[QUOTE="Argyle King, post: 7878680, member: 58416"] 4E also [I]did [/I]have what was effectively a psionic Warlord. Offhand, I don't remember the name. The more I think about it, the more my previous post makes sense, but it depends upon how psionics are defined in 5E. In 4E, they appear to be some metaphysical blend of mind-magic and qi attached to lifeforce. Using that definition, a psionic Warlord (Psilord?) would -similar to what I said previous- kinda hack into other targets. That can be explained through meditation and gaining an understanding of the metaphysical forces which bind life together. Some Psilords focus on honing their own inner power ("ego", you might say) and finding ways to channel it into their allies to buff and heal those around them. This would be the Cha-lord from 4E. It could also be sort of a middle ground between a divine cleric channeling power and a druid understanding the underpinnings of life. Other Psilords focus on more of an academic study of how each being's inner "id" functions and operates in conjunction with metaphysical concepts such as the soul, sentience, and etc. This would be the Int-lord from 4E. This version combines the academic study of a wizard with the tactical planning of a battlemaster. [/QUOTE]
