I am working on a template for psionic discipline power cards much like my template for the spell cards or the old 4 edition power cards. I am using the Unearthed Arcana material on psionics and the Mystic as reference material to support. Attached is a sneak peak on the work I have completed so far. I'm not sure who is using psionics or if they would find such cards useful, but I'd like their input on design, information, format, etc.
I've built in 14 different backgrounds, but these can easily be replaced by your own choice by swapping the images in the style file.
The information on cards include The Discipline name, discipline rank (greater or lesser), and the mystic order (Immortal or awakened). I have approached the cards two ways. I have provided a place for each effect name, as well as the psi point cost and a concentration indicator for the effect. This is seen in the Adaptive Body discipline below where the psychic focus, and the two effects and their associated point costs are on separate cards -- this allows for easier card management in the magic set editor program and reduces clutter on a card. The mystics can not use all the effects of a discipline until higher levels, so this will allow you to print out only what is needed.
The other approach, still supported by the template, is to place all the effects on a single card for the discipline, as seen in the Body of Wind example.
Feedback is appreciated before I finalize the design and post to the downloads section.
