[QUOTE="MerricB, post: 6011546, member: 3586"] It should be noted that psionic characters are, by a fair margin, the most complicated characters in 4E. Under no circumstances should they be given to a new player to play if the DM can't spend time helping them. Here's an example of a character sheet I gave to my D&D Encounter players: [b]Half-Orc Rogue 1 (Deep Delver, Deep Wastes)[/b] Str 11 +0 Dex 20 +5 Wis 10 +0 Perception +5, low-light vision Con 16 +3 Int 10 +0 Cha 8 -1 Passive Perception 15, Passive Insight 10 Initiative +5 Speed 6 (8 when charging) [B]AC 17[/B], Fort 13, Ref 17, Will 10 [B]HP:[/B] 28 bloodied 14, surge value 7, surges/day 9 Half-orc resilience: the first time you are bloodied in an encounter, gain 5 temporary hit points.
