[QUOTE="DreamChaser, post: 2780249, member: 1190"] I've actually been working on an all psionics game. The PC races were genetically/psionically engineered by an Illithid empire that vanished thousands of years ago. In terms of some of the basic, day to day PC issues. Healing can be done the psychometabolic way (Empathic Transfer + Body Adjustment) I have also created two new powers: A clairsentient power that is obverse to Recall Agony and Death which converts damage into nonlethal damage. A psychoportive power which accellerates time for the target creature, curing but fatiguing them. Clearly none of these are as freeflowing as the endless healing of the wonderfully broken cleric but this can easily add to the fun of the game, plus it makes sense to increase the amount of healing since there are negative concequences to it. The reason I opted to start work on a all-psionics game is because the rules from the XPH are 98% sacred cow free. The system actually utilizes the rules new to 3.x (like the energy descriptors) without the tacked on feel of the magic system. The embrace the freedom of a point based system and offer concepts (such as psionic focus) to integrate the idea of being a psionic creature into other aspects of the game. Anyway those are my thoughts. DC [/QUOTE]
