[QUOTE="Remathilis, post: 7673675, member: 7635"] Basic psionics should, but cystals-and-chakra stuff might be a good way to handle "psionic consumables" or rituals or the like. A crystal could store power points, a chakra allow ritual-like powers for lower PP cost. Something like that. But a psionic in a dungeon, bound, gagged, and stripped, can still be dangerous, I agree.
