed by the spell. And I'm all in favour of aberrant minds dumping Arms of Hadar, Hunger of Hadar, Black Tentacles, and Summon Aberration for more psionic abilities, which they can explicitly do. I also want an alternative to Revelation In Flesh even if few games reach that far. (Cause Fear should be on the Aberrant Mind list, but that's a minor issue).As a DM you're going to have to make a hell of a pitch for this before I'll allow it in my campaigns, especially if it comes from a third party. And I think I'm far from the only one that thinks that way. As a DM I prefer more streamlined rules - especially when the existing rules already cover things.D&D class based game and you're right that psionics is not wizarding magic - but you're going in with a TSR-era approach to D&D magic; sorcerers and bards have been in D&D's core rules for more than the past twenty years.Carry White might not have studied occultism - but although some D&D Sorcerers have a key difference is that they aren't required to (there is nothing preventing them doing so to find out what these abilities they've manifested are). In D&D terms Dr. Strange is a wizard, Charles Xavier is an Aberrant Mind Sorcerer who casts literally everything through the Psionic Sorcery points pool. Scarlet Witch might very well be a warlock in D&D terms or a wizard. Jean's another Aberrant Mind sorcerer (although neither Xavier nor Jean use Revelation in Flesh). One Punch is a Monk - and guess what? There's a psionic monk subclass - so not Hermione Granger.</blockquote>
