[QUOTE="ccs, post: 7861404, member: 6803664"] 20* - not counting NPCs/monsters & theorycraft. 1e = 5* Only one of these I can say for a fact was actually rolled up. Of the other 4, two I suspect were rolled since if you were going to cheat you probably wouldn't pick crap. * I said 5 because that's the ones I [I]remember[/I]. There might very been a few more back about '82/'83 that've passed from memory. 2e = 10 5 were pre-gen characters in a Darksun game I played in at a local con. The other 5 were in the only Darksun campaign I ever played in. It later about 6 sessions & ended in a TPK. Psionic characters were never used again by the group for the rest of 2e. 3x = 3 ●Dumb Ass at the local shop. Built badly, played worse, lasted 2 sessions before getting killed & re-rolled an elf ranger.... ●My friend Joel made some sort of psionic thrall master & tried to control just about everything we met. Note the word tried.... ●My own foray into 3x psionics as a player. Meh. 4e = 1 A psionic tree thing. .... It was allowed & survived as long as it did because I was not the DM. Pathfinder 1 = 1 Using a 3pp book I built the Watcher from marvel comics. A) to test out the system B) to troll one of the other players. After a few lvs the evaluation was deemed complete & the gag had run its course. My conclusion: almost 40 years & 5 editions & I haven't yet found psionic rules I like & don't think they add anything (good) to the game. The UA article will not see play when I DM. [/QUOTE]
