Message: <blockquote data-quote="Dark Psion" data-source="post: 3010129" data-attributes="member: 959">And it is there because with each edition of the game "someone" has tried to remove Psionics from the game.When second edition came out, there were no psionics anywhere till the Complete Book of Psionics was released. The Forgotten Realms Adventures book even said that Psionics no longer existed in the realms. Of course that very same month there was an article in Dragon on Skullport that included the brand new 2e Psionicist.They did not reprint all psionics rules when they included the Gem Dragons in Monster Manual II and take a look at the list of dragons in <a href="http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/iw/20060804a" target="_blank">Dragons of Faerun </a> (Scroll down). There are psionic dragons right there, a Crystal Dragon on page 33 and a Topaz Dracolich on page 51. I don't see where including them added any problems, but having them will make the book more complete. Someone who doesn't play in FR might pick up this book just to see what a Gem Dragon looks like, and it doesn't limit itself to just the MM dragons, there are other types too. If MMIV had psionic Githyanki, I would have bought it for that alone, despite its other problems. My first question on the Tome of Battle, "Anything for the Psychic Warrior?" He didn't get much from the Complete Psionic.A lot of people have defended the "monsters with class levels" in MMIV because it saves time for the DM, but what about my time? If I have to add psionics to everything, that requires time that could be spent playing. Especially since the XPH did not include that NPC chart that was in the original 3e Psi Hbdk. One of the reasons I like Eberron is that I feel a little more welcomed there. I don't have to create everything myself. There comes a time where the fun gives way to fustration when you have to do everything.</blockquote>
