This here is a place for all you psion players and such out there to help in creating a grouping of new psionic powers and such for psions. There are many places on the net for new spells but little for psionics...so now there is a place. I will be posting some new powers here soon along with some spells that I have changed into powers (such as Hypnotism and Gaseous form). I welcome powers of all levels, including epic powers. I am also leaving the thread open for others to comment on the new powers posted so that we dont get god-like powers and such. Ok, have at it and soon enough I shall have some for you.

NOW LIVE! Into the Woods--new character species, eerie monsters, and haunting villains to populate the woodlands of your D&D games.

Gaseous form
Psychometabolism
Level: Psion 3
Display: Vi, Ma
Manifestation time: 1 action
Range: Personal
Target: You
Duration: 2 minutes/level
Saving throw: None
Power resistance: No
Power points: 5
You know what this power does...no point writing it all out. Simple. This spell could have easily been used for Psions...and now you can. Changes? Mostly just in the range and target as most beneficial powers are used only by the Psion alone, mostly true for psychometabolism.
Hypnotism
Telepathy
Level: Psion 1
Display: Au, Me
Manifestation time: 1 action
Range: Close (25ft. + 5ft./2 levels)
Area: Several living creatures totaling up to 2d4 HD, no two of which may be more than 30ft. apart
Duration: 2d4 rounds
Saving throw: Will negates
Power resistance: Yes
Power points: 1
Blah, blah, blah...you know it or should. Anyways, another spell turned into a useful psionic power.
Well, two for the moment...feel free to post some new ones and spell conversions too.

Postcognition
Clairsentience
Level: Psion 6
Display: Vi, Au
Manifestation time: 10 minutes
Range: Personal
Target: You
Duration: 1 minute/level
Power points: 5
Similiar to Precognition save for the fact that it allows you to gain useful visions of the past concerning some specific goal, event, or activity that had occured within one years time. It can be a simple glimpse or a long cryptic dream...basically up to the DM. There are obvious uses for looking into the past so Im not going to cough up an example. Base chance is 80% and 1% for every manifester level. Cool power to use. Hey, you can look into the future...why not the past?

BRAIN BLAST
Telepathic (Cha)
[Mind-Affecting]
Level: Psion 2
Display: Me, Au
Manifestation Time: 1 action
Range: Close (25’+5’/2 levels)
Target: 1 creature
Duration: Instantaneous
Saving Throw: Will negates
Power Resistance: Yes
Power Points: 3
Similar to the attack modes, a psion can brain blast a non-psionic creature for 1d4 points of temporary Cha damage. A mind blank spell or raised psionic defense mode completely foils a brain blast but unshielded, flat-footed psionic creatures are subject to it.
ROAR
Psychometabolism (Str)

Level: Psion 4, Psychic Warrior 4
Display: Au
Manifestation Time: 1 action
Range: Close (25’+5’/2 levels)
Area: Cone
Duration: Instantaneous (see text)
Saving Throw: Fortitude partial
Power Resistance: Yes
Power Points: 7
You emit a horrendously loud roar. Creatures failing their saves are stunned 1d4 rounds; creatures that succeed are shaken for a similar period.

Block sense
Telepathy
Level: Psion 4
Display: Vi
Manifestation time: 1 action
Range: Medium (100ft. + 10ft./level)
Target: One living creature
Duration: 1 minute/level
Saving throw: Will negates
Power resistance: Yes
Power points: 7
This power allows a telepath to send out an intrusive signal that blocks one of the target creatures five senses. Doing so also has its set backs on the target such as blocking its vision means all others are treated as invisible. Each sense has its own set backs with some being tougher than others. Sight is obvious and so is hearing. Touch, smell, and taste though carries check penalties due to the fact that they have no feeling when touching, smelling, or tasting something. For example, using this power on a dog to block its sense of smell would rend its scent ability useless.
Barrier vision
Clairsentience
Level: Psion 4
Display: Vi
Manifestation time: 1 action
Range: Personal
Target: You
Duration: 1 minute/level
Saving throw: None
Power resistance: No
Power points: 7
This power allows the psion to see through physical barriers such as stone, metal, and wood. These barriers do not become invisible to the viewer but rather become transparent like a window. The range of this sight is 120ft. This power does not allow one to see illusions, spot trap doors, or locate invisible creatures. It also does not see in darkness better than the psions sight can see and it does not function in the area of a negate psionics power.

Wow, this thread is still here. Great stuff. Ive got alot of ideas kicking around so I think its about time to get them out there in the open for people to enjoy and play around with. Maybe Ill throw in some feats among other things. Be back soon enough once Ive collected my ideas together to post.
Ok, time to start posting some ideas. Ill start with one of my favourite ones to date.
Improved Remote Viewing
Clairsentience(Wis)
Level: 6
Display: Au, Vi(the sensor thing...no, Im not going to discuss it, lol)
Manifestation time: 1 hour
Range: Pretty much anywhere (-5 if it is across planes)
Effect: Psionic sensor
Duration: 1 minute/level
Saving Throw: None
Power Resistance: No
Power Points: 11
Basically its almost the same thing as Remote Viewing except it allows you the ability to manifest a few helpful powers along with the power to enhance your remote spying. Hence forth the DCs are +10 higher for Improved Remote Viewing.
Knowledge Remote View Check DC
None* 30
Secondhand(You have heard of the subject) 25
Firsthand(You have met the subject) 20
Familiar(You know the subject well) 15
*You must have some sort of connection to the creature whom you have no knowledge of.
Connection Remote View Check Bonus
Likeness or picture +5
Possession or garment +8
Body part, lock of hair, nail clippings, and so on +10
Ok, so thats basically the workings of the DCs and stuff. Besides that, very little changes except that you are allowed to manifest a few other powers through the power targeting the subject. You can now manifest Missive, Darkvision, Aura Sight, Detect Thoughts, Mind Probe, and Empathy.
There is also a higher level True Remote Viewing as well which has much more capabilities attached to it basically the same thing but with +20 higher DCs and allows for powers such as Tailor Memory and so forth. Thats right it gets better and better as the Remote Viewing power grows. Anyways if youve got any comments on this power (either Improved or True) let me know.

question that has been bugging me
i have Stephen King's rose-red. one of the main characters is an autistic girl named Annie, who is a major psychokinetic/telepath and looks like she has some clair-sentience thrown in as well. now how would you describe her powers, especially the calling of the stones.
here are a few things she can do
call stones, using a picture or model of the house as a focus.
see things in mirrors (like family members talking about her)
telepathy
levitation
i suspect her autism has alot to do with her powers. it would probably be something of an overload to somebody who isn't used to it.
