We saw how well shoehorning every caster into Wizard went in the game's past, and the answer was people started making more classes the moment they could because, shock and horror, D&D's wizard isn't the be all and end all of every spellcasting concept one can come up withLet's re-establish: We're talking about Dungeons and Dragons that has, for most of this game's life, had a dedicated psion that was different from wizards and was just, a psion. And now you're saying "Well, too bad, if you wanted to redo your old psion characters in the new edition, here's your only option, not even your own base class that can't do half the things and you've just got to feed off the scraps from wizard"Yeah, no one psion could but, guess what? I'm not asking for a one psion class to eat alll that. I'm asking for a psion class to be a base Psion Thing by itself for people who want to delve more into those mechanics and concepts seperately, probably with its own subclasses that do their own takes on the concept. The other class subclasses can all stay around fine, they just can grab a few more abilities due to psions being more supported4/6 of the suggested backgrounds for Aberrant Mind have to do with aberrations and, hell, the name alone has it. Its clearly an aberration themed one and not just "General Psionic Powers" themed</blockquote>
