OH THE MADNESS! Asian Campaign flavored - Without going full throttle for anything that might evoke cultural appropriation, present the Mystic as a companion class to the monk, mention monasteries, wandering ascetics and the place that these people have in that society in those kind of campaigns. I notice that it is long term psionic fans that have the biggest issues with the Far Realms flavor. Since these are the people you are probably needing to please the most, especially with integration into Dark Sun and since it is just pretty much flavor text, you might as well please them as well as give alternatives that open people up to other power sources and campaign styles.</blockquote>
