[QUOTE="Scion, post: 1165678, member: 5777"] This is mainly in direct response to ecto puppet being a worthless power. This is a higher level, still requires several different powers known to even opperate, and has a pretty fun flavor to it ;) Any ways to make the description more concise? If you think it is overpowered please give a reason and i will respond with my reasoning or change the power accordingly. Thanks! Ecto Construct (I need a better name for it :( ) Metacreativity (Int) Level: Psion 3 Display: Au, Vi (see text) Manifestation Time: 1 full round Range: Personal Effect: An astral construct of the highest level you can manifest Duration: 1 round/level (D) Saving Throw: None Power Resistance: No Power Points: Special This power manifests an astral construct that forms around you as it is created. The construct must be your size category or greater. You directly control its actions and all of its senses become yours. While this power is in effect your body 'floats' inside of the astral construct but you recieve no sensory input from it. You are able to use any applicable feats that you have, all spells that would also effect the construct are transfered from you to it for the duration of the power, and any powers or feats the astral contruct gains you are also able to use. It gains half of your base str and dex (round down) as inherant bonuses to each of its str and dex respectively. You are still effected normally by most, if not all, will save powers as your consciousness is in the construct. Your new physical form is that of a construct so you are immune to fortitude based spells that cannot effect objects or constructs. If the spell is ended prematurely (construct is destroyed, dispelled, or other) then the psion is shaken and fatigued for the remaining duration. Equipment carried and worn by manifestor usually has no effect on the construct. The power costs an amount of points equal to the highest astral construct you can manifest +2. [/QUOTE]
