[QUOTE="RUMBLETiGER, post: 6126325, member: 6674868"] [URL="http://www.d20srd.org/srd/psionic/powers/mindSwitchTrue.htm"]True Mind Switch[/URL] states that it is like [URL="http://www.d20srd.org/srd/psionic/powers/mindSwitch.htm"]Mind Switch[/URL]. Mind Switch reads, in part, "You possess the target’s body..." "You gain the type of your assumed body." "You gain the Strength, Dexterity, and Constitution scores of your assumed body." True Mind Switch says, in part, "If your natural body dies while the subject is in it, you immediately lose one level, but you likewise survive the experience in your new body." So you lose your racial adjustments, gain that body's racial adjustments, along with keeping all those physical scores. You'd keep your mental scores. If he doesn't die in your old body, you don't lose the level. So, however you ensure he doesn't die, should work. We had a Psion in one campaign who's (Player's) ambition was to True Mind Switch into a Black Dragon. The DM was all for it, the game just never got that far. Have fun! Not every Psionic Power is Mind Effecting. Some, like [URL="http://www.dandwiki.com/wiki/SRD:Crystal_Shard"]Crystal Shard[/URL], just kill stuff. Plenty are buffs. Or Battlefield Control like [URL="http://www.d20srd.org/srd/psionic/powers/greasePsionic.htm"]Psionic Grease[/URL]. The mind is the source of the power, but Psionics are as diverse as Arcane spells, you just need to become familiar with your Powers List. the fact that you're a Spell to Power Erudite means you've got plenty more options that won't need to fall into the Mind Effecting category.
