The Hive is (realy) Dead! Long Live the Hive Mind!

That is more than fine with me. I am tickled that someone actually decided to play a "non combat orientated" psionic class for a change!

Er. . . right. Non-combat.
*looks at mind thrust and plots the crushing of his opponents' minds*

Also tempted by the idea of getting a psicrystal and the feat that gives the psicrystal a second personality trait. Give it Sympathetic and Bully. A light side and a dark side. It stands on one shoulder.

"C'mon, kill him. You know you want to!"

Then crawls to the other shoulder.

"No, try and understand where he is coming from. Forgiveness is the path to enlightenment"

Okay, so maybe it's a waste of two feats for the shoulder angel/shoulder devil effect. But the idea amuses me =)

No worries Fru. If you want a soulknife a soulknife you can be.

Cool.

 

[hafrogman]

hmmm ... what race will your psion be frogman?

Human. MAYBE half elf. Depends how I feel about skills and races when I make the decision.

Fru could be my (half)brother. Or he could hate me. Whichever. Or both.

Now you see why many people try out the kineticist variant in the beginning.

As you might have guessed the psicrystal is to the psion as the "familiar" is to the wizard.

I was actually thinking that a gnome would be interesting ... one that had old Svirfneblin ancestry that has manifested itself in you and given you the inherent talent for the psionics you possess.

If so one possibility is to keep the charisma low and swap the strength with the constitution. Once the racial bonuses kick on you would have an 18 constitution, which would be helpful for a psion ... they get 1d4 hit points.

Yeah, I'm vaguely familiar with everything, and have the old 3.0 psion book, just not the new one. Except, as far as I can tell, a psion doesn't get a crystal for free, they have to spend a feat.

Nah, if I were going to play a gnome I'd swap Con for Int, strap on a d12 HD and let the world tremble at the coming of GNUBBINS THE BERSERKER.

 

[Mycanid]

Okay dokey. Yes ... psicrystal is a feat I believe (thinks hard for a sec and still is not sure).

 

[hafrogman]

Time for me to get going. I'll see you all later.

Adios. We'll keep hacking away at this thing here ... no hurry.
