[QUOTE="Corinnguard, post: 9564102, member: 7033886"] In Pathfinder, psionics was just another form magic. ;) In 1st edition, psionics was a form of magic known as Psychic Magic. It worked like just an arcane spell or a divine spell except when it came to their spell components. Psychic spells sometimes required Thought and Emotion spell components to work. You had to think and be very emotional when casting such spells. 😋 Second edition Pathfinder renamed this form of magic again by calling it Occult Magic. Types in 5e are more or less a ribbon feature nowadays. If today's Dragonborn existed back in 3e and underwent a type change from Humanoid to Dragon, there would have been a noticeable change in that they would have had Darkvision 60 (and Low-light vision), an Immunity to sleep and paralysis effects, and an immunity to spells those that targeted humanoids. Hmm...a draconic take on Fey Ancestry? ;) [I]You have advantage on saving throws you make to avoid or end the sleep and paralyzed conditions on yourself. [/I] We need planar subspecies of the known species in 5.5e. ;) [/QUOTE]
