[QUOTE="SteelDraco, post: 1200096, member: 359"] I like the basic idea - it sounds like you'd be going toward more of a feat-based psionics system, which I don't necessarily think of as a bad thing. The big problem you'll have is figuring out your list of powers, obviously. The spell seeds from the Epic Level book might be helpful here, depending on how broad you want to get. If you can find a conversion of the Lone Wolf series of books, that'd likely be a good place to draw from as well. A few thoughts, off the top of my head. Con-Based Alter Form (Talons through Shapechange) Bioregeneration (Biofeedback, Body Adjustment, Regeneration, etc) Improve Body (stat-boosting stuff, though I'm not sure what else you could do.) Int-Based Fabrication (creating objects from nothingness) Harbinger (the various Astral Construct/Harbinger powers) Create Fire/Acid/Electricty/Cold (however you wanted to do this - I'd probably do one of each, and allow more or less the same effects, possibly with a special effect option based on the element) Wis-Based Sense (start with Detect Psionics and similar, work up to True Seeing) Know Future (Combat Prescience, Augury, Divination, etc) Far Seeing (not sure what you'd do for low-level effects here, but this would be the scrying tree) Temporal Control (Hustle through a Time Stop-esque power, with possible stops in Haste and Slow effects) Manifest Force (Telekinesis, could also do Concussion powers in this line - that'd depend on how many different powers you were thinking of having) Sense the Past (Object Reading and similar effects) Cha-Based Probe Mind (Detect Thoughts up through an advanced Mindwipe/Mind Probe effect) Influence Mind (Charm Person through Mass Domination) Disturb Mind (Daze, Confusion, Mass Insanity) Mental Assault (mental attack powers - things like Psychic Blast and Id Insinuation, converted to powers a la Mindscapes) [/QUOTE]
