[QUOTE="Cadence, post: 8094651, member: 6701124"] Thank you! :-) Do you have a favorite example of the archetype in literature that you're aiming at? I assume the 5e Warlock is still too slotted? In fiction there's often the thing where the really powerful wizard can be taken down by the assassin/archer/whatnot if they don't have their defensive spell up or let it lapse. But if they know it's coming, they're fine because they can bring up some defensive shields or protections or the like. It feels like there have been some psionic things in some edition where there was really nothing the mage could do to be ready. I might be misremembering. For what you personally are looking for, do you need most magical spells to not work against psionics or is it fine if a caster wants to spend a slot on it (like they would for physical attack protection). In a world that had both magic and psionics, would the casters and practitioners have figured out how to defend against each other and have defenses in their arsenal? [/QUOTE]
