[QUOTE="Scion, post: 1126837, member: 5777"] METAPSYCHIC Hit Die: d6 Requirements To qualify to become a metapsychic, a character must fulfill all the following criteria. Manifesting: Ability to manifest six different powers from one discipline. Psicraft: 6 ranks. Knowledge (psionics): 6 ranks. Concentration: 6 ranks. Feats: Inner Strength, Talented, Trigger Power (twice). Class Skills The metapsychic’s class skills are Alchemy (Int), Concentration (Con), Craft (any) (Int), Knowledge (psionics), Psicraft (Int), and Remote View (Int) plus any others from their previous main discipline path. Skill Points at Each Level: 4 + Int modifier. Class Features All of the following are class features of the metapsychic prestige class. Weapon and Armor Proficiency: Metapsychics gain no proficiency in any weapon or armor. Power Points and Powers Discovered: Metapsyhics gain new power points and discover new powers as if they had gained a level in psion or psychic warrior (whichever they had levels in, if both players choice). Psionic attack and defense modes are discovered as though the character were a psychic warrior of the same level as the prestige class (characters do not forget previously discovered attack and defense modes). Metapsychics gain bonus power points based on the key ability score for their primary ability. If the character previously could not gain bonus power points for high ability scores (as is the case for psychic warriors), he now chooses a primary discipline and can gain bonus power points based on the related ability score (see Table: Psion Bonus Power Points). As they are very specialized they also gain extra powers based on the table below.

From then on no powers from other disciplines can be chosen but those already known are not lost. Trigger Power: Each time this feat is gained, he or she chooses a power of level 0 to 3 that he or she can attempt to manifest for free. Only powers from the characters specialty may be chosen. Power: Each level beyond the first that a 'd' appears on the psions list for a power level an extra 'd' is added to that list up to a maximum of 4 d's (if a psychic warrior they gain a 'd' when gaining a level after they first get the level for a new power, max of 3 d's). Apotheosis 0,1,2,3,4: The metapsychic gains the spell-like ability to manifest his or her powers as though using the Trigger Power feat instead of selecting specific powers.
