[QUOTE="charlesatan, post: 1630409, member: 20870"] 1) Yes, in a way, psionics wasn't given full attention. And why? Because Eberron is mainly designed to work with the existing material. And most of the existing material deals with what's in the core books. Personally, I would have wanted to see one psionic prestige in the book but hey, just because it wasn't in the main book doesn't mean they won't publish it next time. I honestly think that a good room for psionics in Eberron would be in the supplements (unfortunately, aside from the published adventures, Sharn is the only known release so far, so I guess everything else will have to wait until next year). 2) Note that psionic support and integration is not necessarily equal to "this is a full-blown psionic setting". I mean it is delegated a continent (and a whole power group of would-be invaders). And it's not like the Kalashtar aren't around the main continent. Heck, who knows what plots the Inspired have, and the far reaching consequences they are capable of? 3) The lack of Psionic NPCs is probably due to reasons in #1. They won't make sense to other GMs unless they invested in the Expanded Psionics Handbook. And while other houses can conceivably have psions and psychic warriors, they won't be many, and it's also said somewhere in the book that it's the Kalashtars that usually "train" other people or introduce them to psionics. 4) There's no reason why you can't have your adventures in "the other continent, where all the psionics is happening". Of course if you want to be faithful to the WotC source material, we'll have to wait when the official regionbook gets published but that doesn't stop you for creating your own scenarios. [/QUOTE]
