My first D&D character ever was a thri-kreen psionicist/ranger with a STR score of like 20, and I couldn't have asked for a more gonzo or rip-roaring intro to the game. Our battles would generally begin with me rolling the halfling fighter at the enemy like a bowling ball (the halfling generally blew his attack roll, which just made it funnier), and another tactic was me opening a dimension door portal under an enemy's feet, with the return portal a foot or so above so the enemy would be caught in an endless loop of falling into and through the power. So much for that 20' tall beasthead giant boss!I loved the psionics system and how it worked, but the whole psionics-is-different approach (of which I was a purist and an evagelist and frankly a real jerk for a long time) really made things wacky. Great memories, but whoo-baby would I never want to try and run it myself. Not with players like me around!</blockquote>
