Gliding
Syntax: |
PSI <channel> GLIDING GLIDE <direction> |
Channels: Superstratus, Id |
By changing your molecular structure, you can glide upon any surface, including water. This also confers the ability to waterwalk.
Introspection
Syntax: |
INTROSPECTION |
This is a deeper form of meditation, whereby you can regenerate mana, ego and willpower more quickly.
Ironskin
Syntax: |
PSI <channel> IRONSKIN |
Channels: Superstratus, Id Damage Modifier: variable depending on skill level, max of 30 |
You can thicken your skin to the point where it becomes as hard as iron.
CellAdjustment
Syntax: |
PSI <channel> CELLADJUSTMENT <amount> |
Channels: Substratus |
By focusing on your body at a cellular level, you can transmute your ego into health - though a small amount will be lost in the process.
EnergyContainment
Syntax: |
PSI <channel> ENERGYCONTAINMENT |
Channels: Superstratus, Id Damage Modifier: variable depending on skill level, max of 25 |
Prepare your body to channel and disperse elemental energies, giving you some protection against cold, fire and electricity.
BoneDensity
Syntax: |
PSI <channel> BONEDENSITY |
Channels: Superstratus, Id |
You can harden your bones to help prevent them from breaking.
Shift
Syntax: |
PSI <channel> SHIFT <direction> |
Channels: Superstratus, Substratus, Id |
Pass through walls and wooden doors by slightly moving your body out of phase.
Regeneration
Syntax: |
PSI <channel> REGENERATION |
Channels: Superstratus, Id |
You can regenerate your body's health automatically.
DoublePain
Syntax: |
PSI <channel> DOUBLEPAIN |
Channels: Superstratus, Id |
You can prime your body's system to inflict increased pain upon your touch, increasing the wounds that you cause.
Mindfield
Syntax: |
PSI <channel> MINDFIELD |
Channels: Substratus |
You can wrap a psionic field around your mind which will discharge a backlash against any who attempt to scry you, except for allies. This will also deliver a smaller backlash against those who would use psychic damage against you - excepting those who also have a mindfield active.
Pheromones
Syntax: |
PSI <channel> PHEROMONES |
Channels: Substratus, Id |
By releasing pheromones, you will cause others to fall in love (or at least lust) with you.
BodyFuel
Syntax: |
PSI <channel> BODYFUEL <1-5> |
Channels: Id |
You can generate power from your body, though this is very taxing on your health. For each point of power you convert, you will drain 1000 health. You cannot convert more than 5 power at any time.
Enhancement
Syntax: |
PSI <channel> ENHANCEMENT <STRENGTH|DEXTERITY|SPREAD> |
Channels: Superstratus, Id |
You can enhance your strength or dexterity, or both.
Lifedrain
Syntax: |
PSI <channel> LIFEDRAIN |
Channels: Substratus, Id |
You can reconfigure your nervous system to absorb sustenance from others upon your physical touch.
ForcedSymmetry
Syntax: |
PSI <channel> FORCEDSYMMETRY |
Channels: Superstratus, Id |
Wounds that are inflicted to your arms are distributed evenly among both arms, and wound delivered to your legs are likewise evenly distributed amongst your legs.
Bloodboil
Syntax: |
PSI <channel> BLOODBOIL |
Channels: Substratus, Superstratus |
You can raise the temperature of your blood and cycle it quickly through your body, preventing the health loss normally associated with bleeding (and, indeed, curing the bleeding entirely). This is, however, psionically taxing to maintain.
BioCurrents
Syntax: |
PSI <channel> BIOCURRENTS |
Channels: Substratus, Id |
Your entire metabolism can be configured to hold an electrical current within. If someone touches you, an arc of electricity will be discharged.
SuspendedAnimation
Syntax: |
PSI <channel> SUSPENDEDANIMATION WAKE (to awaken early) |
Channels: Superstratus Power: 10 (any) |
By placing yourself in suspended animation, you will be out of phase with the rest of the world as your body completely heals itself. As you are, you will gradually begin to be healed: first your health, then mana, then ego, then ailments. After that, your health, mana and ego will continue to expand beyond what they normally are. If you break yourself out of suspended animation, you will suffer a balance loss, the loss is greater the sooner you break yourself out of suspended animation.
